The game features only one room, which significantly limits its replayability, a common trait in escape room-style games. Players may find the experience enjoyable, but the lack of variety means it may not hold long-term interest.
“I think there's only one room in this game, so keep in mind, as with any escape room style game, it's going to have limited replayability.”
