"The Exit 8" by Kotake Create is an atmospheric walking simulator that expertly blends psychological horror with puzzle-solving. Set in a Japanese metro station passageway, the game draws players into an unsettling environment where reality seems to distort. The simple objective of spotting anomalies in the station's layout becomes a deeply immersive and nerve-wracking experience, heightened by the game's realistic graphics and meticulous attention to detail. The looping mechanic and the presence of a passer-by acting as a timer add layers of tension, making even small decisions feel weighty and stressful.
Despite its strengths, "The Exit 8" is a short experience, with a playtime of around 20 minutes for those who navigate the anomalies correctly. This brevity, while contributing to the game's intense atmosphere, also limits its replayability. However, the game succeeds in creating a memorable and impactful experience through its focused design and ability to evoke a profound sense of discomfort, ensuring it lingers in the player's mind long after completion.
