I picked this up on steam ( right now it's 10% off folks, though it's cheap to begin with ) ..
I was extremely impressed by the graphics, the atmosphere.. everything was great, I surprisingly didn't jump at any of the jump scares but they were still great.. I'm just pretty seasoned with horror at this point :) ..
The only frustration I had is how absolutely dark it was walking to work each night, the first night was fine and you could see around but after night one it was extremely dark and I kept getting lost, so much of the game play was spent trying to find the path to the store again.
I did get stuck at one part in the game with the tvs .. but I figured out pretty quick what was going on there..
I thoroughly enjoyed the game, it was one of the best I've seen on here so far for mood and overall atmosphere.. especially great sounds, the dark brooding ambiance was excellent..
I also greatly appreciate that you can disable the camera look / VHS effect .. that always kind of annoys me after a while, so thank you for making that optional.
I also bought Stigmatized Property but haven't yet played it.
That's good to know.. I spent a good 45 minutes to an hour playing it, I wouldn't want to play through again for what is essentially the same ending with just some slightly added content..
Still though, a very excellent game indeed!
EDIT:
I think there may be actually three endings..
1. You watch it 2. You throw it away in the trash ( probably ends the same as 1 ) 3. You send it to someone else (return to sender, which I chose )
I just saw some video of what happens if you watch it.. that skips what I saw when I sent it off, I essentially got a bunch of backstory on what happened there.
I imagine throwing it away probably also does the same as what watching it does.. neither one probably gives you the backstory.
So TECHNICALLY two endings since two of them end the same.. but there's three possible choices.
You aren't wrong! There are 3 technically, I tried all of them when I played through it in my video, but I was sort of disappointed getting the same ending after going through the game a second time. It didn't stop a third attempt to get the "send it to someone else" end though haha
Very slow buildup, but the nightmare hits hard. My only gripe was that I had to play the whole game again to get the second ending. That coupled with how slow everything moves requires a lot of patience to get through twice over, but the good ending is worth it in my opinion. Here's my playthrough:
I love the new style of not running and screaming. Walking I can handle. It would be great if you could fix the issue that video/brightness/etc settings aren't saved (previous games had same issue).

Loved this game! Got both endings, surprised that throwing it out ended in the same ending as watching it though.

SECRET ENDING
Very slow buildup, but the nightmare hits hard. My only gripe was that I had to play the whole game again to get the second ending. That coupled with how slow everything moves requires a lot of patience to get through twice over, but the good ending is worth it in my opinion. Here's my playthrough:
did you go for the third ending?
I had no idea it was an option! I might retry this to get the third!
The sleep paralysis ending was a bit disappointing but the game was overall great, nice take on the night shift horror subgenre.
Had fun, slow start - but I know it'll get a little more tense later on ;o
Brilliant bit of slow burn horror, really creeped me out!
Really love these games by this dev! Very slow burn to just complete terror.
