What players say

Players are split on Eseapner. Some praise its hardcore gameplay and atmospheric horror reminiscent of classic Silent Hill or Resident Evil. Others strongly criticize missing features like resolution settings, a confusing story, the inability to use a flashlight while aiming, frustrating bugs (invisible walls, fall deaths), and performance issues even on strong PCs.
