What players say
It's a chill, very short horror game where you just do your job, experience weird things, and get paid. I personally love this kind of concept, that means it got my favoritism. Still, there is always room for improvement. While there are many defects and anomalies you need to inspect on the dolls, they do not balance it well; for my play, as an example, only 1-2 times of confronting a sharp-teeth doll, 6-finger...
PROS + Strong atmosphere with horror that doesn't rely heavily on jumpscares. + Surprisingly deep hidden lore and storytelling. + Satisfying progression through new rooms, mechanics, and secrets. + Interesting combination of job simulation and anomaly horror. CONS - Short overall experience. - Replayability doesn't change the experience as much as expected. - Some typos and spelling errors hurt the presentation. ...
Boring and predictable, even the different defect's don't overlap. Worst of all, the AI voice.
