Dreadful

Maybe with enough updates this could be an interesting game. But for now, glitches abound, terrible performance, ridiculous story, absolutely cheap gameplay mechanics for the enemy, and hilarious voice-acting. Oh wait. That's like all of the game. DO NOT BUY. If you need more evidence, here's some of the worst and strangest moments of the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5G8CGVF8kU

For an early access game its good but does need some work, needs a few changes like making the characters movement more smooth and not looking like a constant struggle when running and is quite buggy right now (but its early access so i'll let it slide :P) . I admit i was super excited about this game being in a haunted house and having to get around the spooks and from then ending of the trailer i had seen is what made me buy it, i wish it had more of that as that was what i was interested in, its hard to scare me and this certainly got me on the edge of my seat, however when that came to an end and i was outside i felt like i'd kinda was in a silent hill game with the fog and no one around and fighting monsters. I love the idea of going into first person mode when entering a house as it gives more suspense as to whats around the next corner and you feel like your more into the game than just a character. I like where this game is going but i loved being in the scarey haunted appartment more than the outside, it got me more on edge, i hope it continues with the jumpscares as its rare to find good ones in games. I look forward to playing the full release.

While there are still a few mechanical issues that need some work, I absolutely loved the different style gameplays presented with the first person section within the home and having to avoid the lurking enemy then moving to the third person, Silent Hill-like style that brought the game into a survival/exploration horror rather than sticking to the defenseless! Great balance and looking forward to final release for sure!

I personally thought this game was pretty nice. It scared the ♥♥♥♥ outa me a few times but it has a couple bugs but what more can you expect since its Alpha. Honestly I can suggest people who like horror games to buy this. Made me jump a few times and I had chills the entire time. Heres gameplay of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZjlD4yOOSk

This game was good made some videos about in the past but i wouldnt buy it now tbh the game has been abandoned so please dont waste your money on a half made abandoned game

Dreadful, developed and published by Volens Nolens Games, is a survival horror experience that attempts to blend psychological tension with investigative gameplay. Centered around the haunting story of a family massacre, the game places players in the role of David Hill, a journalist investigating the mysterious deaths surrounding the Smith family. The narrative promises an eerie atmosphere steeped in ambiguity, where reality may be unreliable, and danger lurks in both what is seen and unseen. Despite its promising concept, the game struggles to fully realize its potential due to technical shortcomings and uneven execution. The story sets a dark, unsettling tone from the start. The Smith family tragedy, involving a father who allegedly killed his wife and children before committing suicide, forms the grim backdrop for the investigation. As David Hill, players explore the family home and the surrounding town, piecing together clues to unravel the truth. The game heavily emphasizes atmosphere, using dim lighting, sparse sound design, and detailed environments to build a sense of dread. A recurring theme is the unreliability of perception, inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s famous quote, …
