  • story8 mentions

    The game's story is widely criticized for being either nonexistent or poorly developed, with players noting a lack of meaningful plot and character progression. While some attempt to find humor in the absurdity of the narrative, such as a villainous child on a quest for rogaine, the overall consensus is that the story fails to engage or provide any depth, leaving players feeling disappointed.

    • “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
    • “Soon, he encounters some dying characters that say, 'Your balding child is a demon and is killing everyone, you terrible parent,' so I guess the underlying plot is that you’re trying to put your daughter in time-out.”
    • “Personally, I like the idea of this villainous child being on their quest for rogaine, but feel free to invent whatever plot you’d like to numb the pain.”
    • “There are only two soundtracks in addition to large, empty, and meaningless levels that are all poorly designed, enemies that don’t do damage (or have death animations), as well as having no discernible plot or character development.”
    • “The developer may as well just use x17’s store description and nuke any semblance of story so we don’t have our expectations set any higher than a children’s book.”
    • “This game has a plot that I can only describe as non-existent.”
  • music6 mentions

    The music in the game is limited to just two tracks: an eerie piece intended to create a horror atmosphere and a high-energy orchestral theme for the main menu. While the eerie track attempts to enhance the game's mood, it ultimately falls short, leaving players feeling that the overall sound design is lacking and repetitive.

    • “I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
    • “There’s this eerie-like song that tries to set the atmosphere of a horror shooter, but the only other track is this high-energy orchestral song that you hear in the main menu.”
    • “Sort of like the scary music which plays in grade-B horror movies as the nubile co-ed climbs the stairs to check on someone.”
    • “There are only two soundtracks in addition to large, empty, and meaningless levels that are all poorly designed, enemies that don’t do damage (or have death animations), as well as having no discernible plot or character development.”
    • “To start with the lesser of the evils, there are seemingly only two music tracks in this game.”
    • “There’s this eerie-like song that tries to set the atmosphere of a horror shooter, but the only other track is this high-energy orchestral song that you hear in the main menu.”
  • gameplay4 mentions

    The gameplay is criticized for its lack of a coherent story and minimal content, with only about five minutes of actual playtime and an empty second area, suggesting a significant departure from previous iterations of the game.

    • “If you would like to see some gameplay, here is a link.”
    • “Here's some gameplay from the release.”
    • “It's different now... it appears to only have 5 minutes of gameplay with the second area being empty space.”
    • “Next up is the lack of a story — I have no clue what the first iteration of this game was like, but based on what I’ve seen from other screenshots or gameplay videos, the game made an attempt to explain what was happening.”
  • atmosphere3 mentions

    The game's atmosphere is noted for its unique design, with an eerie soundtrack that attempts to enhance the horror experience, though it contrasts sharply with a high-energy orchestral piece in the main menu.

    • “The atmosphere is incredibly immersive, creating a sense of dread and anticipation that keeps you on edge.”
    • “I haven't seen a game that featured such unique design; if there's a fully functional horror game that can truly carry atmosphere, I'd be eager to play it.”
    • “There's an eerie song that attempts to set the atmosphere of a horror shooter, contrasting with the high-energy orchestral track that plays in the main menu.”
    • “I haven’t seen a game that featured that kind of design, and I figure if there’s a fully functional horror game that can actually carry atmosphere, I’d be interested in playing it.”
    • “There’s this eerie song that tries to set the atmosphere of a horror shooter, but the only other track is this high-energy orchestral piece that you hear in the main menu.”
