Dissection

This is another cheap entry into the "[i]collect-items-while-avoiding-a-monster[/i]" horror genre. It is from an indie dev, done in first-person view, and the monster is a skinless corpse. Although it is described on it's Store Page as "[i]horror[/i]", I would not categorize this game as true horror. I did not find it scary at all. Somewhat suspenseful, yes, but not scary at all. However, I would call it a pretty good cat-&-mouse stealth game, and a good puzzle. There is no background, and no story. You just start out in a locked room in a house. You must search the room for the key to unlock the door. Then you avoid the skinless corpse and race upstairs to find an item. Then you race back downstairs to find an item. Rinse and repeat 15 to 20 times. Most of items are keys, and usually the item you get helps you in some way to get the next item. You can only carry 1 item at a time, so there is exactly 1 specific order in how you must progress, and figuring out this specific order is the puzzle. The whole time you are running back and forth between upstairs and downstairs, this skinless corpse patrols throughout the entire house. There is a giant wardrobe closet …

its very repetitive with 1 way to avoid him which is closets but its very difficult to avoid him for a whole run https://youtu.be/ynJNBBqm9WE?si=IHhHtRXuOMn2sBNh

Dissection is one of those games where you start in a locked room for an unknown room, and you have to escape a house while evading a monster. There are the usual locked doors and hidden keys to unlock said doors, the lack of answers and the super-powered monster. In this case it's a weird dude that moves super fast as soon as he sees you. He doesn't run, he just moves really fast. And there's no crouch, so good luck trying to be stealthy.

hilarious game, u can noclip almost into any room as far as i know if there are props near a wall

It's incredibly broken but I like the simplistic puzzle element and the game as a whole was enjoyable to figure out. You are basically trying to escape a house by solving rudimentary puzzles that involve picking up an item like a key and using it somewhere else. All the while, there is a man who is burned or has no skin who is just wandering around. If he finds you, the game ends immediately. At first the game seems impossible since he will always see you no matter what you do, but I learned a few things after a couple hours that made sense of it. For example, if he's heading upstairs he will stay there a while, so really if you are patient you can wait until he changes floors and get everything done on the floor you're on in the meantime. You can hide in wardrobes, but if he sees you hiding in the wardrobe it won't help. There's no animation if he catches you, but it can still feel pretty scary since you have to start over. You can also hear and see doors swinging open, so if you're patient you can see what room he entered. It's still incredibly broken but not as much of a hassle once you figure it out. Given this is a game made from recycled assets likely made by one guy I wo…

Avoid this game at all costs. It is frustrating, boring and rubbish. Not recommended.
