About experiment: one

If you wanted to tell a story, where would you start?

Average game completion time: 90 minutes

All stories start differently. This story is about a girl named Evelyn who works at a helpline.
One ordinary day, her boss calls her and asks her to stay on the night shift.
Not falling asleep at night in the office after a hard day's work is another test. But it is much more difficult in this situation to save lives.

Warning!


Epileptic seizures associated with increased sensitivity to light are possible. Some people may experience seizures when exposed to flashes of light and flashing images that appear in video games. People who have not previously experienced such seizures may not be aware of their illness. A reasonable restriction of the gaming audience is recommended.

Features of the game:
- "Walking Simulator"
- "First person" Psychological horror .
- Expanded system of dialogues, on which the end of the game depends.
- An atmosphere of quiet horror or the calm before the storm.

You are the only one who can save or kill the person on the other end of the line.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZQ6IZCm3hc https://rumble.com/v2gjv1q-experiment-one-horror-game-ending.html I really liked this new horror game. It got me scared good a couple of times lol, there are not many if any puzzles present and you don't really have to do much other than walk, answer the phone (Evelyn works at a Helpline), get scared and run from the shadowy spider creature. There should be more horror games like this, just pure horror with a story and few to none puzzles. The graphics are ok, the story is good, sounds are ok and the atmosphere is really nice. Aside from some movement problems and the fact the it was too dark on some areas everything went smooth and I can't wait for the next part. Congrats to devs!

Good idea, bad execution. It is pretty rough around the edges. It performs poorly with a lot of frame rate drops and freezes, the environments are way too dark in some areas, and it has no flow. The one monster stealth area is too easy, as there is no real threat from the monster. The game as a whole is a bit boring and tedious, even if it only takes about 45 minutes to beat. The scene cuts are jarring and nonsensical; they are not smooth or satisfying at all. This also means that the story does not initially make a whole lot of sense, though it does seem to have good potential. The developers were clearly trying to say something here about mental health, and they had some creative ideas to express the topic, but it was just poorly done. I understand that this game was made on a low budget with a small development team, but it honestly seems like a first draft of a game rather than a finished product. I hope the developers learn from this game and continue to get better and better at developing. They have a great idea here, and they clearly intend on continuing this game's story, so hopefully they keep going. I am looking forward to seeing how they improve. If you are looking to bu…

Just one more of many short indie horror games. Although it was a positive experience, nothing particularly remarkable happened. You take the role of a woman working at the help center. One evening while working alone, you begin to notice strange things happening every time you pick up the phone. There are flickering lights, devices turning on, and a shadow figure observing you. The usual stuff. Those who call in are tense. Either act professionally and attempt to assist as much as you can, or act rudely and try to get rid of them as soon as you can. Choose the right response and you'll see the next half of the game. These interactions have a wonky script that is immediately obvious. There are grammatical errors, no capital letters, and sections that don't flow well. Unexpectedly, other areas appear considerably better. Throughout the entire game I observed a consistent, slight headbobbing that looks like breathing. Although I wasn't bothered by it, some people find this annoying. There aren't many locations in the game. The office, a hallway, and the roof are all found in the first half of the game. You're just wandering around as you wait for the next call. Things of interes…

The game is very minimalist with the character design... but the environment looks rather nice. So if you're a graphics gamer... this one may not be completely up to par for you. However... if you're a story driven gamer... then this one may just be something you've overlooked for far too long. The game isn't very long... but the story will have you wrapped up into it so much that you'll forget about the time all together until it's over. There's not any action sequences or anything like that either... this game is purely made to make you feel unsettled... and tell it's story... and it does a very good job at that.

Fun indie horror game. Really cant beat the price on this one. Has a couple of scares in it. Loved the idea behind it and super excited for the "to be continued." Hope this dev releases more content.
