Why players love itThings to know
46% of themes are praise27% are divided27% are complaints
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
79 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you have ever played any of the Slender games this is somewhat like that just with coop and playing with three other friends and getiting scared together is really fun.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
51 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
In multiplayer sessions, the audio tension multiplies—hearing another player’s panicked gasp or the sudden silence when their voice cuts out mid-sentence is enough to send adrenaline surging.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The flashlight mechanics are a standout feature, with the beam flickering, weakening, or casting uneasy reflections that make every movement feel precarious.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The roster of playable investigators adds variety, each with subtle differences in stamina or flashlight endurance, while the inclusion of multiple maps and difficulty levels allows the game to scale in intensity.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
5 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
About the only positive that I can come up with for this title is that the sound design is fantastic and really creates a great atmosphere, an atmosphere that the rest of the game fails to pay off in any meaningful way.
