    The game's story is described as simple yet potentially complex, with a flowing narrative that engages players, though it suffers from translation issues that make it difficult to follow. While the underlying plot is intriguing and the horror elements are engaging, technical problems such as wonky controls and freezing can detract from the overall experience. Despite these flaws, some players recommend trying the game for its story, especially given its free availability.

    • “The art and the story are simple yet can be complex; the story flows like grass in the wind. The game is hard yet not anger-inducing, and it doesn't hold your hands. If it did, I bet the hands would be soft and gentle.”
    • “The translation from its original language to English can make it hard to follow what's happening a lot of the time, but it has an interesting story and some engaging horror gameplay.”
    • “Has a great story behind it, and the idea of the game is good.”
    • “The plot is unclear due to terrible translation issues, the controls are wonky, and the game froze mid-game after the first chapter.”
    • “It is free, so I do recommend people play for a few minutes just to get the storyline, but if you are easily irritated by wacky controls, then don't play.”

    The graphics of the game are characterized by low-quality, low-poly 3D visuals, which many players find unappealing and a significant drawback. While some argue that successful games like Minecraft thrive despite poor graphics, the consensus is that high-quality visuals are essential in the gaming medium and failing to deliver them can alienate potential players.

    • “Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high-quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers.”
    • “Developers must learn that Minecraft succeeded despite the bad graphics, not because of them.”
    • “In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D visuals which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably.”
    • “Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers.”
