Shout-out to my buddy Shane for checking this out with me. A Technician's Nightmare has a few good ideas in it but the mechanics never come together well enough for it to be worth your time. The game is comprised of two levels- the first of which is much more fleshed out and realized, but also more frustrating. As you work to collect the scampering rats in the house and repair AC units, you're hunted by a ghost lady. The QTEs are dull and ask too much of you and the strict two-item inventory means you'll constantly be dropping stuff to pick something else you need up. The level feels like doing chores. I imagine a 4 player team could make short work of the first level but it doesn't scale for player number. It's too hard to escape the ghost's grasp and the game grew frustrating even on the easiest difficulty. The second chapter is set in a more open outdoor environment and I didn't have any trouble with it other than getting pretty lost out in the cornfields and running across plenty of invisible walls.
