Gameplay is primarily focused on solving puzzles by maneuvering shields to project beams of light, which can become repetitive. While there is a horror element with a reaper character that can kill the player instantly, the overall experience is described as fluid and enjoyable, particularly for puzzle enthusiasts.
- “I like this game, the puzzles are good, and it has a very fluid gameplay.”
- “For those looking for a scary experience, the only 'horror' element to the game is some reaper guy that can one-hit kill you when he shows up, but the majority of your gameplay will be spent slightly moving shields back and forth to project beams of light to open up the door to the next level.”
