Observer is a frustrating game. On the one hand, Observer has some downright incredible writing. The authorship, art style, vision, and atmosphere are all 10 / 10. Additionally, the game is absolutely traumatizing, which, if you're here reading this review, is probably what you're looking for. Observer is that special kind of horror that isn't too directly, viscerally scary, but imparts much more of a slow, cerebral dread. The game has its gore and it has its jump-scares, but mostly it's just downright disturbing, to the point where I was literally dreading my next session, but had to go on to unravel the mystery. And if you play to the end, this game seriously delivers. Man, what a finale. On the other hand, Observer is unfortunately buggy as hell. And not just getting stuck on corners and weird floating objects. The game has certain situations that are so severely broken that you can
This is effectively two games. Half the time, it is a deep cyberpunk noir story, where you as a detective use your implants to collect clues and solve a murder inside a small but extremely detailed and complex location. The other half, it is a very bad horror game. When you will stop playing detective and start playing itch.io quality horror is a complete surprise, and sadly the former takes up less and less of the game as the story progresses. I deeply wished I lived in the timeline where the devs picked a lane and stayed in it instead of trying to force a particularly bad version of their usual horror game formula into an otherwise fantastic game concept. The parts that aren't trying to be scary are so great that I'd suggest playing this anyways, but be sure to get it on sale, and expect a lot of your time to be wasted with redundant, poorly stylized and painful-to-look-at imagery th
Foreword Originally, Observer was released in 2017. The upgraded version is something that came 3 years later. In this review I will be focusing on all aspects of the game. If you are interested in the updates only head over to the paragraph with the appropriate title. The original version I played via Epic - I also have it here on Steam, however, when completing System Redux I did 2 playthroughs already and I didn't want to do two more again so I decided to just put everything I have to say about the games here. Walking Sim I consider Observer an interesting game with exciting lore but, first and foremost, this is a walking sim. You play from the first person but you have no weapons at your disposal. And as the development team was Bloober (the folks behind Layers of Fear) expect a couple of jump-scares as well as dreamlike sequences that will test your sensory perception and might d
Highly atmospheric dystopian cyberpunk horror mystery 'walking simulator'/adventure game. Unfortunately, i have encountered a progress-halting bug. As the game only has auto-save, i cannot reload an earlier save to try and avoid whatever caused it, as i did for the previous two major bugs i encountered. Also unfortunately, the game has not been supported basically since release. This is essentially an update to the original game (which is no longer listed on Steam). The owners of the original game had to basically petition just to be given a discount on this updated version. Unfortunately, unlike the games made by another famous games publisher who also make buggy games and have a similar unethical practice of selling 'Definitive Editions' as new games, this game has no accessible console commands or mod support, and so i cannot fix my game. It is basically linear, so i won't replay 8 h
