The WhatsNext verdict

For Groups of friends looking for a tense, darkly humorous cooperative horror experience built on deduction.: Balancing mundane night-shift chores with interrogating uncanny customers creates a fantastic social loop where communication and hasty deduction make or break the shift. Tradeoff: Playing solo diminishes the charm and chaotic debates significantly, and repeated customer patterns can reduce surprise over prolonged sessions.

What it does best

  • Three friends turn every customer into a team debate

  • A remarkably cohesive collision of shopkeeping, detective work, and horror

  • Fluorescent isolation turns an ordinary gas station deeply uncanny

What might put you off

  • The endless mode loses its surprise

  • Solo play is noticeably weaker

The setup

What you are walking into

An online co-op horror for 1–3 players. Be wary: some of your customers are only pretending to be human. Question them. Check their paperwork. Don’t let them trick you; make one mistake, and you’d better board up, set traps, and hide.
