Work out the creature’s rules and consider your next move without escaping the fear of pursuit. Reviews praise this overlap of learning and terror.
What makes it fun
Learn while being hunted
Each game mode asks you to read a different monster and test your tools against it. Even after a failed run teaches you something, putting that lesson to use around the next corner is tense.
Keep collecting or run?
While you collect blue orbs scattered through the maze, you never know when the monster will appear. You have to decide whether to keep searching or leave orbs behind and run.
