- “The atmosphere is wonderful and frightening.”
- “Great atmosphere with high tension and some decent scares.”
- “Good game, really strong in atmosphere.”
- “Though the game is very short, it felt like it was going on for nearly an hour because of the atmosphere. I was in a panic the entirety of my playthrough, and I'm sure people who aren't as scared by simple stuff made it through with no issue. I got jumped by every single noise the camera made itself, not just from the entity. Keep making more games; I hope you can create a much longer game in the future to keep us on our toes!”
- “Would like to see the developer build on this because the atmosphere and setting are killer.”
