I really enjoyed the mystery solving aspect of the game. Love how the game doesn't hold your hand but instead let you deduct everything on your own. BUT, please add a psychological horror tag as content warning. There is minor horror element (and a chase sequence). Some people such as me is unable to handle even the slightest horror element. For this reason I cannot continue the game instead have to watch playthrough because I just can't handle the horror aspect.
I am in love with this game and cannot wait to get to the ending. It has a nice long game play to it, making you constantly guess your previous notions and thoughts. Investigate, Analyse, Derive and seek out more and more clues. This game will have you scratching you head and it is such a rush when you figure something out and make the puzzle pieces click together. This is the type of game I miss playing from my child hood and has been all but completely ignored in recent years, and I am truly enjoying myself right now. Alright, so Played for about 8 hours and ran into a bug. It actually prevented me from continuing the game. I send an email to EQ Studios and they resolved it and uploaded a patch to steam to prevent anyone else from having the issue ever again. Now I know what your thinking. This meant weeks without being able to play the game. But I was supersized. They responded to my
10/10 Get this game. Don't read any walkthroughs, feeling stuck? Go back to the places you've been, search for more clues. Take notes, you'll need them. And good luck, soon you'll know everything about Vivian and her story.
I really wanted to like this drawer-opening simulator. It has a great story, and the general concept of the game is a good one. But it's not a game that I can recommend. Puzzles are almost exclusively "find a key, unlock a drawer to get another key, repeat ad nauseum." At least they're mostly logical, except for a few irritating ones. But be prepared for more locked doors than the entire Silent Hill franchise. One of the interesting ideas about the game, the fact that you can explore the whole town for clues, works against it badly. Getting stuck and having to backtrack to explore entire buildings for something scrawled on a wall in an inconspicuous spot gets incredibly tedious. Holding down a button to "sprint" (i.e. walk slightly faster than a sloth) is tiresome and there are too many times where it seems you need to go to a particular place only to find there's really nothing there, o
The only bad thing about this game is once you beat it, you'll keep looking for games with similar quality and content, and you won't find them. This game will leave you feeling empty and lost once you've completed it - but, I guess it falls on us to meet the bar these devs have set forth. 5 stars 10/10 take my money, do it again.
Let me begin by first saying, I'm a grandfather who is nearly 60 that very much enjoys "cozy" games where there is not a huge amount of pressure on me to have conflicts or quick-time events in games. I do love immersive 1st person games like Cyberpunk 2047, Starfield, and the Fallout series. I do, however, very much prefer games that are heavy with "story" and in which I get to slowly understand through discovery the entirety of what is going on. This is my second review on Steam and realize I obviously have a pattern. Find a game you can play casually, one where you feel like you can make continuous progress, and one that is very story driven. My first review ever was for the game "What Remains of Edith Finch" and I put this game right up there for the power of it's story telling. A few things I really enjoyed about this game (no spoilers). You play in first person and get to explore
