This game is literally just banking on getting sales from the lack of other unreal engine 5 titles available. It's fun for about 20 minutes if you even have a computer with good enough hardware to play this unoptimized slop. Game shows to have 1 active player on steamcharts right now lol... You'd feel ripped off even if the game was free. I'd normally be optimistic about a game in early access but the gameplay loop is pretty tired and unoriginal and the dev team behind this game will probably only ever add more and more content bloat without bothering to fix any game breaking bugs just like they've done with previous games in the past. Strongly advise to avoid.

For the price it's hard to beat! Especially if you can get into a bigger lobby. Reminiscent of old halo infection matches mixed with manhunt. Incredibly solid and the graphics are so good. Super worth it on sale right now, I feel it's worth it in general. Could blow up to be the next big thing.

Online multiplayer only game with literally 0 promotion. if u speak english and cant speak korean, dont bother buying this, its more like a "wait for people to join your game simulator" than a real game. nobody even knows this exists

It's a very good and fun idea. The gameplay is great with some minor issues, but overall, it provides an exciting and engaging experience. It’s especially fun when played with a group of friends. While there are a few bugs and optimization problems that need attention, the core mechanics are solid. The biggest issue is optimization, but smaller problems like hearing your own footsteps too loudly when simply looking around as a seeker or climbing not having its own keybinding also stand out. The mix of seeking and hiding keeps the tension high, and with potential improvements, it looks even more promising. With a bit more polish and added content, this could easily become a must-play game!

For $7? There's a ton of of content here, the maps are solid, and overall it plays well. It can use some touch ups here and there, but for this initial release, its fantastic and the matches work really well.

Pretty cool hide and seek game, but pretty bare-bones right now. It still lacks depth and variety. The core idea is solid, but it can get repetitive pretty quickly. You get some fun out of playing it, especially with your friends, but it definitely needs more contents and modes over the long term. There's still plenty of room for improvement, like PLENTY. Right now, it's decent for a quick game session, but it won't hold your attention for long. Looking forward to them adding more stuff though 👍

Just a lazy asset flip to try and profit off of the hide-and-seek style of games. No heart or love put into this game at all. Refunded.
