    • “I think 7 was a bit more difficult, but this reminds me a lot of 6, which is my favorite. I prefer the later entries, simply because they play better on my Steam Deck, but they're all fun! Highly recommended if you like a strangely cozy little spot-the-difference game that mixes challenges with spooky, silly, and enjoyable, varied gameplay.”
    • “Core gameplay of 'spot the difference' has not changed.”
    • “If you know nothing about this franchise, don't expect crazy scares; gameplay is fairly simple and requires you to pay attention over long periods of time and learn to memorize.”

Players find the creepy anomalies and sudden intruders particularly impactful, contributing to an immersive and thrilling experience. Overall, the visuals are considered impressive and a strong aspect of the game.

    • “The visuals are insane, the jumpscares really make you jump in fear, the anomalies are super creepy and the fact that certain intruders can just jump at your screen still makes me double guess whether or not I should look at my screen when reporting one.”
    • “Graphics have improved slightly yet again, continuing the trend of being semi-realistic while staying within what players would expect out of a game such as this one.”
    • “Sound and visuals are getting better with every iteration.”
