This game is awesome why is this game free.Awesome 1v1 hide and seek and scare game.
I've done all the achievements that are possible without buying the dlc, which is stupid, and when I did the last, and hardest one, it didn't even give me the mask! The devs obviously aren't gonna see this because the games dead, but it's still annoying.
