Neat little game with a cool style and interesting story, multiple endings and bonus tapes and collectable items makes it worth playing.

Welcome to the game is a great horror game which invlolves you seeking out codes on the dark web with the many challenges you have to overcome present. There are hackers that will repeatedly try to hack you which you have to counter with simple but difficult methods such as typing out code on a time limit or creating a route to the end of a maze, all to prevent you from losing precious days and notes that you take on your journey to find a red room. This game is difficult and it requires perseverance you must be able to keep trying to search for websites and keys and gateways to finding more websites and codes hidden inside. Kidnappers may try to find you at your house which creates an atnmosphere of fear and pressure to continue while carefully being aware of what is happening around you always adding to the challenge of the game.

The game offers a challenge and a well made structure of determination and puzzle solving with a main goal of finally reaching a much sought objective while putting you under pressure and fear. It utilizes the potential of the dark web which has been portrayed very effectively in the game, you will find yourself on a journey through the dark web and all the different types of websites, communities, people etc that it offers in all it's sick, twisted, chilling, confusing and interesting features with a large variety of websites that portray this atmosphere very well. The dark web is a great subject for games which because it has such a real feeling to it and it makes you feel like a modern day adventurer, searching through depths that are dangerous and riddled with mystery, it's a place in which humans can express their darkest interests and activities and when you venture through it gives you an insight into humanity's dark side, you're an observer of all manor of things that people can express with anonymity and immunity from the law. The fact that you as the main character are seeking a 'Red Room' for the desire of witnessing someone being tortured and killed adds an element of yourself being part of this dark part of the internet, venturing through the depths in search of small hidden details.

This game is great, it's simple but offers a great experience with it's depth and atmosphere, it makes you feel like a puzzle solver and explorer while under the pressures of the hackers and kidnappers, it gives two realities, the dark and uncertain web filled with all manor of horrors and desires and the real world that is always there and always presents the threat and danger of people that find you as a result of your activity on the web. It offers structure and mystery through extensive trial and error and searching efforts. You feel as if you must continue and finally reahc the objective and after all your efforts, when you finally reach the end you realise that the journey was indeed more than the destination. You question why the character goes along with the challenge of finding a "Red Room" but you continue, you create the journey he takes through the danger and fear of the world of the uncertain. This game has a deep meaning to it. If you search hard enough you plunge deep into a world you cannot return from, like the journey of life, as you go through you change and your experiences mould you into a person you were not before, once you go through with it you cannot simpy go back. Nothing can be undone.
