The game's atmosphere is criticized for being lacking and basic, primarily due to repetitive and uninspired text. Reviewers suggest that hiring a freelance writer could enhance the narrative depth and create a more immersive experience.
“The text in the game is quite basic and didn't give a sense of atmosphere.”
“As a suggestion, I would say the dev needs to spend $50 hiring a freelance writer from a freelancer platform to write tons of nicely written variations of room text to give a sense of atmosphere and reduce the sense of repetition.”
