Very nice escape survival horror. Not excellent, but very nice indeed. The doctor is pretty scary with his "cyborg" appearance (I suspect he is a completely original model, I have never seen him before), and above all he perfectly fits the setting of the game, he is not simply a random monster. The setting itself is rather classic, a sort of bloody haunted clinic, but it does its job. The lore is very simple, but sufficient to give the game its own character, and the gameplay is pretty fun and entertaining, since it is more focused on exploration, rather than on puzzle solving. Also, the scares are not loud at all, much appreciated! I didn't like the wolves though, I think they don't fit the mood of the clinic, I would have preferred something similar to the pretty cool hell spiders, like hell hounds or something like that. Also, some mechanics are not properly explained to the player (I strongly suggest you take a look at the controls menu before you start your first run), and there are some minor bugs here and there, but the devs are very active, so I'm confident we will see some very interesting improvements in the near future. There is also a nightmare mode, but I didn't like it very much, I think the doctor is a bit too OP. But the normal mode is much more accessible, it can be very intriguing if you like short horror stories focused on exploration and creepiness, rather than on jumpscares and constant chases (yes, the doctor chases you, but you have many ways to survive). Overall, this is a good time-killer if you want to pass an evening deep in a horror mood, and also offers some replay value, thanks to the random spawn of key items. It doesn't go beyond that, but I think it fully achieves the purpose of the devs. Nice work! Cheers guys!
