About This Game

Test your observation skills by cycling through cameras to spot anomalies. Report them to correct the reality. While most anomalies are harmless, some may need immediate attention. Ensure that not too many anomalies are active simultaneously during your shift.

Play on one of three levels, experiencing anomalies like objects appearing or moving, light changes, and invasions by humans or paranormal entities. Report the anomaly by selecting the room and type of anomaly from a menu. Upon a correct report, the anomaly will be fixed. Otherwise, you'll need to pay more attention. The appearance of anomalies is randomized, so each playthrough will be different.

Are you up to the task? Let's find out!

Key features:

  • 3 distinct levels
  • Several cameras per level
  • 15+ anomalies per camera
  • Modern graphics and lighting, in full color

This is only the second spot the difference game that I've played, but it was super engaging. I kept wanting to return to each level again to discover all the anomalies. It has a decent range from challenging to shocking anomalies, but the best part for me was getting to know the level so well that I could snipe even the most challenging anomalies. This is a great game to play with friends or on twitch!

Solid anomaly spottin' game here. It's similar to a few others that I've played but this has it's own spin when it comes to the presentation. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/0ywBkZfX0Yw

A fun, easily accessible spot the difference style game. The horror-like elements are good at making certain areas feel unsettling, especially the house >.< There are 4 difficulty levels have a good range and allow you to experience as much tension as you'd desire, combined with the different maps and large amount of anomalies makes it an easy pick-up and play whenever you get the itch while not getting too boring or repetitive. All together this is well worth it's €5 price and especially fun to play with others, or on stream!

Fun game to get into the genre. Nice to pick up and play when you get the itch. Developer listened to everyone's feedback and made some good QoL updates since launch.

Genuinely one my favourite anomaly games, It's VERY well done has a LOT of different anomalies and 4 difficulty levels that add more rooms/cameras to levels. Can't wait to see what else the Dev has coming, Will be recommending this to all my friends o7

A Beautiful horror game classic with a lot of potential for being even better considering it's early access status. The Graphics are great, the anomalies available currently are all unique, creepy and challenging at the same time. The difficulty system really does add a challenging factor to the game so if you felt like the easy/normal modes weren't challenging enough for you, feel free to play it on "INSANE" mode and get ready to want to gaslight yourself time and time again. All in all, a great game with great potential. 10/10

This game is super addicting! Wasn't expecting it to be this fun as I usually play more mechanically based games. Can't wait to see what future updates the developer makes! (Also really fun to play in a group setting or as a streamer with chat).

Game is pretty good and has high quality feel to it. Developer is patching the game often, which is cool to see since it's an early access product. Some feedback and thoughts: 1. Object missing / moved / extra is very easy to miss (might be skill issue) which causes too many anomalies warning and timer ticking down, which is pretty easy to "cheat" by just reporting events by guessing (object moved, extra etc for every room). 2. If you don't "cheat" by guessing anomalies while you try to find them, you get punished by taking too long since the game keeps spawning new anomalies while the timer is ticking down. 3. Which leads to my point: maybe don't spawn anomalies while timer is ticking down and punish for wrong guesses (on harder difficulties?). Bugs I found: 1. Elevator door anomaly spawns twice. I report first one, get anomaly fixed, door keeps moving and I report again, anomaly fixed and the door stops moving. Not sure if bug or just got it twice in a row without any time between....
