The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews; while many players praise them as "amazing" and "perfect," others criticize the optimization, noting that playing on high settings can hinder visibility and performance. Some users report significant frame rate drops on higher graphics settings, suggesting that the game may require further optimization and additional content to enhance the visual experience. Overall, the graphics are a highlight for some, but issues with performance and visibility detract from the experience for others.
“I've been in love with it since it came out, and the graphics are perfect.”
“Best game I have ever played; the graphics are amazing.”
“In my opinion, this game is great; I love that the graphics are amazing.”
“Game needs to be worked on more and more maps needed and as animatronic you can't see anything. There is no night vision, and after playing, I didn't find a single item. This is a beta or something, and it just got released, so I did expect it to be buggy and laggy. I recommend you turn your graphic settings as low as possible; having it on full is just way too hard to see and play.”
“Thought that at least the graphics would cover the gameplay of going for a walk into the backrooms? Well, no. If you aren't playing on ultra high graphics and sacrifice your FPS to the moon lord, this game will look like it was drawn in paint and inserted into clicktime.”
“This game is so optimized that on ultra low graphics I have 30 FPS+, while on games like Witcher 3 on full graphics I have stable 80 FPS.”

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with many reporting frequent bugs and issues such as movement problems and visibility challenges, particularly when playing as a robot. While some players acknowledge the game's potential and enjoy it with friends, they emphasize that it is still in development and requires further optimization and additional content to enhance the overall experience.
“Fun game, but I don't recommend it to you. I will tell you in three steps why you won't like it: Step one, it is super buggy. Step two, it is rare for someone to have a server, even rarer for a friend's server. Step three, sometimes when I play as a robot, I can't move or see anything, and I can't open doors, making it not fun for me to be the robot. Why play as a robot if the other players just hide in a room until the game ends? I did not have much fun doing this; I highly don't recommend it.”
“Game needs to be worked on more, and more maps are needed. As an animatronic, you can't see anything; there is no night vision. After playing, I didn't find a single item, but this is a beta or something, and it just got released, so I did expect it to be buggy and laggy. I recommend you turn your graphic settings as low as possible; having it on full is just way too hard to see and play.”
“And buggy bum bum bad.”

The main menu music has been criticized for its abrupt cut-off, which disrupts the listening experience, while some users feel that certain tracks, particularly in case 2, would benefit from a seamless loop. Overall, the soundtrack's execution appears inconsistent, leaving players wanting a more polished audio experience.

“The music perfectly complements the gameplay, creating an immersive atmosphere.”
“The main menu music sets the tone for the game, drawing players in with its engaging melody.”

“After only playing for about 20 minutes, I just didn't really like the game; it was unoptimized, and the maps looked questionable.”
“This game is so poorly optimized that on ultra low graphics, I get over 30 fps, while in games like The Witcher 3 on full graphics, I have a stable 80 fps.”
