The gameplay has been criticized for being monotonous and lacking depth, with jumpscares described as more annoying than frightening. Players feel that the randomized mechanics, such as scattered 'possessed objects', do not add meaningful challenge or engagement, leading to an overall disappointing experience compared to the promising trailer.
