- “It's one of those really messy and buggy indie games, but for the right price, you can complete it and be entertained with a simple vampire story for 2 hours.”

monetization
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized as unethical, with accusations of plagiarism and asset flipping, where developers use uncredited stock assets to create low-effort products primarily aimed at generating quick profits. This approach has led to perceptions of the game as a cash grab, undermining the integrity of the original creators.
- “The developers here didn't credit any of the artists and real, actual game developers who created the assets, so this is plagiarism as well as a cash grab.”
- “In this case, the asset flipper took a bunch of stock Unity assets and dumped them on the Ultimate Horror FPS Kit game template to make yet another low-effort, minimum viable product cash grab.”
- “Single-player games have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab through this account or closely linked/alternate accounts.”
