Overall, the gameplay is described as satisfying and simplistic, with decent graphics and a compelling story, though the pacing and some mechanics could use improvement.

    • “On the one hand, there are a lot of points where the game is really clunky: sound effects, story (why is this girl wandering around the mansion? entering because of the rain makes sense), a whole lot of content I missed out on for telling the pink-haired girl (I'm bad with names, sorry) that I don't trust her, constantly dying, hard mode making chase scenes not fun, puzzles where the answer is seemingly impossible to figure out on your own (like kicking down a door, this is a mechanic that is never used or explained or hinted at up to that point).”
    • “Enemies are instant kill, but you can take damage by stepping on traps (and heal with healing potions), which can be confusing until you understand the mechanic.”
    • “Gameplay/puzzles: like most puzzle games, some of the puzzles make sense and are intuitive, while others make no sense.”
