How it feels
A lonely, atmospheric psychological horror walking through endless, dimly lit hallways, captured through a grainy VHS filter.

What players say
Players praise the game for capturing the eerie, unsettling atmosphere of Kane Parsons' Backrooms series, with realistic visuals and sound design. Many note it is more about exploration and dread than being chased, though some find it a walking simulator with no puzzles or threats. Save issues and crashes were common at launch, but an autosave patch addressed the worst of it.
