  • Intriguing premise and setting in an abandoned police precinct.
  • Effective spine-tingling and occasional jump scare moments.
  • Decent narrative that captures interest despite brevity.
  • Very short gameplay with shallow puzzle design and limited interactivity.
  • Underwhelming presentation, including blank story backgrounds and non-functional lightswitches affecting atmosphere.
  • Lack of meaningful horror elements and a banal, unsatisfying ending with no replay value.
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally seen as bland and underwhelming, lacking engaging elements or excitement. While the story receives some praise, the gameplay itself is considered unimpressive and in need of improvement.

    • “The gameplay and presentation are way too bland and there simply isn’t much happening during the game.”
    • “The presentation and gameplay are really underwhelming.”
    • “The gameplay isn’t really much better.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is interesting and conveyed through protagonist monologues, but its presentation feels minimalistic and lacks visual support like background images or interactive elements, which detracts from the overall engagement.

    • “The story was interesting, some gameplay aspects could be tweaked.”
    • “There are a couple of sequences where the protagonist tells the story through monologues, although they are presented against a blank black background.”
    • “Not every game needs fancy cutscenes, but even an indie developer could have included a few picture slides in the background while the story unfolds.”
    • “There are a couple of sequences where the protagonist tells the story through monologues, but these are presented against a blank black background.”
    • “Not every game needs fancy cutscenes, but even an indie developer could have at least included a few picture slides in the background while the story unfolds.”
    • “Adding a few pictures to support the story, more objects to interact with, or actual events happening in the precinct could have made this at least a mediocre game.”
  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere is decent with some spooky elements and an interesting premise, but it ultimately feels cumbersome and detracts from gameplay rather than enhancing the overall mood.

    • “Decent atmosphere, spooks, and premise.”
    • “It only made finding items more difficult without actually enhancing the atmosphere.”
  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game offers limited replayability due to having only one ending and no Steam achievements, resulting in minimal incentive for players to revisit it.

    • “The game only has 1 ending and no Steam achievements, which means there is also not much replay value here.”
