  • graphics

    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    29% positive mentions, 58% neutral mentions, 13% negative mentions

    The graphics are divisive, featuring intentionally rough, PS1-style pixelated visuals that some find artistically compelling and atmospheric, while others see them as low-quality and unpleasant. Players appreciate the game's unique and surreal aesthetic, with options to smooth the graphics for clarity. Overall, the unconventional art style greatly contributes to the game's distinct mood and appeal, despite mixed reactions to its clarity and polish.

    • “A well executed game, with tons of secrets, and great attention to detail through the rough art style.”
    • “A weird and varied experience, its many unexpected twists and turns buoyed by the always stellar atmosphere, courtesy of the strong sound design and PS1-styled visuals, always popular in this genre, their jagged edges and distance-obscuring fog breathing some staid air into these desolate non-places.”
    • “The PS1-style graphics and audio are a pleasure to behold, and that’s what kept me going.”
    • “The graphics here are particularly awful, pixelated textures with badly made low poly assets intended to look "jarring" and "artistic", so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam.”
    • “I think the game graphics should have been cleaned up from the start to be honest.”
    • “The sound effects, as well as the visuals, are painful to experience.”

  • gameplay

    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    31% positive mentions, 46% neutral mentions, 23% negative mentions

    The gameplay features a unique time management mechanic where players carefully choose actions within a limited five-day period, offering a distinctive pacing without pressure. While some find the mechanics unconventional and lacking traditional challenge, others appreciate its artistic, surreal approach and innovative elements within the walking simulator genre. Overall, gameplay is more focused on experiential and aesthetic expression than on gripping or immersive challenges.

    • “There is a time management mechanic where certain actions take up your real-world time, and you only have 5 days, so you need to carefully choose what you do based on your goals.”
    • “You choose how you wish to spend your last five days, and the game does not pressure you into hasty decisions based on constantly flowing time during gameplay.”
    • “There's a lot of unique mechanics, and for the walking simulator genre (non-derogatory), it's a surreal masterpiece.”
    • “Because this is more 'art' than game, it prioritizes artistic and experiential elements so heavily that gameplay is an afterthought.”
    • “The gameplay for Mouthole is rather unique in the fact that you can’t totally pin down what exactly the gameplay is, per se.”
    • “There is also a time management mechanic in the game where certain actions take up your time in the real world and you only have 5 days, so you kind of want to carefully choose what you do based on your goals.”

  • music

    The story is abstract and unconventional, lacking clear dialogue or traditional characters, which some may find off-putting, but others appreciate its complexity, creativity, and hidden depth. While the plot can seem elusive or metaphorical, it encourages personal interpretation and reveals more intrigue the deeper you explore. Overall, the narrative complements the game's unique style and atmosphere rather than following a straightforward storyline.

    • “Incredibly cool in both style, music, and story.”
    • “The narrative may only look simple on the surface, but this story is not as straightforward; the more you play, the more complex and stranger it gets.”
    • “Very deceiving game; it's a lot smarter and more creative than it looks, with lots of content, tons of secrets, and an intriguing story to go along with it.”
    • “No story.”
    • “Not my cup of tea really, don't really like the abstract environments, characters, and story, but seems well made.”
    • “I may not necessarily understand what the plot of the game is about, but you can come up with your own conclusion either way - something about your teeth hygiene, which I assume is a metaphor for something else.”
