What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
An acid trip is essentially the subjective, often intense mental and sensory experience caused by LSD, shaped by the user’s mindset and surroundings. It can be profound, disorienting, pleasurable, or frightening depending on many factors. Some of its characteristics are: * Hallucinations & visual distortions: geometric patterns, fractals, or altered environments. * Altered sense of time: minutes may feel like hours. * Emotional intensity: rapid shifts between euphoria, introspection, anxiety, or fear. * Influence of “set and setting”: mood, expectations, and environment strongly shape the experience. And this is a ~30 minute weird game where you only use arrows/WASD and E to explore.11 found this helpful
It's a walk around point-and-click sort of game, with no mouse action. Really short. There's no controls in-game sadly, but it's E to interact and WASD or the arrow keys to move. The sound design and the visuals really make the game. There's quite a lot of flashing lights but they have a disable option in game for that. I like it, it is short... but would I recommend playing it yourself vs watching a video of the gameplay? No.1 found this helpful
This game is a crunchy type of charming. Grotesque and silly designs and animation abound. As most folks have shared it's short, odd and trippy. To be specific however, in gameplay its 50% whimsy and 50% dodge mechanics as you traverse through the caves talking to strange beings. Other than that there are two small minigames invovlving matching stone faces and punching bugs for points. While I think i enjoyed my strange experience, I do wish there was more. But overall would recommend purely for the character and personality of this game. Please enjoy its bizarro & jagged edges.1 found this helpful
I LOVED THIS GAME. genuinly everything about this game is perfect, the art, music, and story all fit together perfectly to create a surreal and intrigueing world. A true masterpeice, I cant wait to see what games the developer makes in the future!
SCHUBERT THE HAMMER!! THE HAMMER SCHUBERT! THE HAMMER!! THE HAMMER!!!!
A very simple, trippy drawn game with really groovy music. But.. but.. but.. even though I agree with other reviewers who enjoyed it, the fact that it is so short still spoiled the experience for me a bit. I was just starting to get into the story and vibe with the visuals when suddenly it was all over right after that puzzle with random shapes and objects. It’s a shame, of course, but still it is definitely worth its ridiculously low price. I would really like to see something similar from the developer again (And I get that everything being hand-drawn is really cool these days, thank God they didn't put in any AI crap) just at least an hour or longer next time.
