### 4/5 — Good but to short

*2022-11-06, version 1.0.17*

Congrats to whoever made this game but it was so good it just needs more

### 3/5 — Pretty cool i guess but kind pf misleading

*2022-04-14, version 1.0.17*

The trailer shows people using vr phone headsets bit theres no setting or anything to turn vr support on

### 4/5 — Great start. But, disappointed

*2021-08-04, version 1.0.17*

You get to play part of the game free than pay $1.99 to get the “Full Version”. Which I thought I was purchasing a whole game. Not 36-45 mins of entertainment. “The End”.

### 2/5 — Cool but where’s key

*2021-06-29, version 1.0.17*

The start is like gone…

### 4/5 — SCARY AS HECK

*2021-06-04, version 1.0.17*

Ok so the jumpscare at the begging scared the life out of me I threw my headset and my iPad across the room Jesus bro but the graphics are bad but besides the graphics the game is really scary so if your into hard jump scares this game is that game for you

### 4/5 — Great, but disappointed

*2021-04-11, version 1.0.17*

I was looking forward to playing and beating this game. The puzzles didn’t seem too hard, and finding all of the pieces was actually pretty easy. I was disappointed to find out, however, that you need to buy the full version for $1.99 in order to continue. Ridiculous.

### 3/5 — Game

*2021-02-18, version 1.0.17*

The controls are bad

### 2/5 — shame

*2020-10-17, version 1.0.15*

don’t waste ur money to buy the full version,u’ll be sorry.

### 3/5 — It was ehhh

*2020-07-22, version 1.0.15*

Good game but not long enough or enough happening for it to be worth paying for

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2020-04-11, version 1.0.15*

Game was ok. But finished it in 45 minutes. Not worth the extra 2 dollars. Ended very suddenly.

### 4/5 — Couple flaws but...

*2020-03-10, version 1.0.15*

I honestly loved it! I wish there was a sequel to this because I would go for it. I’m almost immune to fear and I’ve been looking for some serious fear factors. This helped me a lot as well as provide some entertainment.

Now the flaws... doing the puzzles that required to use tilt on my phone sometimes didn’t do what I wanted it to do. My suggestion is that it would be best to offer an alternate way of moving the switches like tapping on screen or sliding on the screen. 
Next flaw is adding more to the story instead of letting the player try to guess parts of it by adding more audible dialogue or reading letters or diaries that hint a little more about what’s going on. 

Overall, I love it! 4 stars and hoping the sequel comes out!

### 2/5 — NOT worth it.

*2020-03-03, version 1.0.15*

Seriously y’all. This is a rip off. The game itself was actually okay. First couple jump scares were pretty cool and I did jump (mentally/emotionally). Lol. But then you pay $2 and the game is over shortly after. There’s not a lot of thought to figuring out the clues, they pretty much just give it to you. I prefer somewhat challenging-type puzzles, not just walking up to something and it giving you the key you need. In other similar games, I find myself forgetting where it was that needed the key, and I love that bc it keeps you invested and challenges you. This game.... i’d find the key and remember exactly where to go, so id go there, (sloooooowly), and then I was there and the next simple step followed. And so on. So basically you’re just paying for the creepiness of the game and 1) it’s not THAT creepy after the first couple jumps and 2) again, it’s TOO short. Maybe if it was just sooo mind-numbingly scary every which way you turn, every TIME you turn, and constantly making you jump, MAYBE the shortness of it would be enough to overlook the basic-ness of the clues/gameplay. But it’s not. Only a few scary parts on top of a very challenge-less objective that is EXTREMELY and entirely too short. This should be free. I’m not comparing it to a $5-6 game which (for a couple dollars more) are FULL-LENGTH, long AF games. But plenty other games that I’ve paid $2-3 dollars for are FIFTY times more worth it so they have no excuse except to rob you. Oh, and I didn’t even UNDERSTAND the ending!!!! I walk down into the brick cellar-like room off the kitchen and then what happens???? I get dragged off?? I don’t know. It doesn’t really explain anything and then it says the game is over. Did I die? Did I get out? Lord knows! I watched allllllll the credits appear for the people who made this short-lived, semi-creepy money guzzler thinking “this is a joke.... this is part of the scariness.... you think it’s over and then they’re gonna jump out at you and keep it going.” Naw. I even had one last glimmer of hope when it said “THE END....(?)” like maybe there were gonna be more chapters included in my $2 to click on after going back to the home screen but again... nope. So... why the question mark??? It’s CLEARLY the end so WHY the question mark?!?! I’m getting more frustrated writing this. I demand you add more chapters and allow paying customers to continue. ...Lol.

