Analyzed Sep 5, 2026

### Strengths

- Successfully captures the atmosphere of the 1978 film and the horror of feeling like Michael Myers
- The 1v4 asymmetric multiplayer structure and core concept are interesting and provide familiar fun
- The story mode functions as a tutorial and introduction to the game

### Weaknesses

- Optimization is unstable, causing 25–70 FPS or a 40 FPS lock even on high-end PCs
- Many launch-period crashes, visual glitches, progression-blocking bugs, and game-breaking bugs have been reported
- Civilian AI is sluggish, frequently stops, or fails to navigate, making escort and rescue gameplay repetitive and frustrating
