It's a fun idea, but all I'll say I'm glad I got it when it was 100% free on April 1, 2024, cuz this is NOT worth $8. I like to call this game "Lethal Company at home".
The idea of filming scary stuff, and getting views and using that as a benchmark to constantly reach new view counts until you eventually not make enough sounds fun in theory.
However... At least on Day/Week 1, the game is simply too jank, barebones, repetitive, and not deep and varied than to play more than an hour or 2.
The jumpscares of scary monsters and re-watching people die on "Spooktube" is fun the first few times, but once you get past the shock value/new and exciting gameplay it gets dull extremely quickly.
What doesn't help is money you get is 100% tied to filming things, and the stuff you can buy... isn't mostly worth.
As someone who has played this game using in-game voice chat, as of Day 1, there were some annoying Voice Chat bugs/Features.
Mainly, right when you get back to the home base, you can potentially suddenly NOT talk to/hear your teammates until you go back into a dungeon.
This is a weird bug that I'm surprised made it to the final game.
If this were a 100% free game or extremely cheap, I'd be more forgiving, but overall this game is NOT worth $8.
