STORY:
Benjamin Farwell is a retired Paranormal detective. He and his partner, Ralph Hudson, were experts in removing trapped souls from places all over the world. Having achieved great success and wealth, Benjamin was ready to retire from investigations, but Ralph wanted to do one last job together: Lansinet Castle.
They knew it was infamously host to hundreds of trapped souls, and anyone who dared venture inside never returned. Nevertheless, they bravely sought out to find the truth and help release the spirits. Before they were able to complete their quest, Ralph was mysteriously killed, his soul trapped in the castle. Benjamin managed to escape with his life, but could hardly remember any details of the night. This troubled him to no end. He vowed to quit paranormal investigation for good.
Years later Benjamin suddenly felt Ralph’s spirit calling out to him from the castle. He was still there, enduring endless agony. Benjamin reluctantly returns to the castle in search of Ralph’s soul so he can finally put this memory to rest. Can Benjamin manage to survive the castle and unravel its many mysteries? Or will he fall victim like so many before him? There’s only one way to find out: head inside.

Delusions of a Lost Soul is an excellent, spooky game with fantastic pixel art, a mysterious story, intriguing puzzles and unsettling music. This is a very promising debut from a new solo developer with a lot of heart. Highly recommend!!!3 found this helpful
Loved the atmosphere, the puzzles and the story. I am not generally a huge fan of creepy games, but I really enjoyed this one. I would love to see a prequel in which we get to know our partner even more and learn more about this world.2 found this helpful
Very short game with some interesting ideas and nice ambience. I'd love to see a more fleshed-out game someday that uses the 'special flashlight' mechanic and similar style.1 found this helpful
Love the weirdly immersive use of puzzles. Great dev and great game. DEFINITELY worth all $4 - Here's hoping he makes more! :)1 found this helpful
This had a lot of potential but unfortunately ended up being pretty underwhelming. The low price makes up for the very short length (by my playtime, 36 minutes), but I wouldn't call it a "short but sweet" type of game. The puzzles were very simple and easy. The story was bland and never went anywhere interesting. None of the characters stood out. I hate to give a passion project by a small team a negative review, but this game felt like a waste of time.1 found this helpful
Great game, amazing storyline and gameplay for the size. Hope to see more like it in the future! 10/10
