The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many praising the fantastic visuals and lighting, particularly on high-end displays like OLEDs. However, players report significant issues such as choppy performance, disappearing textures, and frame rate drops, which detract from the overall experience. While some visuals are impressive, the lack of optimization and adjustable settings has led to frustration among users.

“I have an LG OLED and the lighting/graphics were great eye candy.”

“I experienced constant frame rate drops with an RTX 3080 and i9 processor no matter what I selected out of the very few graphic settings.”
“Now, for some reason, textures keep disappearing, making the game look like it came straight from the vaults of 2000, and this can't be my graphics card, as it endures a lot of games in ultra settings.”

The gameplay is criticized for being repetitive and lacking depth, with players primarily sneaking past uninspired AI and facing poorly executed scares. Many found the mechanics confusing, leading to frustrating moments like softlocks, while the overall experience is marred by poor optimization and an overly dark environment.
“Every location is one and done; gameplay is nothing but sneaking past dull AI, and the 'scares' are more obnoxious than frightening.”
“This is yet another indie first-person horror game with poor optimization and boring gameplay.”
“The environment is also way too dark, and gameplay involves timed sections and running from an enemy with no way to defend yourself.”

The game's stability is marked by a mix of minor glitches and bugs that, while not game-breaking, can detract from the overall experience. Players report humorous moments arising from these issues, but also note that the game features good visuals, albeit with some concerns regarding darkness that may require adjustments in settings.
“Unfortunately, it's a poorly made game. Underneath all those nice shiny assets, you encounter glitches, bugs, a lack of story elements, and mediocre chase scenes that make no sense, leading to constant moments of frustration.”
“Game glitches aren't game-breaking, mostly just silly stuff. For instance, when the bald lady saw me through the wall, I just had a laugh and restarted from the checkpoint.”
“Visuals are good, but there were small glitches. Overall, it's a very nice-looking game. One issue was the darkness; I had to change the gamma control in settings because I wasn't able to find things with the default settings.”

The game's atmosphere is characterized by excessive darkness that fails to effectively use light reflections, creating an unsettling yet ultimately unfulfilling experience. While there are good ideas present, they are overshadowed by frustrating gameplay choices and a vague story, leading to a sense of oppression without genuine terror. Overall, the atmosphere is marred by technical limitations and design decisions that detract from the intended experience.
“Overall, good atmosphere and ideas, lost in the middle of some frustrating game choices from a bygone era where games were meant to be hard due to technical issues.”
“Despite the atmosphere of the game being set with a flashlight, it is excessively dark and does not effectively utilize light reflections, resulting in a prolonged unsettling and oppressive experience, with nothing truly terrifying happening.”
“Graphics are average. The gameplay is ruined by adding a monster that will chase you in any direction, leading to frequent deaths. The atmosphere is too dark with a vague story.”
