  • atmosphere
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is widely praised for effectively conveying a sense of isolation and tension within a space environment, enhanced by simple yet clear visuals. Players appreciate the combination of an ominous ambiance and engaging puzzles, which contribute to a fun and immersive experience on a space station. Overall, the atmosphere is described as both captivating and original, making it a standout feature of the game.

    • “Other than that, it's a good atmosphere in the game; you really get the feeling of being alone in a spacecraft. It's a little ominous.”
    • “Very nice atmospheric game; gives a good sense of being on a space station.”
    • “Very original puzzles, great atmosphere.”
  • graphics
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally described as simple and basic, featuring low-poly models and a somewhat placeholder aesthetic. However, they effectively create a good atmosphere and complement the engaging puzzles, making the overall experience enjoyable despite the lack of cutting-edge visuals.

    • “Good atmosphere, simple yet clear visuals, most importantly varied and interesting puzzles, around a dozen of them in total.”
    • “Interesting puzzles, nice visuals, atmosphere, and more.”
    • “Graphics are simple but nice, and the feeling of being on a space station is actually there.”
    • “The 3D environment looks like placeholder graphics: it's all boxes and low-poly models.”
    • “The graphics are a little basic and the music/theme is just okay.”
  • stability
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is notably problematic, with frequent screen freezes on entry, particularly for Valve Index users, and various bugs causing items to get stuck. While some glitches add a humorous element, the overall experience is marred by these issues, especially in the final room where both bugs and lazy puzzle design are prevalent. However, the inclusion of a "reset items without losing progress" feature is a positive aspect amidst the instability.

    • “I can't even play it; the screen freezes on entry to the game while running on Valve Index.”
    • “It's quite short, especially considering the final room is buggy and the puzzles got very lazy at that point.”
    • “It is occasionally buggy with items getting stuck in other objects, but the 'reset items without losing progress' button works well.”
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is characterized by some clunky object handling and button pressing, which users find to be of good quality overall. However, the presence of puzzles with solutions in obscure locations detracts from the experience, as it does not effectively challenge players' reasoning skills and is viewed as a poor design choice for an escape room game.

    • “Handling objects and pressing buttons can be a little derpy, but this is good quality gameplay.”
    • “Two of the puzzles have solutions hidden in random and hard-to-find locations, which is not a test of reasoning skills and, in my opinion, is a bad escape room game mechanic.”
  • optimization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The optimization of the game is inconsistent, with reports of significant performance issues occurring after reaching the final room, although this may not be a widespread problem. Players have noted that while non-textured polygon surfaces can enhance frame rates in VR, the game's performance deteriorates as complexity increases, particularly in later levels.

    • “I personally prefer non-textured polygon surfaces in VR, as while it takes away from some immersion, it makes up for it with smooth frame rates. Unlike a game like Aeon, where the first level plays like a dream and then the performance gets worse level after level as the detailing gets more complex.”
    • “There is a serious issue with performance after the final room is reached, but I'm not sure if this problem is common; no one else has reported it.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music and theme of the game are generally considered average, with some users noting that they do not stand out significantly.

    • “The graphics are a little basic and the music/theme is just okay.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized as a cash grab, indicating that players feel the developers have abandoned meaningful updates or content in favor of profit-driven tactics.

    • “They clearly gave up on the game and now it is just a cash grab.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is primarily a puzzle room experience rather than a traditional adventure with a deep narrative, but it is well-crafted and enjoyable nonetheless.
