  • Paranoia Fuel: The entire point of the horror. Not only can the stalker be hiding anywhere, but anyone can be the stalker or an accomplice, from random NPCs to possibly even your own best friend. This combined with the strange noises and other happenings constantly keep the player on edge even when nothing can actually hurt you in that moment.
  • Realism-Induced Horror: Despite having no supernatural elements whatsoever, the game gets chilling paranoia out of concepts of doxxing, psychological manipulation, stalking, the possessiveness of fandoms, and general invasions of privacy that are frighteningly possible in real life. Several VTubers who have played the game have remarked on how close to home the plot hits for them, particularly when Nina's face is suddenly revealed on stream.
