Dec. 2024

yes but needs to be more available for users with weaker laptops or computers

Dec. 2024

Absolutely love this franchise and can't wait for chapter 5. I definitely recommend buying the complete set if you tried the first demo level (like me). This game is also great to stream because it's chaotic and keeps viewers engaged. Keep up the great work!

Dec. 2024

The game is reallly well made and not overpriced - good graphics but predictable storyline - would def going to keep an eye on the developer

Nov. 2024

This is a horror game with a FP pacman style gameplay got over looked when it was fully released but pretty good game

July 2024

This game is a fun. It's challenging in some (most) parts of the game. The graphics and audio are pretty good and the gameplay is pretty straight forward. My only complaint is the amount of bugs. There are a lot of bugs.
