About Huntsman: The Orphanage (Halloween Edition)
MORE STORY THAN GORY! A HYBRID OF ALTERNATIVE HORROR AND CREEPYPASTA...
Welcome to the Halloween Edition v1.03!
Take a deep breath, dim the lights, put on your headphones...
Non-linear first-person gameplay lets you explore Grimhaven Orphanage and discover the characters who once lived there – voiced by Dan Bull, Chuck Huber and Raychul Moore, plus a multitude of other great voices from around the world - some of which we discovered through our global YouTube auditions!
We call this ‘alt horror’ because it has no graphic violence, blood or guns. As the player, you have no defense... however, you must show empathy and courage to save the twelve missing orphans. This is a game for people who like to explore, listen, think and solve - and play cat and mouse in a dark and scary maze. Listen to the nineteen personal creepypasta-style stories to piece together the mysterious events of that fateful night in 1898, when twelve orphans simply... disappeared! Now with shorter (30-60 sec) in-game stories to enhance the tension and new plot twists when you least expect them! And don’t panic story lovers! The full stories are still there – on the menu page and somewhere within the game… if you know where to look!!
Find the twelve orphan’s mementos and place them on the correct headstones to set the lost souls free. Did we mention the headstones are in a hedge maze? Custom-created by a ‘Ripley’s Believe-It-Or-Not’ Maze Master? No problem! But first you’ll have to find the key... Are you up to the challenge? Did we mention the Huntsman… in the maze… stalking you? Did we mention he may also be lurking in Grimhaven Orphanage?
So – how fast can you turn and run? Well you won’t know ‘till you check it out! So go do it! Have fun!! Scare yourself as much as you want (maybe you should keep the hallway light on…!)
This is a Free Upgrade for all our Steam key holders and supporters of our Black Friday Edition – THANK YOU!

The atmosphere is decent but the game is simply just too slow and boring - it's just another mediocre horror game. You can definitely still get some level of enjoyment out of it, however there are many better horror games out there for $8.99 or less.4 found this helpful

Terrible waste of time. No options whatsoever, including mouse sensitivity. Walk speed is painful, which is unfortunate, because all you do it walk. Skip this one.
I don't like giving out bad reviews but I have to for this one. It just isn't a good game. At the time of me writing this, this game has a 36% positive review score. That's horrible! That means 64% of players didn't like this game. Which is over half and almost even 2/3s. If 2/3 people don't like this game that means, it's not that good. As much as I don't like doing this, I needed to let you know that this was a bad game. I won't bother telling you all of its flaws because I'm sure the other bad reviews already did that, and yes, they're all right. If this game wasn't given to me, I wouldn't have brought it. So, I have to give a negative review here because it's the truth, unfortunately. And all of my reviews are honest.
I'm running around the house with a stupid ribbon in my hand for 15 minutes, being threatened by a small girl in my smartphone to give her the ribbon and have no idea what im supposed to do ... It looks bad, but its over 10 years old, so i guess thats fine. But there is no plot, no introduction to story or anything. There is no explanation what you are supposed to do ( i guess walk around the orphanage, why? No idea). There is no explanation how the controlls work - and who the F*** thought putting the command for taking items and interacting with stuff ON THE SAME MOUSE BUTTON??? I put down the stupid ribbon 5 times, just because i wanted to open a door and were one step out of reach. Ugh. The "jumpscares" or whatever mostly are on the WAY TO TINY smartphone in your hand. And.. if a game has a pause menu, that only says "Main Menu" and "Resume" you know how bad it is.
