    The gameplay features unique mechanics such as sound and scent detection, adding a layer of strategy; however, players criticize it for being overly repetitive and lacking variety after the tutorial. Additionally, severe server lag detracts from the overall experience, overshadowing the potential of this polished title from a solo developer.
