OtherIs holo8 worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Hololive fans who want an anomaly-spotting game rather than combat-focused gameplay
- Horror players who enjoy repeated office inspection and elevator decisions
- Players seeking a hidden-story mystery with a mode that removes horror effects
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking combat, exploration, or character progression will find the gameplay centered on repeated office inspection.
- Those who dislike spotting small environmental changes may hit a wall when an elevator choice depends on noticing an anomaly.
- Players wanting one fixed difficulty may not suit the split between Anomaly Mode and Everyday Mode.
Our take on holo8
The bounce point arrives when the office loop demands close visual comparison rather than action. Missing an anomaly sends the run toward the wrong elevator, while uncovering the full set also requires repeating the investigation across both play modes.
What is holo8?
holo8 is an observation-based horror game set in a temporary Hololive office trapped in an elevator loop.
Each cycle requires inspecting the office for unusual changes, then choosing the red elevator when an anomaly is found or the blue elevator when none is detected. More than 70 Hololive members from JP, ID, EN, and DEV_IS can appear, along with over 100 anomalies involving members and office details. Anomaly Mode includes normal difficulty, horror effects, and game-over effects. Everyday Mode uses a lower difficulty setting without those effects and features many Hololive members. Discovering anomalies across both modes can unlock a bonus movie and reveal the temporary office's hidden story.
