    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious due to the lack of inventory control, forcing them to make repetitive trips to manage key items while waiting for their sprint to recover. This design choice detracts from the overall experience, making it feel more frustrating than engaging, though some believe improvements could enhance the gameplay.

    • “Here you have no control over your inventory (no item box) so when you run out of inventory space you just have to walk to wherever you need to use a key item and then tediously return to get your new item (all while waiting for your sprint to recover).”
    • “I think with some polishing and patching the game could be pretty cool (reducing the jump scares, audio improvements, more inventory space, more sprinting (or better yet no stamina system), and more logical/not-obscure progression), but as is it is just rather unpleasant and tedious rather than scary sadly.”
