  • gameplay1 mentions

    The gameplay is enjoyable both solo and in multiplayer, with a significant advantage when playing with friends. The expansive environment continually unlocks new rooms, and even if players don't succeed initially, they can retry with some advantages, though randomized elements ensure a fresh experience each time.

    • “The gameplay was both fun solo and with friends. It is a lot easier if you have more people to play with. The room itself feels massive, constantly opening more and more rooms. Even when you don't make it the first time, you can play again with a bit of a head start, but some answers are randomized, so it will be different.”
