808 - Firetower12

Interesting concept, but the game is really dark, as in its hard to see anything. Very similar to Fears to Fathom Ironbark Lookout. It also threw me off a bit when the game is supposed to take place in the 90's, but you use a phone with what looks like iOS and there are references to Uber. Did not appreciate the "For some reason I am driving like a woman today" lmao.

Considering its low price, this is a really good product. I recommend this if you're into interactive narrative stories similar to [i]Fears to Fathom[/i]. You will get around 1 to 1.5 hours of gameplay, depending on your pace.

It's easy to tell that the developer has put a lot of effort into the making of this game. The only real 'trouble' I experienced was that the narration was a bit off, and sometimes a bit hard to follow. The result is that it's a bit hard to follow in some instances, but in the big picture, still very enjoyable narration. I had a rough time imagining what the ending was gonna be like. Just couldn't decipher it based on the information we had gotten prior to the ending, but what a great way to end the story. Definitely not what I expected.

Do you want a game historically inaccurate, so dark you can close your eyes and see exactly whats on the screen in some scenes with a non sensical story, this game is it. Otherwise I would recommend you to pass on this one

LOVE IT THEY NEED TO MAKE MORE FIRE WATCH TOWER GAMES

UPDATE: changing the review to "not recommended". The game is abandoned because it hasn't received any updates to fix the issues. Developer's first project is a learning experience with a few nice ideas but also a few really bad ones. You play a recent graduate who is now looking for work because his mother wants to kick him out. After a few weeks of looking for the appropriate job, you receive an opportunity to become a fire lookout. You quickly accept it. The gameplay is similar to that of a typical walking simulator or an indie horror game. You move around and use the left mouse button to interact with objects. To provide a cinematic experience, the cursor is barely visible. Sadly, this makes it impossible to discern which objects can be interacted with. Another issue is that objectives are not displayed anywhere. If you miss the objective text, you will not know what to do until you get too far and the character reminds you what you need to do. There are no visible cues. One major critique is that you cannot return to the main menu once in the game. The only way to exit is via alt-f4. Visuals play a big role in delivering the unsettling experience. Because it takes place…

This game is surprisingly well done especially for the price and I'm genuinely looking forward to what the developer creates next. The atmosphere had me tense and expecting the worst turning every corner, I LOVED the dream sequences cuz they gave me that queasy uncanny feeling. Was not expecting my jaw to be on the floor either. I streamed it live last night and it was a great experience 9/10 would recommend. Biggest issue - it was very dark indoors and in the beginning area. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrqG8uiLCCc
