Does the game have malware/viruses?
okay so i have heard some stuff on YouTube and people that reviewed the game, they said that when they played the game, the game decides to create files and basically it's malware they said, i am wondering if i should download the game or not since i have a decent gaming computer, and i don't want to download something malicious onto my computer since that wouldn't be good.

then there are other things people say, on they Steam discussions there are very similar threads that are related to mine, they did say that it only creates files and it's just to "haunt" your PC, which that kinda does scare me a little if it does haunt your PC, i think it's intended to do that sort of stuff so i am asking this question, so if it "haunts" your PC than does that mean it's hurting it?, could this mean that this game is like a Creepypasta malware or something?

look i have seen multiple YouTubers who've played the game themselves, and i really wanted to buy the game myself, but the thing is that i downloaded the free version from like Gamejolt, and started playing the game, i think it did install something harmful to my computer back in the day, like 2014-2015, so i am still very worried if i download something malicious it's going to harm my PC.

i wonder if it's true or not, i mean yeah it does sound like a cool Creepypasta game, but who would really want something to "haunt" your computer by creating files randomly?, the game itself does sound like something like a PUP or malware, and i don't want anything hurt my gaming computer since it's really all i have, but i am still looking forward to playing it.

if it does "haunt" my PC how do you delete all the files?, does it keep on placing it back on your computer and deny permission to delete them?, this game sounds like malware to me since it acts very maliciously, and YouTube videos discuss the same game having malware attached when you start playing it, look i know most of you might be upset at me stating this game is "malware", but then you all think not and your opinion is totally different from my POV.

but the thing is that the game sounds very malicious, and i don't like it when games create files without your permission, so if the game is "safe" than how do you delete all the files without making them regenerate them back?, because i think once you try deleting it'll just re-make the file and add it back again, so basically the program runs in the background and you'd have to kill it with task manager or something?

i really hope the game isn't malware, because if it is upvoted from Steam Greenlight then that proves that this game couldn't be malware right?, well i've also heard that when a game was brought onto the Steam Greenlight people downloaded a demo from the game, and the game itself was a huge load of ♥♥♥♥ and people were angry about it, they've reported the game to Steam and they took it down.

so if this game definitely got released onto the Steam's store page, does this mean it's safe?, i cannot determine if it is or not there are more people who claim this game to be malicious, i feel like IMSCARED because of this game, if you get the joke right there, but besides that this game just sounds like something like a PUP or malware, is this game malware or can you delete the files that aren't malware?, i mean i don't want the game to haunt my PC and if it does is there a fix for it?, could you just completely uninstall the game and that would work?, please trouble shoot this for me, thanks.

The game acts like a malware to break all the rules and, in some way, be a terrifying "horror" game. Now, all it really does is create a folder on your desktop and places all the files the game creates in there. Now, you can delete all of this, but that would end up ruining the game and corrupting it. If you're planning to uninstall it, you simply delete the folder in your appdata and the folder on the desktop, and you can safely uninstall it. Next time you boot it up, it'll act as you launched it for the first time.

Long story short, don't worry. It won't damage your PC. just creep you out by the things it does.

No. This isn't an EA title. But maybe IMSCARED 2 will have a big enough budget for malware.

true, IMSCARED 2 would probably be a little more malicious for CreepyPasta purposes.
