: Instead of constant jump scares, it focuses on the feeling of being watched in an empty store at night, utilizing "liminal space" environments like deserted aisles and dark parking lots.

: The "feature" of the gameplay is its repetition. You perform realistic clerk duties—scanning items, checking expiration dates, and heating food—which lulls the player into a false sense of security before introducing supernatural anomalies.

: The game uses a distinct "VHS film" filter (adjustable in settings) to emulate the grainy, unsettling look of 1990s Japanese horror cinema and analog recordings.
