I usually don't write game reviews but I felt like I needed to for this one... DON'T BUY THE GAME!! IT IS ABSOLUTE TRASH!! 7$ for what?? Running around and trying to fix an elevator while a humanoid figure chases you? There are FREE games out there that are a thousand times better than this. I've never written a bad review in my life but this is just a ripoff... save your money guys!
Sorry i just cant recommend this game, its too simple to enjoy it, I usually dont mind Indie horror games, but this atleast to me, just feels like you are running around doing nothing untill you die. Maybe im just bad at it, or misunderstood it, but this is my experience. https://youtu.be/_dlanu3MnbQ
Recommend: Nope. Not even for .49 cents. I've played a lot of indie B flick horror games cause I enjoy the genre. I figured negative reviews or not this would still have something to enjoy. I was wrong. First I had to use third party software to lock the mouse to the game window to avoid my other 3 monitors but at least it did stretch to 2560x1080. Not that it helped visually. The game is dark and the flashlight doesn't seem to work as shown in screenshots. A few comparison snips for your own judgement. Definitely not the flashlight coverage shown in the store screenshots. In a room with some chairs and a small TV. The chairs in back light up from all angles, but the ones closest to me do not. Nor is there a ring of light as most dark games with flashlights. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1984497416 Doors stand out pretty nicely as does blood splatter :D: but you can't see much in the halls to know where you can or can't walk. So lot's of getting stu...

[/list] [h1] CONS [/h1] [list] [*] No story. [*] No collectibles or meaningul interactions with the environment. [*] Nothing happens in the game, apart from having to outrun the monster. [*] Dumb, cheating(goes through doors), non-scary enemy. [*] Can't see 60% of the map, because the flashlight is useless. [*] Assorted technical glitches. [/list] There's no point in playing this "game" unless you're a masochist or would like to play it ironically on your Youtube channel.
what an awful game.. i have been playing this game for 1 and half hour.. and doing nothing.. stupid game..
Absolute piece of shit. Did you expect something other than that? Scroll back on up and take a look at the "About" section xD Refund imminent. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY1Ywl-s27c
Wow, just wow. You know, I have played many horror games in my life and let me just tell you.... this has got to be the best one. Gameplay is smooth. Graphics are great. Very "interactive". The went-wrong experiment is so well made. Through out the entire game, I was scared for my "live". It was so cool to play as a janitor fixing an elevator. I have been studying to be a janitor since I was 5, and after this terrifying experience, I can honestly say I might have to reconsider my career choice. It has truly been an honor to play as Max Taylor. Although this game has gotten very negative reviews, I wish VOS Gaming a nice anyway! Greetings
This game is absolutely magical, imagine a game where your objective is to repair a broken lift but it's literally impossible to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1000000000000/10 best game ever made
