As expected from a Horror game about a demonic clown-like entity, it does provide a lot of scares.


  • Remember how when you were a kid, you'll fear that a clown might try to kill and due to the clown's uncanny design, you were frightened as a result to the point of thinking that the circus is haunted?well, prepare to have flashbacks of that, because this game will.
  • The Clown, if anything is creepy with him, it's that his design looks terrifying for a horror game, as his right eye is mutated into having two extra eyes while also having a set of extremely sharp claws similarly to Freddy Krueger. Also, that damn scream he makes during the maze and the final boss fight.
  • The entire circus is mostly this, as the ground is covered with blood while many of the sets, such as the carousel, are quite dusty alongside the slightly-yellowish fog, giving the impression that this was abandoned for a reason.
  • When you enter the second floor, you are then greeted with an ear-piercing scream of the clown, where after that, you need to quickly run from him through a rather easy maze if you've mastered the controls, the fact that the maze begins by having the camera looking at the clown after he does his scream doesn't help at all.
    • Even worse, after the chase, you are then greeted to a room full of blood, and in the rooms, you need to solve a series of rather cryptic puzzles, in one room, if you look on the celiing as the glowing red letters say, the entire room gets dark and is then continued to a rather loud scream of said clown alongside letters that are supposed to represent laughing.
  • The fact that the game is revealed to be the result of an experiment gone wrong really does confirm on why the game is so creepy in the first place, and if the whole thing wasn't a dream, well…
