    The gameplay is praised for its unique and fun mask mechanics, drawing comparisons to Majora's Mask, and offers diverse experiences through multiple endings and varied sections like mazes and shooting.

    • “The different endings provide drastically different gameplay and story elements which is a cool bonus.”
    • “Despite being much more linear and short compared to the dev's previous game, it manages to have some diverse gameplay with a maze and a shooting section.”
    • “My first playthrough was completely ruined because I got the not-so-secret ending (and got it three times after because my game was somehow bugged), which makes the game only 30 minutes long and offers practically zero gameplay.”
    • “The game features 2 major sections of gameplay compared to the alternative's single small one, which impacts the overall experience.”
    • “Despite being much more linear and short compared to the developer's previous game, it still manages to offer some diverse gameplay including a maze and a shooting section.”

    • “A bit confusing on the story aspect with a lot of jumping around, but I think it added to the uneasiness that the atmosphere provided!”
