Gameplay experiences vary widely among players, with some enjoying the fun co-op mechanics and horror references, while others criticize the repetitive nature, performance issues, and poor design choices. Many agree that the game is more enjoyable with friends, but frustrations arise from lag, crashes, and a lack of clear guidance. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a mixed bag, with potential for fun but marred by significant technical shortcomings.
- “It's fun with friends and the shoving mechanic is amazing, thank you cute Hong Kong VTuber man.”
- “5 bucks, the dev is a genius, fun co-op gameplay, great game all around.”
- “Builds upon the gameplay loop of Exit 8 while integrating a lot of other horror movie/game references, along with some fourth-wall breaking moments that felt really comical with friends.”
- “This game has terrible gameplay, terrible performance optimizations, terrible guidance, is too boring, repetitive, and has too much lag. The multiplayer experience is awful (dropped packets), and I don't see why this game has 'mostly positive' reviews while it is a hot mess.”
- “The game repeatedly makes bad gameplay design decisions, such as insta-kill punishments without warning, locking achievements behind arbitrary lower difficulty runs if you played through on a higher difficulty, and requiring multiple playthroughs of identical content to see everything the game has to offer. There are also major issues with performance on 'boss' levels, poorly executed character models, and a badly explained initial premise with vague progression requirements.”
- “This game feels like a bitcoin farmer, with random massive lag moments, tons of crashes, and repetitive gameplay. Don't even bother.”

- “Note: I'm playing on an HP Pavilion 15 laptop with the AMD Ryzen 5 and Radeon Vega 8 graphics, just to give you an idea of what led to my graphics issues - and I played on the lowest possible settings.”
