    The gameplay is characterized as a quirky and fun experience, blending light platforming with item collection and quest completion.

While the platforming mechanics are considered average, the overall gameplay is engaging and enjoyable, making it a worthwhile experience for fans of the genre.

    • “The gameplay was okay; it has some light platforming segments and you also have to collect items in order to complete little quests to progress further. What helps this game stand out from other mascot horror themed games is the fact that you actually get to fight back and not just run and hide like in other mascot horror themed games. It really helped make the gameplay stand out.”
