✦ AI summary

Decay: The Mare is a short psychological horror game praised for its creepy atmosphere and effective scares, though players are divided on whether the obtuse puzzle design and abrupt cliffhanger ending justify playing through it. The game captures late-2000s horror aesthetics well enough for a quick experience, but its brevity and narrative incompleteness mean it works best as an impulse purchase rather than a full-price commitment.

Recommended Jul 23, 2026
Classic point-and-click psychological horror that nails the creepy, grimy atmosphere, but stumbles pretty hard on execution. The inventory puzzles can get frustratingly obtuse, and the short runtime combined with a sudden cliffhanger ending leaves a lot to be desired. It’s decent if you just want a quick dose of late-2000s Silent Hill vibes, but don't expect a masterpiece.

Yeah, I don't know about this one. It's alright; it's basically just "edgy Myst" I'm gonna try and play to the end to see what happens story-wise, but I fear it may lose my attention before then.

I don't know about you, but I was absolutely terrified playing this game. Even though it looks like it was thrown together in someone's spare time, I think that's just the style. AAAAAAA ♥♥♥♥, another jumpscare.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
