If you’re feeling extra brave, you could give Nightmare Mode a try. Given the randomized nature of the levels ought to keep tensions and unpredictability high, as well as offer plenty of replayability. One important thing to take note of is that the game features a lot of flashing lights and pulses. It will not be suitable for anyone with photosensitivity or anyone with epileptic conditions.
