Near Death Experience

This game is such a blatant ripoff of Silent Hill, I'm honestly surprised the dev didn't name it "Silenced Hills". The gameplay is another one of those "run from the enemy" jobs. And you will do a lot of running. And dying. And repeating the same level over and over until you ragequit. Another horror genre game that fails to live up to the hype. Rating: 1/10

I enjoy more atmospheric / story-based horror games, where the experience is disturbing/distressing, and it sticks in your mind long after you stop playing the game. That's what I thought this game looked like, but it seems to actually just be jump scares. It's also got that hide-and-seek horror concept where you're defenseless and the monster or whatever just kills you instantly if it finds you, which I find kinda ruins the immersion. Because when you restart & just have to keep running through the same areas, you start to get desensitized to the environments. When it's just an atmospheric experience (i.e. no combat) then dying and having to re-play can get tedious. Not sure it's a bad game, exactly, but it's definitely not the game I was looking for.

VERY ANNOYING.

You want cheap jumpscares, asset flips so obvious it hurts, and literally no build up to the horror? Then this game is for you!

So the story is silent hill but thats whatever, I have no problem with games that take a story and switch it up a bit which this game does..but not in the right way. I dont want to go in depth into everything because the game follows a basic format. Enter zone, do puzzle, leave zone. The puzzles are veryyy hit or miss. Two of the puzzles were pretty interesting involving things like riddles and sound ques to know when you are moving to a new area, a bit of critical thinking, and a bit of clue deciphering. Other puzzles are things like: find a key on the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ground, find a piece of paper, find a couple of pictures while an enemy follows you (The slow moving 1 shot enemy cliche is getting soooo old) . Its just really odd how there's such a big difference between the puzzles. My two biggest complaints and by big I mean HUGE complaints are the flashlight and the perspective. The flashlight moves and sways without you moving. So basically throughout the game your flashlight is always doing a figure 8 motion and you have to move your mouse to try to compensate for the position of the light. The perspective in this game is amazingly odd. A bit of info for those who dont know, an ave…

disapointed bad graphics and boring long gameplay
