What players say

Players recommend it with friends for a few scary evenings, but call it rough around the edges. They describe an alien that one-shots you, a resurrection mechanic that sets it apart from similar games, and praise the devs for patching bugs through early 2025. Some players find the movement or VR controls clunky.
