The graphics in the game receive mixed reviews, with some players criticizing the locked resolution and low-quality visuals that limit customization options. While a few users found the graphics acceptable and even interesting, the overall sentiment leans towards disappointment, particularly in comparison to other free horror games.
“Some of the jumpscares got me and some of the visuals are twisted.”
“An interesting game, and not very scary, not bad graphics, I definitely recommend!”
“While there are options to change the resolution and customize the graphics settings (thanks to the lazy default Unity launcher), the game ignores these and runs at a locked resolution in fullscreen.”
“There's no way for gamers to improve the low-quality graphics.”
“Played on Linux with Proton; it worked for 4 minutes before I uninstalled. The graphics are poor, the sound is poor, the voice acting is very poor and sounds like a computer-synthesized voice. The gameplay is also very poor, as you have to run away from a monster with limited stamina and find keys to unlock doors while trying not to get killed. Don't waste your money; there are much better free horror games out there.”

The gameplay has been criticized for its poor execution, relying heavily on jump scares and featuring frustrating mechanics such as limited stamina and locked doors that detract from the overall experience. Players found the running mechanics awkward and the overall design lacking, leading to a disappointing impression of the game. Many recommend avoiding it in favor of better free horror alternatives.
“I can see the effort behind it through the narrative to the level design, but the execution is plain terrible; horror based on jumpscares and awful gameplay.”
“Played on Linux with Proton; it worked, played for 4 minutes and then uninstalled. Graphics poor, sound poor, voice acting very poor and was a computer synthesized voice. Gameplay very poor; you run away from a monster but have limited stamina and also locked doors which you have to find a key for while trying not to get killed by the monster chasing you. Don't waste your money as you'll find much better free horror games that are way better than this.”
“The running mechanic was really weird.”

The monetization strategy of these games is heavily criticized as exploitative and deceptive, with many titles being labeled as cash grabs that rely on asset flipping and minimal original content. Reviewers express concern over the prevalence of misleading practices, such as fake reviews and the rapid release of low-effort games, suggesting a lack of integrity in the development process. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as prioritizing profit over quality and genuine gaming experiences.
“These guys do nothing but copy premade game templates and game tutorials, fill out a few things using the construction kit templates, slap on an asset-flipped set of sprites/assets, and dump them on Steam and into daily indie game bundles as cash grabs.”
“Trying to get paid for someone else's game templates and assets... at best, this is shovelware; at worst, it's a scam/cash grab.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”
