User Reviews

Players praise the game for its fun, tense gameplay and eerie vibe, along with solid visuals and varied level themes. However, common complaints include high difficulty, key visibility issues, a need for more content/levels, and several bugs (black screens, resets to LVL 00). Some players also wish for ads to be removed and for future features like multiplayer. Overall, the title is compelling but hampered by progression frustration and technical hiccups.

Pros

Fun and engaging gameplay
Scary atmosphere with jump scares
Good graphics and puzzle design
Varied level themes (poolrooms, hotel, city) provide diverse experiences

Cons

Very hard progression / difficult puzzles
Keys are invisible or hard to find
Too short; requests for more content and levels
Bugs causing black screens and level resets (e.g., skip level leads to black screen, restart to LVL 00)
Ads presence / requests to remove ads

Exactly what I said up there this game is 9+ but when I played it, I was like what this shouldn’t exist for 9+ this was way too scary for a 9+ category. I know since I’m an adult it wasn’t very scary at all but if a nine year-old play, this he would be sobbing and chills would’ve been all over him. This definitely should be changed.
