replayable
FitThe structure gives reasons to return rather than finish once.
controller-friendly
FitController, gamepad, or Steam Deck play comes up as a plus.
narrative-mystery
Play styleA useful part of the game is piecing together mystery and story threads.
Steam review snapshots
Being a paranormal investigator, you don't actually have much anything to investigate or solve, which is a shame.Even all the floors look rather similar, save for a few details, so exploration loses its appeal after a couple floors.[h1]Is it scary?[/h1] The atmosphere is creepy alright.On gamepad the main menu controls are unconventional: with Xbox controller, the menu is navigated with 'Y','A','X' and 'B'.Why it fits
Check it if you want adventure, casual filtered by dark, tense, story rich.
