The WhatsNext verdict

For Groups of friends looking for a low-cost, lighthearted retro horror game filled with chaotic scrambles and shared panic.: Splitting up to perform mundane electrical repairs in spooky, dark houses turns every sudden ghost encounter into a hilarious disaster of shouting, mistakes, and frantic rescues. Tradeoff: It suffers from rough edges, glitches, and potential connection issues, and it loses most of its appeal without an existing group to play with.
