✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the game's concept and atmospheric design, with engaging level layouts and decent enemy variety that make it fun and addicting for some. However, the game suffers from significant technical issues including game-breaking bugs with portals and black screens, persistent settings that won't save properly, repetitive gameplay elements, poor boss design that lacks fair mechanics, and optimization problems that frustrate players, while some find the overall experience too boring or scary to hold their interest.

Good concept but lacks polish. Firstly I'd say that the boss could use a stun mechanism to evade it due to only shot death. Secondly very buggy, whenever you go through the white portal the screen gets stuck with the music on loop preventing me to progress onto the next level, also the every time you die I would be stuck on a black screen & had to spam space-bar & enter. The settings even though you would set the display to your desired resolution it forces back on 1280x1440p, same goes for the mouse sensitivity, it resets all the way to max. Other than that I'd say not bad for a first game from a small developer.

The game felt kind of boring and not very scary. I got pretty bored of it within 30 minutes. 4/10

"Guardian of the Grave" — атмосферный хоррор с захватывающим сюжетом, в котором игрок принимает роль охранника могилы, защищающего мир от злых духов. Графика мрачная, но детализированная, а звуковое сопровождение усиливает напряжение. Игра предлагает уникальные механики, такие как управление духами и решение головоломок, но местами геймплей становится повторяющимся. Сюжет требует внимания к деталям, а диалоги добавляют глубины. Однако сложная система управления и низкая оптимизация могут оттолкнуть новичков. Для ценителей жанра — обязательное испытание.

This game is pretty fun and addicting! I only have a few complaints overall, i loved the levels themselves other than the Crushers... I died almost ONLY to them, While the enemy variety was good it left much to be desired as there was only three different kill-able enemies other than bosses. The bosses are sometimes annoying to locate and half the time they get the jump on you with no audio cues! I only dint like how fast the mouse was i had to even change my DPI to get a decent sensitivity. Overall i had a great experience with this work!
