The verdict
A funny, hectic co-op Backrooms extraction game in the Lethal Company vein, with fresh enemies and cosmetics. Early access is short, with only 3 levels, so skip it if you play solo or want depth.
Great for
Friend groups who like chaotic co-op horror-comedy like Lethal Company or REPO
Main risk
Very little content (about 2 hours, 3 levels) and repetitive or dull when played solo
