Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“I find the game to be rather boring and repetitive, and the scares go away pretty quick for me. If you enjoy these styles of games, I understand, but personally the loop isn't strong enough for me.”
“If you showed me the player character update and told me it was from the 50th best selling game of all time, I'd call you a liar. The animations look terrible and janky, but not in the good jank way that phasmo used to be known for. On top…”
