The verdict
A promising cryptid-hunting co-op horror concept with great atmosphere, but the early access build is buggy and shallow. Skip it for now unless you want to back development.
Great for
Cryptid fans and co-op groups willing to back an early access game and tolerate bugs
Main risk
Buggy multiplayer and passive cryptids make the hunt boring or unplayable right now
