Gameplay is characterized by a critical reliance on batteries, which can be scarce, creating tension and challenge. The inclusion of environmental elements like bursting lightbulbs and pipes enhances the psychological horror experience, maintaining a sense of suspense and jump scares even after extended playtime.
“Batteries are one of the most important items needed in the game, but at times they seem to be few and far between. One time, I opened the lockers at the beginning near the cell and didn't find a single battery! Bursting lightbulbs and pipes add a great touch to the psychological experience and jump scares. Even after almost 9 hours of gameplay, it still creates this scenario for me.”
“The gameplay is incredibly immersive, with each moment filled with tension and excitement. The mechanics are intuitive, making it easy to get lost in the experience.”
“I love how the gameplay keeps you on your toes. The combination of exploration and survival elements creates a thrilling atmosphere that keeps you engaged.”

“The controls are clunky and unresponsive at times, making it frustrating to navigate through the environment. This really detracts from the overall experience.”
