  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received criticism for its frustrating mechanics, particularly regarding the inconsistent grav hammer and movement controls, which detract from the overall experience. Players feel that the focus on grappling and wall-running mechanics overshadowed the potential for a more engaging creature design, leading to a lack of enjoyment.

    • “I quit playing while I was in the room where you have to turn on all the lights because I wasn't having fun with the inconsistent grav hammer (which feels and operates like a normal hammer) and frustrating movement and monster mechanics.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

However, some reviews note that certain plot points can feel predictable or clichéd, which may detract from the overall experience. Overall, the storytelling is generally well-received, with a mix of praise and criticism regarding its originality.

  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat excessive at times, indicating that it can feel repetitive or tedious.

    • “The game can feel a bit grindy at times.”
    • “There are moments when the grinding becomes excessive.”
  • atmosphere
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere is effectively crafted with a slow, eerie sound design that enhances the spooky elements of the puzzle game. However, this pacing may not be as effective during chase sequences, where a more intense atmosphere could be beneficial.

    • “The sound team did an excellent job of creating a slow atmosphere that fits perfectly in a spooky puzzle game, although it can be intense when you're being chased.”
