A short and mostly sweet horror experience. The escape room concept is great and there's certainly a decent sense of fear to the proceedings, even if the plot was paper thin. The procedural generation of room layout and puzzle solutions would have been welcome; however the punishment for failing a room is always to start from the beginning of that room again, and as some of the loss-causing mechanisms aren't initially clear, reloading checkpoints becomes quite common, and repeatedly having to work out fresh maths-based solutions until you work out what's getting you killed didn't feel like the most fun way to bulk out a game.

Still, ultimately despite this, it's a short title. The more naturally the puzzles come to you, the more you'll enjoy yourself, though.
