❤ Blending Hacking, Stealth, and Horror

Players take on the role of hackers and thieves, breaking into office buildings to steal valuable data and loot. This unique premise sets it apart from the familiar "ghost hunter" formula of similar co-op horror games. The core gameplay loop requires balancing hacking objectives with constantly evading a relentless supernatural entity that patrols the halls.

❤ Compelling Hacking Minigames

The hacking minigames are a particular highlight, ranging from simple pattern matching to complex coding and math challenges. Players report these tasks strike a satisfying balance of difficulty, providing a rewarding sense of accomplishment when completed successfully. Importantly, the randomized nature of the minigames prevents the hacking process from feeling repetitive, even across multiple heists.

❤ Tense Cat-and-Mouse with the Entity

Evading the entity's pursuit is a constant source of tension and dread. Reviews praise the AI's ability to actively search for and pursue players, forcing them to remain vigilant and constantly on the move. While some feel the entity's detection mechanics could use refinement, the overall experience of trying to sneak and hide from this unstoppable threat is widely considered a standout element.

❤ Cooperative Gameplay Shines

The cooperative gameplay shines when playing with up to four players. Teamwork and communication become crucial as players coordinate their hacking tasks, share information on the entity's location, and provide backup for one another when spotted. The potential for players to split up and cover more ground, or work together to distract the entity, are seen as meaningful ways in which the co-op element enhances the experience.

❤ Progression and Customization

While the current progression system is limited to cosmetic character customization and unlockable perks, the sense of gradual improvement helps to keep players engaged and invested in their individual character's development. Although some reviewers wish for more robust progression systems, such as new equipment or character upgrades, the existing customization options are still appreciated.
