Great game, I had a lot of fun and laughs with my friend, the game kinda reminds me of Outlast Trials of course this is a good thing not bad in my opinion. The game feels pretty polished but there is a few issues that would be nice to have fixed but besides from that I had fun, the only issues me and my friend experienced was the AI camping quite a lot and always spawning onto the same floor as you at all times regardless of difficulty and for some reason the games network connection for me randomly stopped working and the monster got me during that and for some reason I was stuck spectating the monster the entire time with my POV being his hand and we had to leave because of this issue but this only happened once.

If someone gets stuck at the orphanage during the part where you need to place objects on each grave, try removing them and placing them again. The issue occurs if an item is placed too early. We struggled with this for a while before figuring out that resetting the placements solves the problem.

Game was pretty and fun. I only had a few problems with it.. The difficulty feels like it's based on how annoying the Ai's navigation can be.. Easy, he'll linger near you but will eventually wander off. Normal/Hard, he ALWAYS lingers around you and never goes away, making sneaking around nearly impossible.
The OTHER problem was the audio. (This is where the game was even more difficult) You can NOT tell what floor the monster is on.. He can sound like he's right next to you, so you hide, just to find out he's at the bottom floor and you're actually completely safe/or vice versa.
Summary:
Easy mode was fun and still somewhat challenging, Normal/Hard was aids.
Killer's audio doesn't muffle/echo between floors so it sounds like he's always on your current floor.
Edit: Besides these two small problems, I actually REALLY did enjoy the game.

An oddly decent 'get out of the house' type horror game, Paranoia Place is probably best acquired on sale and with a friend to escape with because (as the early access mark should show you) additional content and balancing is in the cards still. Despite this, the game itself features a surprising amount of polish in most areas, but also critically lacks there of in others.
Puzzles within the first level mainly stick to the classic 'find the key/tool to open the door/chest', but also feature a memory puzzle that kept the experience interesting. The killer had many ways and tools to slow and track down the players which kept the atmosphere of the level intense as you try to keep stealth.
This game for us, lost the horror quality when the killer could be goaded or duked easily and the atmosphere became boring when we backtracked for lost items (I dropped my keys in a room and we didn't find them for 30 minutes.) With Paranoia being a prominent part of the game's title and setting, we expected more ways to be mentally assaulted by the killer outside of being simply chased when spotted.
Pro tip: The G key drops your items and can be used to easily gather your items into a room. DO NOT lose your items.
It has it's flaws, but it has it's polish as well and with a bit more of it, this game could be a hidden co-op horror gem. I would still recommend it and I sincerely hope we continue to get content for this one. Overall, 7/10, the place kind of gave me paranoia.

Following the recent update, they very much improved the game overall, we completed the first map last year and was very decent with a unique and fun concept. It is even better now with the addition of this second map, devs should stop working on those other bs games and focus on this one specifically, actually so good.

Honestly I love this game. Its such a fun game of cat and mouse with a killer/monster. I really LOVE getting to sneak around and explore a map while being just BARELY caught by the killer. The devs really put effort into environmental story telling with hiding gruesome details like bodies in fireplaces or hidden rooms full of scratch marks. I love the tricky replay-ability of the items and puzzles being scrambled each time so its a little different. Hats off to the devs who put so much time and work into this. You are all amazing and I really hope you keep adding to this game.
