    Overall, the graphics of the game receive mixed reviews; while some players praise them as great and atmospheric, others criticize them as poor and unappealing.

  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is largely absent, providing minimal context for the monsters' existence, with only a vague mention of a scientist's illness. Players primarily engage in key hunting in darkness, and upon completion, are met with a lackluster ending that offers little narrative satisfaction. Overall, the storytelling is considered weak and underdeveloped.

    • “The story is non-existent; you get no explanation as to why the monsters exist, except for a note saying a scientist 'got sick.' 99% of the experience is key hunting in almost complete darkness, and when you do beat the game, all you're given is a dry 'congratulations' and a couple of courtesy claps before getting hustled back to the main menu.”
    • “There's very little story.”
