Echoes Of The House

What was that? I thought it was meant to be a horror, instead it's just 40 minutes of walking and doing tasks. Disappointing.

a short fun and rather creepy horror game! 10/10

Echoes Of The House is a psychological horror game developed and published by Sordar Studios that embraces a focused, story-driven approach. Rather than building its experience around combat, survival mechanics, or lengthy progression systems, the game centers on atmosphere, exploration, and an unsettling narrative that slowly reveals itself over the course of a single evening. The story follows Christopher, a young man who arrives at his grandmother's rural home expecting a normal visit, only to find himself caught in a series of disturbing and increasingly mysterious events. The game's strongest feature is its ability to create tension through uncertainty. From the moment players enter the isolated house, there is a lingering sense that something is wrong.

This was quite good, very interesting. The only problem was the AI voices. Hire me next time, I'll do it for free.

It's fine for the first 45 seconds. You walk in, talk to grandma, and the second there's more then two lines of dialogue, you notice the AI slop voices. Every is line delivered without emotion. Fine, let's push on to see if maybe the atmosphere, writing, or story can carry this home. Absolutely not. I'm convinced the dev had this entire storyline written by chatGPT. Nothing makes sense, nothing is scary, and the atmosphere is the equivalent of playing with the light switch. Ooh, the lights are flashing, spooky. I've played a bunch of these indie horror titles, this one would be completely forgettable if it didn't have the AI, now I'll remember it as terrible.
