The game's story starts with an intriguing premise and a strong atmosphere, but it suffers from a rushed narrative that leads to a generic ending. While it may serve as a brief "campfire story," it ultimately feels underdeveloped and mediocre for a horror game.
- “The atmosphere is good, and the story/plot is interesting in the beginning, but the game is so short that the story ends quickly, and the final ending feels very basic and generic.”
- “There's a story being told, and if the story is rushed, it loses a lot of what could have made it great.”
- “For a short 'campfire story,' this one is okay, but for a fleshed-out horror game, it's very mediocre.”
- “Because there's a story being told... and if the story is rushed, it loses a lot of what was going to make it great.”
- “For a short little 'campfire story', this one is okay... but for a fleshed out horror game, it's very mediocre.”

The game's atmosphere is generally well-received, featuring an unsettling tension enhanced by the presence of stalking mannequins and a balanced use of jump scares, avoiding over-reliance on typical horror tropes. However, the short length and a basic ending detract from the overall experience, leaving some players wanting more from the story. Despite these drawbacks, the atmosphere is considered a strong point, making the game worth recommending for its price.
- “The game has a nice atmosphere, with only a couple of jump scare parts, avoiding the overuse of scary sound effects, which keeps the experience engaging.”
- “Good atmosphere overall, with an interesting story and plot at the beginning, though the game is short and the ending feels basic.”
- “The atmosphere is unsettling, and the tension builds as these mannequins eerily chase and stalk you.”

The monetization of the game, priced at $3.99, is viewed as relatively fair compared to other titles often criticized for cash grabs; however, some users feel it reflects minimal effort despite a promising concept.
- “For $3.99, I suppose it's not as bad as a lot of games in the past that have been about making a 'cash grab' game, but this one feels like it was minimal effort put behind a decent idea.”
- “The monetization model is frustrating; it feels like every feature is locked behind a paywall.”
- “I understand the need for in-game purchases, but the prices are outrageous for what you actually get.”
