game is really nice but needs a tutorial seriously i was so lost and clueless for my hole run prob bc I'm slow but still a tutorial would be nice, the game is glitch/bug free for my experience also this game is meant to be played in multiplayer a single-player experience is a bit scary and silent which gives a really cool psychological horror mood (for the first 5min) and then it gets repeated and honestly boring don't know what to do don't know what your looking for don't know what tool your supposed to use ADD A TUTORIAL PLEASE, you HAVE to play this game with your friends to have fun bc being lost with your friends is fun somehow.
