This game is a phenomenal work of art. It starts out as a psychological horror with hints of a story. As you progress, you learn more and more of the tragic narrative lying beneath the surface. While it starts off with heavy horror elements, these elements become less of a focus as you burrow down into the character's psyche. Many people consider this a negative because they expected and wanted horror throughout; however, I still enjoyed it despite the fact that it calmed down towards the end. I became so engrossed in the story that I no longer cared whether it was terrifying or not.

Overall, Detention is a fantastic game. I highly recommend it.

TL;DR: Great game, a few flaws, just play it.
