    The story is intriguing and thoughtfully crafted, featuring unique environments and Spanish voice acting with subtitles. While the narrative offers some substance beyond typical horror tropes, the gameplay detracts from fully appreciating it. Overall, it's a commendable storytelling effort for a free-to-play horror game.

    • “For one, it has voice acting, a variety of different levels with their own unique environments, and a story that, although isn't very good, was at least thought out and holds some substance to it.”
    • “All you really do is walk through different environments while the story unfolds and witness the types of things that appear to be haunting John as he comes to terms with what he's done.”
    • “The voice acting, although not great, is spoken in Spanish, but there are at least subtitles automatically implemented so non-Spanish speakers will know what is going on in the story.”
    • “I will give the game some credit for its attempts at storytelling, and for doing something other than jump scares and page collection.”

  • graphics

    The game's graphics receive mixed reviews, with some praising their unexpected quality and immersive world-building, while others criticize them as inconsistent or unoriginal, possibly sourced from asset stores. Overall, the visual design is seen as a positive aspect by some but detracts from the experience for others due to lack of cohesion and quality.

    • “This game, no, this work of art has such immensely beautiful voice acting, world building, graphics and gameplay that it will instantly transform anyone who plays into the best version of them that they can be.”
    • “They have settings for graphics but not volume.”
    • “The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like some or all of them are 'borrowed' from asset stores or wherever.”
    • “The graphics are horrible, the controls are floaty and clunky.”
    • “The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like some or all of them are "borrowed" from asset stores or wherever.”
    • “It's a pretty dark premise for a game that sadly doesn't live up to the standard of quality due to its slightly awkward controls, inconsistent graphics and general game design.”

    • “This game, no, this work of art has such immensely beautiful voice acting, world building, graphics and gameplay that it will instantly transform anyone who plays into the best version of them that they can be.”
    • “The story is fairly intriguing and the Spanish voice acting is better than I'd expect from a F2P horror game, but it's not worth enduring the insipid gameplay to hear it.”
