  • gameplay

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    60% positive mentions, 20% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions

    The gameplay features standard FPS level design combined with interrogation elements that offer limited impact on the story. Mechanics are solid and complemented by immersive audio and cutscenes, providing an enjoyable experience even for players less skilled in complex mechanics.

    • “Fun little game, good art direction with immersive audio and gameplay.”
    • “The mechanics are good and I like the cutscenes.”
    • “I’m not the most suitable player for games that require a lot of mechanical skill, but I still completed it after a lot of tries.”
    • “The gameplay is a common FPS level design with interrogation elements, but most of the interrogations with NPCs achieve little to nothing besides getting the name and role of the NPC in a game where all names, including important ones, are fictionalized.”

  • story

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    75% positive mentions, 25% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The story is generally well-received, praised for its engaging themes and memorable lines, though some users feel it could benefit from further polish to fully realize its potential.

    • “The story is great, and one line immediately stuck with me.”
    • “After some polish the game could work great to tell its story.”
    • “The best thing about this game would be all speaking up in English choice; otherwise, great choices of story to talk about.”

  • optimization

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    25% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 75% negative mentions

    The game's optimization is generally poor, with issues such as the absence of an FPS limiter causing excessively high frame rates. While not the worst, overall performance could be significantly improved.

    • “Optimization is awful.”
    • “No FPS limiter, which is usually where these games are not optimized and I've had some shoot the FPS to 800+.”
    • “This is not the worst but pretty bad as far as optimization.”

  • graphics

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    67% positive mentions, 33% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The graphics feature a distinctive and evocative art style that effectively conveys the game's dense narrative and unsettling atmosphere. While some users find the visuals endearing and impactful, others feel they may be somewhat lacking but still acceptable. Overall, the art direction is praised for enhancing the game's mood and theme.

    • “Very cool art style, appreciate the narrative density and the gall to tackle such a subject, even if superficially.”
    • “The game's atmosphere and art style are truly endearing and uncomfortable.”

  • atmosphere

    The atmosphere is highly praised for its immersive and intense feeling, enhanced significantly by effective sound design that evokes strong emotions and a sense of suspense.

    • “I was super scared when entering the game, and I guess the sound helped a lot in building up the atmosphere.”
    • “I did like the overall atmosphere, reminded me of XIII.”

  • monetization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game's monetization relies heavily on ads, limiting accurate shooting to once every seven in-game days, which some players find to be a unique but restrictive gimmick.

  • music

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The music is praised for its immersive quality and perfectly complements the game's fun and varied environments.
