« It's a neat horror game that goes through a slew of phobias to see what would scare the hell out of you. Note that it's really short (30 to 60 minutes tops). »

« This isn't a game - it's just a brute-force search for right door (with 50/50 chance). The first few jump scares might scare you, but most of them look funny. The graphics are primitive. »

« This game is just pure trial and error trying to remember the doors, it's all just 50/50 chance. Not even really scary tbh, game has virtually no depth whatsoever. »

« I actually really enjoyed Project Threshold. It was really creepy and it definitely made me jump a few times. The atmosphere was so good and eerie. I’d definitely recommend it if you like short horror games. »
