The verdict
A co-op tactical horror shooter in the SCP universe with excellent gunplay and atmosphere, but still an alpha with thin content, bugs and slow updates. Skip it if you play solo or want a finished game.
Great for
Squads of friends who love SCP lore and tactical shooters and tolerate early-access jank
Main risk
Paying full price for a thin, buggy alpha with slow updates that is brutal and unclear when played solo
What players love
Great fun in co-op with friends
Mentioned in ~1 in 4 positive reviews
“If you don't mind a little jank and want to experience something unique that is clearly a work of passion, I highly recommend it.”

Tense, scary SCP atmosphere

Poor optimization, crashes and stutter
Mentioned in ~1 in 5 negative reviews
“Optimization is bad, like really bad. You get lag on high-end PCs when enemies are running at you, so you end up dying because of it.”

Confusing level design and unclear objectives
Mentioned in ~1 in 5 negative reviews
“Every single puzzle in this game is either mind-numbingly easy or so convoluted you'll need to look up a guide because there is no feedback from the game on if you're doing the right or wrong thing.”

Many bugs and soft locks
Mentioned in ~1 in 5 negative reviews
“Enemies attacking through walls. Being stuck into walls. Clunky animations. Clunky movement. A literal "click to fire not working" bug. Crashes.”
