The gameplay is criticized for being overly simplistic and lacking depth, leading some to suggest it would be better suited as a visual novel. While it offers a relaxing experience intertwined with elements of fear and curiosity, the absence of engaging mechanics, such as threats from ghosts, leaves it feeling empty compared to other horror titles.
