Heroine's Claw

Solid first game from an indie dev! Action horror game with real voice acting is a nice touch too!

The game is alrigt as it just works. I appreciate that there is voice actin' here. By the end of the game tho i just wanted it to be over with lol. Just when ya think ya were gonna beat it..somethin' else pops up. Still doesn't mean it's a bad game. It's rather solid for the price. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/3r--DF8YbzI

If you enjoy straightforward games that just work, this one might catch your interest. The voice acting is a nice touch and adds some personality to the journey, which is appreciated. Early on, there’s a lot to like — gameplay has a solid, reliable feel and there’s a good bit of fun to be had during the first few hours. For the price, the game offers a fair amount of content. That being said, the pacing drags near the end. Just when it seems like you’re about to reach the conclusion, another section appears and stretches things out. Rather than building tension, it starts to outstay its welcome by the last quarter. Some of the challenges, particularly boss encounters and certain puzzle segments, feel off-balance.

Real fun game at the start and I enjoyed the first 3/4ths of the game but I didn't complete it, and here's why (including some thoughts on certain sections: [spoiler] underwater boss was harder than it should have been, the masked guy was a bullet sponge (unless I was fighting him wrong?) and the maze bit made me quit the game, the statues moved really fast and on top of that there were even more statues that would give chase and would instantly kill you if you took your eye off them, not sure if I was doing something wrong but damn it was not fun. [/spoiler] I'm gonna give it another shot after some updates, I did have fun like I stated earlier and there's still other things that can be worked. this feels like a promising game but as of right now, it's a 2/5 for me due to the issues I experienced.
