Maid of Sker

The devs underestimated my willpower to hold down RUN and ignore every single enemy. 10/10 would cough again.

Good game!

Charming short spooky puzzle game.

Quality playthrough here. I enjoyed the story, the voice acting, the objectives made sense and I felt like I was progressing the whole time, decent monster creation, and great music too. Lots of good things with this game, but $25 normal price is a little high. I think this is a $10 - $15 game all day long. It felt as it appears for the most part. Smaller budget Resident Evil type piece. It isn't a scary game, really, but there are a lot of pretty and atmospheric environments throughout. Check it out on sale for sure. 6.3 / 10

i initially got into this game because of sker ritual, the spinoff wave shooter of this game. after having played that i feel like i have a basic understanding of the story but its fun to get to see where it all started. the gameplay is similar to the first resident evil game, explore a mansion, solve puzzles and avoid enemies to find keys and useful items. health pots are few and far between but save points are frequent enough. this has led me to play the game at 1 hp for a large chunk of it and honestly its a little infuriating. random glass shattering sounds result in a purple cloud that does very little damage but seem to be impossible to detect beforehand and they do at least 1hp. i have no idea how far the enemies can you hear you but as far as i can tell they can hear you sprint even though there is no apparent sound effect for your own footsteps in the game. the major enemies are cool to encounter and are quite intimidating without any weapons. all you can do is run.
