What players say

Players praise the Soviet setting and creepy atmosphere but note the game is very short, often around 30 minutes to an hour. Reviews are split on the story, with some finding it predictable and others enjoying the prologue and cinematic ending. Complaints include optimization stutters, a loud soundtrack that can't be adjusted, and basic stealth mechanics.
