The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it lacking in substance and engagement, primarily due to repetitive mechanics like walking along a narrow path and breaking barrels. However, others appreciate the unique and interesting mechanics of the card game, highlighting its promising potential and strong presentation. Overall, while there are elements of creativity, the gameplay experience currently feels underdeveloped for some users.
- “The expectation of what EA games should be has changed over the years, and nowadays EA games are mostly games with a strongly defined core experience that just need polish and improve the otherwise still solid base gameplay loop.”
- “The presentation and core game mechanic are very engaging, and the art and sound design are on point.”
- “A card game with an interesting proposal; I played it for an hour and I really enjoyed it. The game is promising, and the theme combined with the mechanics works perfectly.”
- “I can see it being awesomely engaging in the future, but right now it doesn't offer anything except a preview of game mechanics.”
- “Because most of the gameplay revolved around walking on a barely visible, very zoomed-in path and breaking barrels in hopes that it gives something useful.”
- “I am normally not so harsh towards EA games, but apart from the art direction, there was a complete lack of substance from the gameplay perspective.”

The story is perceived as lacking depth, resembling a walking simulator with minimal combat rather than a true horror narrative focused on survival. However, the opening cutscene is well-received, and players express optimism about future content in the early access phase.
- “I really liked the opening cutscene and decided to venture on this journey. As a newbie in this style of game, I'm getting by pretty well, and since it's in early access, I think I'll have enough missions to be enchanted with the game.”
- “It felt more like a walking simulator with occasional stat exchanges and periodic enemies than a true horror story and fight for survival that you would expect it to be.”
