I found this on HumbeBundle for $1.99 and decided to give it a shot. The first time I booted it up, I had no idea what was going on, but my flashlight was flickering, as in strobing on and off on every other frame. It was so distracting that I got nowhere and gobbled up quickly.

I restarted, and there was a crash, so I realized that my overclock (which actually is for cryptohashing) was probably too high, so I set it down to my game playing profile and the game was smooth ever since.

Upon getting the feel for this, I was actually getting a bit of a shock and scare, but it quickly normalized for me as I learned the game. It's not complex, you gather clues and then perform a more complicated task to send the baddie to another plane of existence. But the game itself is actually pretty fun.

While this is set up to be a 4 vs 1 game, you can also play solo, which is a great way to learn the game anyway. There multiplayer option I wasn't able to try out as the game reported only 14 players online when I was playing in the early AM hours. The few players that were in a game lobby looked to be Asians who were in the middle of their evening, but they never set their characters and seemed AFK. Playing some more solo, I leveled up some and checked again, but there wasn't anyone available for multiplayer.

I also bought this game along side Dead By Daylight, which is a similar type of game. I've yet to try DbD, but I assume it will be a better game, possibly simply because of the playerbase.

Ultimately, if you want to play this solo, which I'm finding fun, then pick this up. It's a smaller game, taking about 2.25 GB on your hard drive, so it won't be a storage hog to have kicking around. I'm not sure what price would be fitting, but I'm happy I only paid $1.99.
