Can you survive the nightmare and take control of the dream?You wake up in the maze of the monster - Bartholomew. In this maze, reality shifts between nightmare and dream, a constant cat and mouse chase where you take contrasting roles in each state.

During the Dream State you will need to chase Bartholomew and try your best to put him down with your trusty revolver however you need to be quick before the nightmare state begins anew.
In the Nightmare State, You are disarmed and hunted, the only viable options are your traps that can help slow down the monstrosity chasing you.

Collect the coins scattered along the maze so you can buy upgrades for your revolver and additional traps to kill the beast faster.

Don't stop running, don't stop hunting. HE. IS. Bartholomew...

Mid maze based FPS, mechanics are vaguely interesting but not well executed, generally boring, bartholomew is not a threat I am trying to review as many crappy horror games as possible 5/10

Not recommended. The game offers a "tutorial" that explains two or three basic steps and then suddenly just stops. Next thing you know, you stand in front of the end boss without any further instruction. The game concept itself (escaping/fighting a monster in a maze) may be OK, but it's done bad. As soon as you meet the boss, it is lame, because you just run away. You cannot even breathe for a second, there is no subtle horror, it is just annoying. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☐ Good ☐ Decent ☑ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☑ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☐ Not too bad ☑ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☐ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☑ Check if you can run paint ☐ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☑ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 10% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☑ Just press …

Nice little maze horror shooter game. It has a little bit of strategy and isn't complicated. I like the back and forth feeling of dread when in the nightmare and hope when you able to kill the monster.
