“A dull walking simulator that sparks zero interest—you just wander endlessly through a maze and that’s it, zero horror. At least thanks for the +1 to my profile and the trading cards.”

“Graphics and mechanics feel outdated and controls are suddenly clunky. levels are boring and the game feels more like a chore than fun. regret spending time on it rather than playing something more exciting.”
