The Real Review

People are enjoying this co-op horror game, praising its unsettling Unreal Engine 5 visuals and the fun of playing with friends. The main gripe isn't the game itself but its developer, Triiodide Studios, which has drawn significant criticism for its practices and communication. While the procedural levels and monsters are a bit divisive, the core experience works well, even if performance and difficulty can be rough. It's a solid pick for a spooky group session, just go in knowing the studio's reputation is a sore spot.
