Setting
The game takes place in a really strange abandoned structure. At different points of the game, the structure resembles either the ruins of a residential complex, a castle, or a battleground set. Walking around the setting feels a little surreal, and the entire place has an uncanny aura to it.
It’s as if the structure was generated by AI that understands what human settlements and structures look like, but not the purpose for which they’re built or the finer nuances of occupation and movement. Something just feels slightly off about the setting, which speaks to how well-made and thought-out the game is.
Gameplay
For the most part, the gameplay in No Players Online is fairly straightforward - if not slightly confusing. Upon wandering around the environment for a short while, it becomes clear that a game of capture the flag is afoot. From there onwards, you simply run around trying to capture flags.
Although true to the creepypasta and internet horror form, eventually, the game takes a sinister turn. It all seems to start with a jukebox. Without revealing too many spoilers, No Players Online is bound to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Frightfully fun
If you’re into horror, psychological thrillers, and internet mysteries, you’ll enjoy No Players Online. The game sticks to the general idea of the phenomenon upon which it is based without taking itself too seriously.
All in all, No Players Online is a frightfully fun playthrough. You need to just keep your wits about you when the horror begins.
