Bad Omens: 8th Apartment

Bought [i][b]Bad Omens: 8th Apartment[/b][/i] purely because of the name — I mean, I’m a fan of [b]Bad Omens[/b], so I had no choice. No regrets… I guess? The game is super short, you can 100% it in about 30 minutes, and the achievements are ridiculously easy. Definitely something for achievement hunters. Other than that, it’s basically just a simple click-and-run with not much going on — but hey, at least the name delivered

5/10 Story is okay, very basic. Definitely a quick play. The graphics and details look good, I enjoyed how everything looked. Game is very dark in certain areas. The crosshair is invisible until you hoover over a item you can interact with, which gets a little frustrating trying to turn lights on. I got stuck on trying to heat the pizza, as I couldn't interact with microwave after putting the pizza inside. I would recommend getting this one on sale.

honestly terrifying, good fun 8.5/10

Overall gameplay 5/10 Sound effect was good. Visual was good as well. Just that the story is very short. It's not a bad game. Just too short and abrupt.

Nice graphics and decent environment, but too many drawbacks to enjoy: 1. No voice acting 2. No remapping of the keys (Why on EARTH you have to press space bar for the dialogues!?) 3. You can't disable the headbobbing. 4. Being chasing and getting caught is frustrating and an neverending cliche.

I [i]wanted[/i] to like it. But getting stuck in the same place over and over again because a hint to "run" pops up on screen before I'm even able to do so ruins it for me (you can see the exact scene I'm referring to in the trailer). If I try when it says so nothing happens, if I move before the Event I don't trigger it at all, but if I wait a few seconds into the Event and try to use other visual/sonic cues it's already too late. I feel like [i]maybe[/i] if I could use a controller I might be able to get the timing right, but that's not supported and I can't be bothered to go through the process to map keyboard controls to a controller with external software. Which leaves me feeling like it's an (albeit entirely unintentional) Accessibility issue.
