The story intrigued me more than the gameplay. From the context of this originally being a budget downloadable title, the gameplay loop was novel. It was more fun though, trying to piece together the story and interpret below the surface level narrative.

The flashlight monsters were fun at first, but they were incessantly vicious. Getting caught by one often lead to me getting jumped to death. The inanimate Shadow monsters were the most annoying to fight because of the physics behind them, and sprinting through a pretty samey forest to a battle arena got tiresome quick. If it wasn't for the incredible story, I wouldn't even give this 3 Stars.
