  • The game has a great atmosphere and unique nautical theme, creating a believable sense of unsafety.
  • It's free and offers a short experience that some players found enjoyable, reminiscent of other horror games.

  • monetization
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is criticized for being essentially an advertisement for a product that has not been developed, misleadingly presented as a full game. Users express frustration over the lack of actual content and view it as a waste of time, arguing that it occupies space that could be better used for legitimate games. Overall, the monetization strategy is seen as exploitative and detrimental to the gaming community.

    • “It's an advertisement for a product called 'Dead Abyss', which is intended to be sold incrementally either as a separate full product or through DLC. However, given they haven't touched this for 6 months and nobody bothered playing their advert, it's unlikely that will ever happen.”
    • “Usually the purpose of these advertisements is to get you to shell out money to the developer to buy the full product, but the developer hasn't bothered actually making a product you can buy, leaving this as an advertisement for nothing.”
    • “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and, in some ways, harmful.”
  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is characterized by unique and creative elements, running smoothly overall; however, players have reported some confusion regarding navigation and potential bugs affecting object interaction.

    • “Well-made, runs smoothly, unique and creative gameplay elements.”
    • “It can also be a little confusing as to where you're meant to go, and unless I was misunderstanding something, it also seemed like certain mechanics (such as the ability to pick up certain objects or interact with certain things) wouldn't work, which makes me think there may be bugs that need patching.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is praised for its free and concise nature, drawing comparisons to Monstrum; however, users report experiencing audio and visual glitches, as well as bugs, which detract from the overall scare factor.

    • “The game has a lot of audio and visual glitches that detract from the overall experience.”
    • “There are numerous bugs that make the gameplay less enjoyable.”
    • “While the game is free and short, the stability issues really hinder the immersion.”
  • atmosphere
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
