It's not a bad game, I want to be precise about that. It has a decent duration, and the basic idea isn't bad; I partly enjoyed it. However, the main issue lies elsewhere.
Although the game enjoys playing with and poking fun at some well-known clichés in the indie horror world, especially here on itch.io, it still fully relies on them and becomes dull shortly after. When I found out I had to find two keys and a code to escape, honestly, it almost lost my interest. I want to be clear, though — I did finish it because I wanted to understand where it was heading. Also, the aspect of the loop isn't well executed: if the protagonist has already experienced parts of the game, why not grant her more power? It's an intriguing concept that could have been developed more effectively.
That being said, I have to admit that the first part of the game unsettled me a lot when I played it for the first time; the overall atmosphere is very engaging.
Good Game: 6/10
