How it feels

A tense co-op crawl through a deadly underground hospital where stealth is paramount and solo play turns into an unforgiving loop of trial-and-error.

What players say

Players call it a horror game for waifu collectors, with jiggle physics on enemies and enemies that mimic voice chat. It is a simple collect-and-extract game, best with high-energy friends. However, level 5 introduces a sudden difficulty spike with cheap instant-kill enemies, splitting players on whether the game is fair or becomes unfair past level 4.
