    For someone who has played very few horror games, Black Annis is a horror game that I am really enjoying (with the lights on) The visuals are stunning, the map design is beautiful and the voice acting is very well done. I am really looking forward to playing more, when I work up the courage to do so...

    Really enjoyed the game. Graphics are great. I didnt save my coworker but I saved myself so I would say the mission was mostly successful.

    For someone who has played very few horror games, Black Annis is a horror game that I am really enjoying (with the lights on) The visuals are stunning, the map design is beautiful and the voice acting is done well however the mixing was a bit off (the voice was quite loud). I managed to get the save Reggie ending with help from the developer. The game is solid I did get a bug where none of the audio sliders did anything but hopefully that was an issue for myself. Overall i'd recommend trying the game but it does have it's issues.
