Really good horror game. It has the exact length one person needs when looking for a horror game to pass their time. The monsters were detailed the house was filled with no empty rooms and the overall experience was nice. I didn't like how bland the walking through the hallways feels though... You could add some shadows in the 4 corners of the screen to make the person feel like this is a nightmare. I had a wonderful time though. Thanks for making my afternoon !

I’m genuinely impressed that this is your first game as a developer. The puzzles were engaging, the suspense was tangible, and the atmosphere was effective without relying on unnecessary distractions. The focus on game-play quality really stood out. The jump scares landed well, and the creature design was solid. Some puzzles took a bit of extra time to work through, but nothing ever felt unfair or overly complicated. We especially liked the use of cameras. It was a clever and creative mechanic. The re-spawn feature, paired with the dream-themed message, added an interesting layer to the experience. The overall concept felt fresh and original, and we appreciated that the enemy behavior focused more on flashing and disorienting rather than the usual frantic chase and kill approach. It made the tension feel psychological rather than purely survival based. Our only significant issue came with the garage puzzle involving the shelf maze. Even with our device volume set quite low, the audio during that section was overwhelming. The music and sound effects felt excessively loud, almost as if the speakers were pushed into the red. It crossed from being atmospherically intense into being p…

Actually really like this. i love horror games that rely mpore on atmosphere than monsters and i fell like this game does exactly that. The house keeps chainging around you and while there is a monster i didn't feel like that has the focus. That being said, i did get stuck towards the end because i wasn't able to find a key and the game didn't give any additional clues. Still think it's worth giving a try though! :D

This was really fun. I was looking for a shorter atmospheric experience and this was great. This game gave my son and I the creeps and chills while playing. The puzzles were good, but the atmosphere is really where it's at with this one.
