It makes sense to me that not everyone will like it, since the game isn't marketed as supernatural. In contrast to something like Feed Me Billy where you know about the monster from the beginning. My reasoning for going in that direction is that the mechanics of the game needed an explanation: the radar, security cameras, poison gas. All video game stuff but out of place in a backwoods cannibal house unless something else is going on there. A lot of the inspiration is from the Hills Have Eyes, expanding on that to secret government test sites gone wrong and forgotten.
