Thanks for playing the game,
Well walking simulator horror games are just go from one room to another while figuring out what is needed to procced and where to go next, we did try and add a couple of variations in stuff needed to do to proceed
The gameplay is more about findings stuff and navigating while managing light.
The monster walks toward you when you don't look at it, but looking at it will loose sanity and make it very hard to navigate. and it has an AI director system so it actively searches.
