Is it scary?
I really hate horror games, are there any jumpscares in the game? Probably not, but i want to make sure.

there are no jumpscares, but you might get gosebumps from time to time
you might want to look behind you every 30 seconds or so

It could make you feel... uneasy. There aren't jumpscares, though.

No. This is not a horror game. I found one ending disturbing, but not particularly scary.

Anyway, no jumpscares.

There are no jump scares and this isn´t a horror game. At worst it gets midly creepy, but that´s it.

EDIT: Q-Q-Q-Quadruple sniped!

I'm sure you'll get over it.
Just... just take as much time as you need...

Still, when you think about it, the "Red Door" ending is pretty disturbing.

Every time I turned a corner I jumped! It was so scary! So so scary! Run away! Buy the game! Don't buy the game! Bye, the game! Grandma's having a cookie sale!

that's one ending i don't understand
what does it imply?
if the only way to restart the game was to die, then it would make sense
but since that's not the case, i don't really get the idea behind it
and yes, it was quite disturbing, but in a "WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME DO THIS?" way

If you try enough times you eventually die and the game restarts

i know, that's not the point
the point is that i don't understand why we are given these two choices (kill ourselves or stand in that room forever)

The part I find disturbing is the fact that the narrator pretty much keeps begging you not to do it, until he finally gives up (if you keep going back in the spacy room)

I don't find that as disturbing as the Real Person ending (the one I tried to reference). Hearing the Narrator break down as Stanley stands unresponsive almost made me cry.

It is philosophically of some moment. It'll stick with you. No zombies.