### 3/5 — Not worth money

*2020-01-15, version 1.0.15*

Do not buy the full version it’s only a few more minutes of gameplay and honestly not worth the 2 bucks at all. Other than that great jump scares! If you made it longer for the people who already paid it would be a 5 star!

### 2/5 — It could be better

*2019-07-27, version 1.0.15*

I love the graphics and creppy sounds along with the thunder but I can’t seem to open things like doors or gates , but other than that it’s ok, jus don’t waste ur time on it

### 3/5 — Ok, but not great

*2019-02-20, version 1.0.13*

Maybe I was expecting too much, but this game fell short for me. I respect the devs for their effort, but I’m guessing the majority of the fun is in playing it in VR mode with headphones [cranked]. Since I was on a stand-alone iPad, I missed that element, and was left with controls that felt a bit wonky, primitive object interactions (attributed to VR?), and an atmosphere that lent itself to giggles more than screams. Still, if the game had been at least twice as long, I would have given it 4 stars, but it was so short and ended so abruptly (though the end was kinda “cute”) that the scariest moment in the game was when I thought, “Is that really the frickin end?” What there was I did sorta enjoy for about 45 minutes, but for 2 [measly] bucks I could have had much more fun with a decent point-and-click for about 6 hours or so (but maybe that’s just apples to oranges).

### 4/5 — GG

*2019-02-05, version 1.0.13*

Good game👍 All of the jump scares scared me.  💯

### 4/5 — My roommate came in and asked me why I kept screaming

*2018-10-15, version 1.0.13*

Awesome game, play it alone in the dark. But probably warn your roommates first if you scream like I do XD 
Had a little trouble with the turning things. Wish it was longer, end was a little disappointing tbh. Still, scared the crap outta me! Please make more!

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money 💰

*2018-09-14, version 1.0.13*

You only get about an hour or two of play in the full version. It ends with a cliffhanger. An hour or two of my life wasted.
I want a refund!

### 1/5 — I assume people were paid to say they liked this game

*2022-08-22, version 1.0.17*

The controls are crap - I can do exactly the same motion and it’s a toss up as to whether I walk, look around or do nothing. Controls to interact with things are even worse. I had to turn the brightness up so high my eyes hurt in just a few minutes and I finally got stuck on the stairs and couldn’t do anything. I give up. I’ve loved the company’s other games I’ve played but this was trash.

### 1/5 — Bad game

*2022-08-18, version 1.0.17*

Garbage horror game for mobile. Waste of time, money, and life.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-01-22, version 1.0.16*

Bought this game simply for the VR function and it’s not even an option on my phone, and it’s an iPhone XR. Idk what the deal is, but surely I’m not the only one who has this problem. When I say it’s not even an option on my phone, I mean the space where the option is supposed to be simply isn’t there. It’s just black empty space. That’s a wasted $2.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-12-18, version 1.0.16*

Great at first, but horrible ending. I was extremely disappointed. Whoever made this is clearly lazy!

### 1/5 — Help please

*2020-10-30, version 1.0.16*

I have ios and there is no vr option :(

### 1/5 — Why?

*2020-10-18, version 1.0.15*

This app is unplayable the camera just shakes and it dosent work.

### 1/5 — Worst game ever!

*2020-07-25, version 1.0.15*

At first I thought it was ok, but the graphics are very bad and the basis around the game is boring. I tried to use the key to access the house but it did not work. I do NOT recommend this game, it isn’t scary at all.

### 1/5 — Es todo?

*2020-05-20, version 1.0.15*

Luego de gastar $1.99 el juego acaba al colocar #512? 😡🤷🏽‍♂️y ya? es todo? no hay mas? que es estooo??? #molesto

### 1/5 — Rip off!

*2019-02-15, version 1.0.13*

You charged me $1.99 after playing for 10 minutes so that I can beat the game 10 minutes later?!   Skip this one!

### 1/5 — That’s it?

*2018-12-14, version 1.0.13*

This game isn’t worth the trouble.  Too short!  I can’t believe this game is rated so high.  I finished it in 45 minutes. I’d like a refund!

*2018-03-24, version 1.0.5*

I played this game in vr, and it was surprisingly great, the scares were good, the graphics were good, and the moving style didn't require an external controller, I would've gladly payed for the full game if I wasn't broke
