People hate to admit it because the narrative is that all these games have nothing of value, but it is a good game. ymmv on how scary it is but it is well made.

Mascot horror as a whole would be a lot better if it relied on shit like that and went for a more atmospheric kind of horror, instead of going all in on marketable designs and jumpscare streamer bait shit like what the majority of those games do. It sucks that the shit that sells to zoomers and gen alphas the most is also the shittiest part of that subgenre.

It is supposed to startle them by being unexpected, which is the "cheapest" way to make a horror game, and you can thank Scott Cawthon of Five Nights At Freddy's for making this cheap tactic into the indie horror game standard for the last 10+ years. >>719120474
That is supposed to be fun, not scary.
Also it looks more menacing than a literal toy.
"Horror" games do not scare anybody except for kids. It is not supposed to scare adults it is just a dark genre lol.
