Caretaker (2019)

Not a terrible game, but it's also not a good one.

[h1]Caretaker[/h1] [i]Recommend this little horror title mostly for the creepy dark atmosphere/environment - also i liked the dynamic flashlight movement...[/i]

This game is definitely a walking simulator with no ability to fight the monster. The best thing to do is to run as much as possible and collect the objective items to progress forward. The achievements can be completed 100% on the first play through, but most people will miss one or two along the way. All achievements are easy and require little to no skill to achieve. This game does have some creepy moments and sinister environments with great detail, but the part it lacks most is a solid story line. Most the time you are just exploring and going from one place to another by following the labels on the map. It tells you everything you need to do in the beginning, but for some people this can be confusing or easily forgettable. Rate 4/10 because there was no way to tell where the items were because they were not highlighted with a luminescent glow. The Caretaker is the killer and once he grabs you there is no escape. You will spawn at the nearest checkpoint which is very close. Do not buy this game at face value, but get it on sale if you want the value of playing a game for a half hour to an hour. There were a few times where I got scared, but I am a rock when it comes…

Pros : - Believe it or not the atmosphere is quite scary - Graphics arent painfull to look at - Can be finished in one sitting easily - There is some effort behind it Cons : - The "caretaker" isnt that scary after you get caught for the first time - fragments of some story telling are nowhere to be find, other then title screen after you started the game - 1 hour of gameplay just isnt much for 7 euro - Stealth mechanics just arent working very well - Some truely cheap jumpscares (loud noise made by nothing and such) - No conclusion to the game - movement feels cluncy Overall : For this price point (7 euros) its just not worth it, maybe if u wait for some steam sale, otherwise just save your money

It is a very limited game in its sections, it does not stand out in any, it is simple and bland, look for keys, avoid the monster without charisma and finish the game. The backstory seems interesting but it doesn't unfold, maybe with more work something good could have been done. The game is not worth more than 3 euros.
