Gameplay is visually appealing with impressive animations and effective jumpscares, but it suffers from pacing issues, requiring players to wait excessively while running back and forth. The primary incentive to continue playing lies in collecting achievements, which can take time to unlock as players familiarize themselves with the controls and mechanics.
- “I like how it looks, the animations and sounds are cool, the jumpscares work... and then the gameplay makes you wait for 10 minutes running back and forth until a bunch of flies spawn.”
- “The real benefit to continuing playing this game is collecting some achievements which may take a while to get as soon as you master the controls and the mechanics of this game.”
