The game suffers from significant stability issues, particularly related to interaction mechanics, where rapid button presses can lead to bugs such as disabled mouse look and unresponsive controls. While these problems primarily occur during interactions, the overall gameplay experience remains mostly stable otherwise.
“The game is quite buggy; interactions can often stack, especially if you're triggering them quickly, leading to odd problems. Sometimes mouse look will get disabled if interacting many times with the 'detour' door in quick succession, and sometimes controls altogether will stop working. In my case, this happened after finding the blue button and then quickly interacting with the radio. It's mostly fine outside of 'e' (interact) button presses.”

The graphics are criticized for presenting a muddied and mixed aesthetic that falls short compared to the higher quality visuals found in titles from developers like Chilla's Art and other notable creators in the j-horror genre.
