### 4/5 — Oke🤙

*2025-07-02, version 8.6*

Muy bueno, era facil, bueno mejor asi, de lo contrario ni lo acabo.

Una cosa a mejorar, solo una: el susto que te pega, no asusta ni a un mosquito, tiene que ser mas intenso como los sustos de FNAF 4 (Personaje Nightmare)

P.D. Cuando acabas todas las noches, donde esta el maravilloso premio despues de aguantar todas las noches🤔.

### 3/5 — No clue 😭😭

### 4/5 — Good

*2024-02-14, version 8.6*

But atleast make the jump scare a little scarier it’s not that scary and please reduce the time it takes for the battery to die.

### 4/5 — Nice way to kill a few minutes

*2024-01-13, version 8.6*

This game is actually pretty ok. I didn’t find it scary, but I can tell the devs tried. My only complaints are the game is kinda easy and it’s not really that scary.

### 5/5 — ¡Espeluznante!

*2023-05-20, version 8.6*

El juego en general es bien hecho. Ja, me acuerdo cuando antes puse un reseña que no me gustabas el juego porque siempre me pegaba sustos, cuando esa es la temática del juego. Lo volví a jugar y el juego me encantó, es muy espeluznante y te da unos muy buenos gritos. ¡Excelente juego de terror! 👍✨

### 1/5 — Helen Keller experience

*2025-06-11, version 8.6*

As soon as flashlight dies I can’t see anything, pointless game the monster looks like a mëth addict and doesn’t even come out  and when it does he is just so ugly. Also why does he come out of the closet like ??!? One star not recommended

### 1/5 — 👎👎👎👎

*2024-03-29, version 8.6*

Baddddddddd

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-05-29, version 8.6*

Absolute trash. You’re assaulted by 1 - 3 ads before you can even start the game. And I guess the language selection is sort of a joke as it only plays audio dialogue in Spanish.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2026-06-20, version 8.6*

This game is fun although I saw that it said it had no ads and then I got one but its fine because it was super short!

### 5/5 — Update

*2025-06-11, version 8.6*

It was a very good game, like 3 years ago or a little less, I played it and I had the streak of the night 127 I think, for me I say that the game has potential and I would like the monster or in this case the penguin to appear in more places and the battery to last a little longer and there could be many more things about this horror game that would be good to implement.

### 5/5 — Question

*2025-04-25, version 8.6*

Was this inspired by Five Nights at Freddy’s

*2023-12-17, version 8.6*

Muy buen juego, las mecánicas son muy buenas, me gustaría que le agregaran mas noches o diferente enemigo pero de ahí en fuera es un muy buen juego y le veo potencial che

*2023-11-05, version 8.6*

Es un muy buen juego, tanto los gráficos, el ambiente, etc. Pero que los anuncios no den tan intrusivos, en lo demás esta muy bueno. 👍
