Welcome to PINEHILLS

The game is akin to one puzzle like you would find in Res Evil 4 and the whole game has been centered around it. Find x number of angel statues around the game world and replace them in PineHIlls' church. Problem is after that hiding three or four statues and placing some very empty stock asset structures in about about six different spots the devs never came back to scatter the remaining angels. This should be Early Access but the empty discussion board suggests abandoned.

While the store page states it was released in August 28, 2021, it is not a full release. The files even state on the startup screen they are using the July Early Release. Therefore, this game is still "Early Release". I spent 2 hours going into every empty building, going along every road, covered the lighthouse and even went as far into the ocean until you fall off the map. The game only has 3 "otherworldly" flashbacks. The total number of angels you can find are 4 of 12. The game is impossible to complete because there are no more angels to find on the map. Once you find all 12 angles I'm guessing the trapdoor inside the church will open and you can complete the game? If you want a "complete game" with a similar map check out Titan Chaser. Your money will be better spent there unless the dev releases the complete game of Welcome to PINEHILLS cause right now this is not it folks! Some other things to fix: 1. Rain pours into every building. 2. Several buildings are devoid of any furniture or anything in them. 3. When you leave the car running and get out of the car you must turn off the car and then turn it back on in order to begin to drive the car. If you want t…

It is an unfinished game for sure, and likely abandoned. Even so, I got the game on sale and thought it was worth the price for what it offered. The part where the game shines most are the dream sequences where the large demonic goat head is looking over the area. Of all the games that add the same or similar character, the one in this game is perhaps the best well done as he looks menacing and awe aspiring at the same time. Most other games tend to make similar characters too ugly or poorly rendered, yet the silhouette look as a sharp contrast to the background and glowing eyes is well done. The unfinished housing area reminds me a lot of what cheap cookie cutter prefabricated homes look like before any appliances and additions are added. Unnecessary large rooms, poor layout and such. That area is perhaps the most realistic part of the game. The silence and emptiness gives a sense of being in purgatory, and perhaps it is purgatory since the character can not die nor swim in the water. Even at regular price with such an unfinished game, it is still better than many other games on Steam of a similar price, even the finished ones. Perhaps we will get lucky one day and the th…

waste of time

I love the idea of driving games combined with horror/mystery elements even though I get scared very easily. The gameplay feels very smooth and the world looks great so I hope the game will get updated with some more locations and plot elements to discover because as of yet, I don't think it's possible to find out what happened to the place. Also some signs would be nice before corners, I often had to look were the other roads were. I hope there will be a lot more games like these.
