    The gameplay is criticized for being monotonous and unengaging, primarily involving repetitive tasks like navigating through similar rooms and matching papers based on color and name. While the alternate history setting is appreciated, the core mechanics are deemed lackluster and tedious, leading to a disappointing overall experience.

    • “While I enjoy the weird alternate history world it presents, the gameplay leaves much to be desired.”
    • “When you finally figure out how to play, the gameplay consists of walking from one copy-pasted room to another, clicking on dozens of pieces of paper looking for the one with the correct name on it.”
    • “The big reveals are lackluster, and even the basic 'insert papers' mechanic doesn't go beyond color/name matching.”

  • graphics

    The graphics and visual design of the game have been widely criticized as "disgusting" and "horrible," with users highlighting an unintuitive user interface that complicates navigation and retrieval of items. Players express frustration over the difficulty in accessing previously collected papers, leading to a cumbersome experience.

    • “The graphics and visual design are disgusting. The UI is so unintuitive that you can't access any of the other papers you've picked up. You end up searching through the other copy-paste rooms to find the same paper you picked up just 2 minutes prior.”
    • “The graphics and visual design are horrible!”
