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, frame rate drops, disappearing textures, and a lack of graphical options for customization. While the overall aesthetic is appealing, these technical shortcomings detract from the experience, especially in darker environments where visibility can be problematic.

The gameplay is criticized for being repetitive and lacking depth, primarily involving sneaking past uninspired AI and navigating overly dark environments. Players report frustration with timed sections and a lack of defensive options against enemies, leading to a feeling of being softlocked at times. Overall, the experience is described as more annoying than frightening, with no genuine scares or engaging mechanics.
“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 a lack of coherence in gameplay elements. Additionally, some users experienced visual challenges, such as darkness in the game, which required adjustments to settings.
“Unfortunately, it's a poorly made game. Underneath all those nice shiny assets, you also get glitches, bugs, lack of story elements, mediocre chase scenes that make no sense, and constant moments of going 'oh, well that's stupid.'”
“Game glitches aren't game-breaking; mostly silly stuff. I mean, 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 of the game; I had to change the gamma control in settings because I wasn't able to find stuff with the default settings. Maybe that was my system issue.”
