The verdict
A very short, free mascot-horror prologue with a clunky drone, dark visuals and a polarizing reputation; the v2.0 update and secret ending improved it. Skip if you want real scares, length or polish.
Great for
Achievement hunters and curious fans who want a free, 30-60 minute mascot-horror taste
Main risk
Extremely short, clunky and not scary, and may run very dark or poorly on your PC
