    The story is generally well-written and features solid voice acting, offering a straightforward, mystery-driven experience that may appeal to casual players seeking scares. However, it lacks depth and resolution, leaving some plot points feeling incomplete and underdeveloped. While it has potential and shares similarities with other narrative games like Firewatch, the pacing and a sparse backstory may disappoint those expecting a richer, fully resolved storyline.

    • “I really enjoyed the story and would recommend it.”
    • “Overall has such huge potential, story was nice, voice acting on the dot, graphics incredible, just needs a lot of stuff fixed.”
    • “As for the main story, it's really nicely written except I don't like the ending, it kinda leaves a hole where we didn't find anything, and everything we did throughout the game feels like it was for nothing.”
    • “However, if you're a casual player looking for a straightforward story and some scares, I would still recommend it. Just do not go in expecting a fully resolved ending.”
    • “For this game, I don't have a lot to say but it didn't live up to my expectations. There isn't much to it except the main story, and that would be okay if the map wasn't huge. Hiking takes long and I feel like we could do so much more than just hold W and Shift.”
    • “There needs to be more visual scares and a bit more backstory given to what is going on. The sound effects are solid and the whole game is voice acted, which is nice.”

    The graphics are impressive and deliver a visually appealing experience even on low settings, though users suggest adding an FOV slider for better visibility. Overall, the visuals show great potential, complementing the story and voice acting well.

    • “Overall has such huge potential, story was nice, voice acting on point, graphics incredible, just needs a lot of stuff fixed.”
    • “Graphics are good; I put everything on low and got good FPS. I only suggest adding an FOV slider because we didn't need binoculars to see the other tower since the FOV was like 5.”
