    Gameplay is criticized for its poorly designed chase mechanics and arbitrary puzzles that often require external help to solve. While some puzzles are enjoyable, they tend to rely on repetitive mechanics, and the introduction of random death mechanics detracts from the overall experience.

    • “The gameplay is engaging and keeps you on your toes with its challenging mechanics.”
    • “I love how the game balances difficulty; it feels rewarding to solve each puzzle.”
    • “The chase mechanic was pretty stupid; it just seemed like a cheap way to get us to run around the room. On three separate occasions, we had to look online for a totally arbitrary answer that made no sense within the game.”
    • “The puzzles in this one are worse, and they added random poorly programmed death mechanics for no reason.”
    • “Puzzles were generally fun, though they tended to involve a lot of the same mechanics.”

  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and annoying, particularly due to the repetitive nature of respawning and the challenges posed by a maze puzzle that adds to the frustration.

    • “Aside from the monsters, there is one maze puzzle that is beyond tedious.”
