The verdict
A tense, chaotic asymmetric horror game that is great with friends and very addictive, but weighed down by a toxic community, balance disputes and bans. Skip it if you solo queue or tilt easily.
Great for
Friend groups who enjoy chaotic chases and learning deep mechanics, and can shrug off toxicity
Main risk
Toxic community, balance and solo-queue frustration that turn matches into stress
What players love
Much better with friends
