stability2 negative mentions
  • Strong atmospheric horror vibes with effective jump scares that surprised many players.
  • Nostalgic VHS-style graphics and effects that create a unique retro aesthetic.
  • Short, free gameplay with multiple achievements and chapter select features appreciated by players.
  • Story is confusing and poorly explained, leading to difficulty in understanding game events.
  • Gameplay suffers from technical issues such as glitches, frame rate drops, bugs, and frustrating segments like long walking sequences and maze navigation.
  • Heavy reliance on loud and predictable jump scares with basic, sometimes tedious gameplay mechanics.

  • story

    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story receives mixed feedback, with some players finding it confusing, lacking clear connections, and underdeveloped, while others appreciate its basic horror narrative and are excited for future episodes. Overall, the story is seen as unclear or poorly explained by many, but it still contributes to an engaging horror experience.

    • “This is a good horror dark game and it has a good story. I'm so excited for upcoming episodes.”
    • “The game does have bugs regarding dialogue, and the story does have some parts where you're wondering why you do what it's asking, but overall, the game was amazing; I loved it.”
    • “The plot is basic but easy to understand.”
    • “Also the story, while not in a bad way per se, makes zero sense and I have no idea how anything relates to anything else.”
    • “The gameplay really hammers home the term 'walking simulator'; the story is just stuff being thrown at the wall with nothing sticking. It's janky, the free models look horrible, and the whole thing has a VHS aesthetic and filter simply for having it (i.e. you aren't watching a VHS or holding a camera).”
    • “Overall this game is a great short horror and it being free makes it just better, only complaint is the story is quite confusing and I wished it was clearer.”

  • atmosphere

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere is generally praised for its gritty, tense, and unsettling qualities, enhanced by effective audiovisual elements like VHS effects and audio design. While the mood sets a strong tone, some feel the dark atmosphere is excessive or not fully supported by substantive gameplay.

    • “This episodic horror game nails the atmosphere with its gritty VHS effects and tense camera work, which really set the mood.”

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “I can appreciate the old school VHS graphics!”
    • “The video clip in the living room was entertaining, the graphics are old-school and good, the jumpscares got me good, and most importantly, there is a meowing cat.”
    • “Visuals, effects, details were amazing!”
    • “The graphics are a little rough, and I couldn't read the subtitles in a couple of scenes, so I couldn't understand some conversations between myself and other characters.”
    • “The gameplay really hammers home the term 'walking simulator'; the story is just nonsense being thrown at the wall with nothing sticking. It's janky, the free models look horrible, and the whole thing has a VHS aesthetic and filter simply for effect (i.e., you aren't watching a VHS or holding a camera).”
    • “I think there's a small bug: if your PC or game crashes, try changing the resolution/graphics settings and the problem is solved.”

  • gameplay

    • “Terrible gameplay where you have to jump across some nonsense which makes zero sense.”
    • “The gameplay really hammers home the term 'walking simulator'; the story is just rubbish being thrown at the wall and nothing sticking. It's janky, the free models are horrible looking, and the whole thing has a VHS aesthetic and filter simply for having it (i.e., you aren't watching a VHS or holding a camera).”

  • grinding
