What players say
Players praise the VHS aesthetic and oppressive cave atmosphere, but many hit progression-breaking bugs that force restarts. The story is told through well-written notes, though some find the lore unclear. Players are split on tension: some enjoy the lack of jump scares, others find it unscary.
