What players say

Players describe a short, PT-style horror game with good graphics and atmosphere that takes about an hour to complete. Many find the ending abrupt and unsatisfying, while the morgue clock puzzle frustrates some. Players are split, with some praising the experience for the price and others calling it simplistic with a confusing story. A few note it has heavy trigger content without warnings.
