The game was quite notable for several patches on the creator's site made to tone down the creepiness factor due to complaints from people being too terrified to finish the game and locked the real horrors away in the harder difficulties. It was later released on mobile phones in 2009 but sacrificed the 3D graphics for still images that hampered the atmosphere of the game.

While regarded by many as a cult classic, the game had been seen by many as not having a chance of a sequel or re-release...
