The game's story is largely criticized for its lack of depth and clarity, with players expressing confusion about the narrative and the absence of dialogue. While the atmosphere and jump scares are appreciated, many reviewers feel that the developers should invest more effort into crafting a compelling story to enhance the overall experience. There is hope that future chapters will improve upon this aspect.
“Well, let me start off by saying I loved the atmosphere. It kept me on my toes and I was very freaked out walking around the house. The creepy lady just jumping out in front of you and hearing what sounded like her moaning in the background was unsettling. However, we parked our car and walked through the woods to a strange house, and we have no idea why we are there or what the story is, but I'm willing to give chapter 2 a go on release.”
“I would suggest developers to put more effort into the story and gameplay; don't go only for a few jump scares.”
“I am hoping the future chapters will yield a lot to both the story and horror this game has to offer.”
“Not too much in the way of a story.”
“Game is very short, without story, no dialogue and just plain.”
“There is no story at all in this game.”

The atmosphere of the game is described as both engaging and unsettling, with moments that effectively create tension and fear, particularly through sound design and unexpected encounters. However, some players feel that the lack of a coherent story or background diminishes the overall experience, making it less impactful compared to other horror titles. Overall, while the game has its creepy moments, it struggles to maintain a consistently immersive atmosphere.

“Sometimes the sounds felt spooky and real, which contributed to the atmosphere, but most of the time it felt like something was off.”
“It is a horror game, and to create a spooky atmosphere, you need to provide some context, but there was nothing at all—no reason, no background.”
