Much has been made of this game's debt to Junji Ito; far less its debt to the mechanics and storytelling of Arkham Horror, and if you've ever sat down for more than one session of Arkham Horror, you know that isn't a compliment. The detachment of the repetitive location-based events from each main mystery and the crapshoot RNG are at odds with the aesthetic's attempt at creating an immersive experience. It is a tremendous credit to Panstasz's intricate MS Paint art and the spooky high-energy soundtrack that the game nonetheless remains fresh for as long as it does. For about a month during quarantine, these vibes were juuuuust right.
