The game successfully establishes a strong horror atmosphere, immersing players in a dark, eerie environment. However, the overly bright and harsh flashlight detracts from the experience, making it difficult to interact with objects and diminishing the overall tension.
- “The game has a solid horror atmosphere, immersing you in a chilling environment that keeps you on edge.”
- “The eerie silence and unsettling sounds create a tense atmosphere that enhances the overall horror experience.”
- “The dimly lit settings and haunting visuals contribute to a captivating atmosphere that draws you deeper into the game's narrative.”
- “The game has a solid horror atmosphere, but the ultra bright and absolutely white flashlight will often ruin your experience completely, as you can't even see the items in the drawers if you come near them with the flashlight turned on. This is frustrating since you will often need to wander in this house without electricity at night, making it impossible to explore without the flashlight.”
