What players say

Idk what to say about this game honestly ?? The story is the most captivating thing imo, the stealth sucks ( you can quite literally finish the entire game without using a single hiding place because the intruders paths are so easy to memorize), the character models are...something. I really enjoyed exploring the lab and the part where we got to play as Dennis. The most fun I've had while playing this game was...

It's literally a hide-and-seek game. But gameplay is boring and stealth is miserable. Go from A to B, Go to A again, now - C. Character asks us to use his computer but doesn't give us a user password. Enemies faster than the protagonist and if they were close and noticed you, you'll never escape. Scripts everywhere - intruders patrol by written algorithm, and you can learn their patterns. VR mode doesn't work...

A pretty simple and to the point hide and seek style game, as the name implies. Not much to say gameplay wise as you will pretty much just be doing lots of back and fourth fetch quest, and ...well hiding. The MC moves excruciatingly slow and you will not out pace the intruders but that being said the intruders are on set predictable paths that once you learn them make it very easy to get around them. The story is ok...
