Alot of fun.'! Just Doesn't have a population of players on it.... Needs more work on the VR side.. Clunky and harder to play in vr. Sit down mode is awesome and body blocking your friends in a room is fun sometimes until its you ha ha. Weeper Monster is OP>"!! needs a nerf. love how you can also play as a monster.'! Need a easier way or instructions how to read the code of the papers better. We have been throwing it on the floor and changing your fov all the way to read it is rough ha ah. But I really enjoy this game and my friends did too.'! Hope to see it grow.

The game is super fun, just make sure you have friends to play with. There's some odd balancing but if you're playing with your friends you can set your own sort of rules to fix it. Flatface is one of the best designs for an enemy I've seen, super fun to play against and as. There's quite a few bugs in VR, a lot of things just straight up don't work like putting codes into pinpad locked doors, as well as the inventory and belt didn't work for me or any of my friends, we couldn't go through some doorways either, so if you want to play VR, you kinda have to play with a PC friend and you just cannot play the school level in VR due to not being able to go through any of the doors. The actual problem now is the game is dead, stopped being updated ages ago and is very buggy in it's current state. Very sad, I really hope that the devs come back one day.

Fun game, like if Phasmo met DBD and SCP. Atmosphere and monster design is pretty creepy, much scarier than other similar games. A couple things to know: Collision with open doors is a little spotty, you might need to physically step through a few. Some levels have notes, do not drop them, they will float to the ceiling and be unreachable. Being new-ish as it is, not a big playerbase, so use single to acquaint yourself with the levels and "inhabitants" of them. Sadly, cannot play as killer in vr only survivors. Killer can only be played in desktop mode, so that's a big strike against it for me.

Great game however I can't recommend it for the following reasons: 1. The game is no longer in development. 2. The player base and even the Discord for this game is completely dead. This game had a lot of potential. RIP.

The game is incredibly fun! I wish it wasn't mixed reviews because it definitely is great. It's going to be amazing when it's finished but the only problem I have is sometimes the keys are incredibly hard to find and seem like it might just be missing. The one killer is amazing to play, I won't say why but it really is a lot fun to play. I played with 3 other friends and we had a lot of fun. I was playing in VR and it works but still needs work, I fell through the floor once so I think a collider for respawn would be useful. Keep up the great work, this is going to be such an awesome game!

Bought this game when it first came out. To this day, I've seen no servers on the list and haven't played it online, once. I have 18 minutes gameplay, because of me waiting around for a server. Dead game, probably fun with mates in your own server.

Decent way to go about a game. I wish there was more ghosts and more maps but that I feel will come in due time since it is early access. Otherwise, Great game, amazing concept. If you are planning on getting this game, Couple things to know. There are only two ghosts to choose from. Three maps to choose from. 1 map is very confusing but can learn it easy. Two others are easy to get around. Again, great concept. Can be confusing but easy to get the hang of. I would recommend this game. Great game to scary your friends and also have fun with. Just be patient with it.

This game has incredible potential underneath its bugs and connection issues. If you were looking for Phasmophobia to have PvP modes, then this is your ticket. The maps and soundtracks feel very good, as in scary good, and the options we have now are reminiscent of Dead by Daylight's introductory methods. In its current state, the game is almost unplayable on VR, especially with poor connection. However, the creator put out an update as large as the original game files within the first 24 hours of Early Access being open on Steam. So long as the developer treats this game as a labour of love, and continues to work on ironing out its issues, this game easily has a chance at winning steam awards in 2021 or 2022. For now, I will give this a positive review while I place my trust in the developers to keep working on the game, and bring it to a completely playable state. I will give this game another review down the line, perhaps a year from now, which is more complete. For now, this is definitely one to watch.

Edited review - I had this game set to not recommended, dev didn't seem dedicated to it IMO. However one of my(and others) biggest complaint did get addressed, only one of each key. The dev does seem to be working on the game still and it's a fun concept, its based on Damned the Asymmetrical horror game that pioneered this entire genre (Dead by Daylight came along a little later). I've already lost interest in the game my self, but if you wanna give a try I say go for it. You will know in an hour or two if you like it. Player base is currently very low so I recommend you only get this is you have friends to play with....Although they did add a single player mode I see.

The game is in early access - so yes expect bugs and issues. I have only played for a short time but I can tell this game has the potential to compete with other games similar to it (I think of dead by daylight while I play) It is supposed to be a 4v1 experience. As of typing this, there are 2 killers available and 4 present survivors. The goal is to find keys spread across the map (I assume placed through RNG) and escape. Even with some of the issues the game has, I personally have enjoyed it so far! I am excited for what's in store for the game in the future
