What players say

Players compare Sinner 97 to Puppet Combo's Stay Out of the House and Granny, with many saying it improves on that formula. The game is short, around two hours, with randomized item locations and a leaderboard for replay. Some find the killer easy to outsmart once learned. The lack of a proper save system that wipes progress on exit is a frequent complaint.
