The story is centered on a dark and derivative plot involving prisoners trapped in silence, leading to their descent into violence and revealing their inner demons. While some find the concept intriguing, others feel it lacks originality and fails to deliver a compelling narrative compared to similar tales like the Russian sleep experiments.
“The whole thing the plot revolves around!”
“I think it's awesome my wife listens to creepy pastas, but to be turned down in the sack so she can listen to a derivative story about prisoners being locked in a totally silent room for days until they kill each other and let out their own demonic selves, which was told much better in the Russian sleep experiments, sucked.”

“It's pre-purchased models dumped into a pre-purchased map, with the bare minimum of gameplay to qualify as an original product.”
