Cool concept, very similar to Iron Lung so if you liked that you'll enjoy Void Crawler. It's claustrophobic and has some intense atmosphere, but feel the sound design is more immersive in the latter. Could really benefit from more directional/spatial sounds both for navigation and tension reasons. Piloting the Mole seems complex at first, they throw a lengthy manual at the player straight out the gate which was kinda overwhelming, but you'll quickly get the hang of it. I found the mystery of the story/world interesting and I appreciate giving some backstory/motivation behind our character, however I wish the creatures were a little more creative and not just more Lovecraftian squid faced humanoids, I've seen far too much of this recently. Unfortunately there's not much content and is more of a demo, more needs to happen imo. More spooks and entities seen out on your travels through the void on the cameras and more hallucinations ect. It's kinda slow and not enough happens, I didn't mind having to refuel and maintain the Mule that was actually fun but I can see some players finding it a slog. Overall it's alright but it's way too short and barely more then a demo and lacks creativity and not much spooks. 6/10
