The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with players consistently citing an excessive number of intrusive ads that disrupt gameplay. Many users express frustration over the inability to effectively purchase ad-free options, leading to refunds and dissatisfaction. While some players enjoy the game itself, the pervasive ads significantly detract from the overall experience.
βTip: If you want no ads, just turn off your internet.β
βThe ads are intrusive and long.β
βToo many ads every seven times you die, and you have to press an ad to get a skin.β
βTrash game, ads every 5 seconds, don't waste your time.β

The gameplay is generally described as fun and addictive, with good graphics and thrilling elements like jumpscares. However, players express a desire for more balance in movement speed, additional gameplay mechanics such as multiplayer options, smarter enemies, and varied maps to reduce repetitiveness. While the core experience is enjoyable, many reviewers hope for updates that introduce fresh content and improvements.
βFun mechanic and very addictive; I honestly enjoy the game and all.β
βMy gameplay is great: good graphics, nice jumpscares, and lots of thrill.β
βPerfect game: the ragdoll physics and the epic gameplay are very much approved.β
βThe movement is horribly fast, making it too difficult for the monster or the bots to keep up. A running mechanic with a stamina meter would help balance the player's speed.β
βThe gameplay becomes repetitive quickly; you just do your task, get a key, go to a door, and catch all the humans. It's interesting at first, but it gets boring with regular play.β
βWhile the graphics are okay and there's a decent variety of skins, I wish the maps in chapters 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 were different from the previous chapters.β

The story of the game is structured across 14 chapters, each featuring five missions and a player-controlled monster, creating a dynamic gameplay experience. While players enjoy the engaging narrative and the thrill of jump scares, there are suggestions for improvement, such as adding more missions and expanding the game world for enhanced enjoyment. Overall, the story is well-received, but players desire more content to deepen their experience.
βOne of the best games I have ever played. I would love to see infinite time added, as it would make the experience even more enjoyable. Additionally, having 10 missions to complete and a larger map with an upper floor would make it my dream game.β
βThe story is incredibly shallow and fails to engage the player on any meaningful level.β
βI found the plot to be predictable and filled with clichΓ©s, making it hard to stay invested.β
βThe character development is lacking, leaving me feeling disconnected from the story and its events.β
