I remember playing this when it first came out and my entire friend group was obsessed with it; scared the shit outta me too much to ever complete it on my own time until later on. The concept at the time was cool and it clearly inspired so many horror games that came after it. The game itself is very simple in visual design and mechanics, but the ambience and (at the time) ambiguous lore kept the game fresh. A little too much RNG at times for my tastes, but I’ll always have fond memories of being enthralled at release.
