    The story is a loose, somewhat confusing narrative tied to the Hololive Error web series, requiring viewers to watch related anime episodes for full context. While it offers interesting elements and multiple endings, the pacing and delivery are uneven, and its horror aspect is mild, often feeling more like a walking simulator. Overall, the story may appeal to Hololive fans but lacks depth and clarity for newcomers.

    • “The story is weird but interesting; you can try and go for the 3 endings, but I would say just go for the 3rd ending and once you finish, click the 'another story' option in the menu and check the episodes which might give more context to the story.”
    • “Has 3 branching endings and beautiful storytelling.”
    • “As for the story, it isn't served to you on a plate; there are different threads that the player is left (to an extent) to weave together.”
    • “If you're invested in the hololive error series, you can rest assured knowing that this game contributes absolutely nothing in terms of world building or new story.”
    • “Even if you're a fan of holo there's not really many reason to play this, story is barebones and there aren't that many voiced lines.”
    • “And of course, the story pacing was all over the place coming from a company with no experience in horror.”

    The game delivers a consistently creepy and engaging atmosphere, bolstered by effective sound design and visuals that appeal especially to Hololive fans. While it may lack intense scares and substantial content, its tense, eerie mood and occasional jump scares maintain player interest. Overall, the atmosphere is a strong point, though some wish for more depth and additional horror elements.

    • “On the plus side; the graphics are quite nice, the atmosphere manages to remain creepy, and all the little VTuber references and easter eggs would make any Hololive fan happy.”
    • “The entire atmosphere is overall pretty creepy and the sounds and music play a pretty decent role in the atmosphere as well.”
    • “Visuals are serviceable, sound and atmosphere are great too, I like the designs of the places you play in and the controls are simple.”
    • “Even though the atmosphere is creepy, there is not much content in the game.”
    • “Could have used a couple more jump scares to take advantage of the tense atmosphere.”
    • “Not really scary, but definitely a creepy atmosphere.”

    The gameplay is generally described as basic and monotonous, resembling typical modern horror walking simulators, with a slow pace that makes it feel bland and unengaging. While there are some technical issues, they do not significantly impact gameplay, though the overall experience is considered dull and lacking depth.

    • “The gameplay loop is on the shorter side but that doesn't make it bad.”
    • “Game has some more or less technical mistakes that should be hidden in production but it doesn't affect gameplay.”
    • “I'll give a link to my playthrough on YouTube below for anyone who wants to see a sample of gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay is mostly the same as any other modern horror (walking simulators, roller coasters), but due to the problem I mentioned before about the game's pace, the gameplay feels even more bland.”
    • “The gameplay is dull and just pressing W.”
    • “Boring gameplay, quote on quote scares are terrible, and just a complete waste of time.”
  • music

    The music in the game is widely praised for its fantastic, colorful, and atmospheric soundtrack, enhancing the overall experience significantly. Fans appreciate the well-crafted original soundtrack and main menu music, though some note the absence of in-game music beyond background noises. Overall, the sound design contributes effectively to the game's eerie ambiance.

    • “But I'd like to point out this fantastic soundtrack, simply marvelous and colorful; the rest of the game is just a bonus (albeit a very good one).”
    • “As a Hololive fan, I think this game is a very cool project that COVER has come up with, and I love everything they release leading up to this game (video, interview, original soundtrack, etc.).”
    • “The entire atmosphere is overall pretty creepy, and the sounds and music play a pretty decent role in the atmosphere as well.”
    • “[*] Lack of any music track playing for the entire game (despite there being a full album made for the web series), only background noise.”
    • “I played through this with the Luigi's Mansion soundtrack.”
    • “The entire atmosphere is overall pretty creepy and the sounds and music play a pretty decent role in the atmosphere as well.”

    The graphics are generally praised for their smooth visuals, creepy atmosphere, and fan-pleasing VTuber references, though some find the art style confusing.

    The game suffers from significant optimization issues, including frequent FPS drops and stuttering that impact playability. Performance problems are especially noticeable in graphics, UI, and character animations, making it poorly optimized even on capable PCs.

    • “The main issue is the game optimization; certain parts suffer a lot of FPS drops and become nearly unplayable.”
    • “It's also really badly optimized; my PC had bigger problems running this than it had running Doom Eternal.”
    • “The game could use some optimization, mostly in the graphics and some UI options as well as character animations.”
  • humor

    The humor in the game is often derived from its quirky character reactions and unexpected situations, such as serious horror scenarios featuring hololive girls and the presence of a funny dog character. However, the lack of facial expressions on character models can make some moments feel awkward rather than genuinely funny.

    • “I don't recommend this as a horror game but it was very funny to see the Hololive girls in serious horror situations.”
    • “Doggo makes this game funny.”
    • “Although some of the jokes are funny.”
