Saves you a refund- Players seeking a purely combat-focused horror game may find the emphasis on stealth and evasion restrictive

Our take on Krampus is Home
Rather than limiting the experience to a solo horror story, the game adds a separate survival mode and multiplayer matches with cooperative and competitive rules. Playable monsters also depart from the usual survivor-only framing, while stealth and escape sit alongside direct defense.
