About LeftWay

Nampung found herself in a strange place. What is really happening?...

LeftWay is a horror adventure game with creepy mystery where you can’t guess what you are encountering.

The movement of the character is controlled by pressing direction buttons. Camera in the game is a still camera which switches to various angles according to the location that the character arrived.

The character will face unusual things and it seems like she is not in the world she used to be. The player must solve the puzzle in order to pass to the next scene.

Disappointing game. Puzzle design is at times incredibly unintuitive. Story is astonishingly simple, despite the game's mysterious atmosphere. Storytelling, while direct, lacks any real weight.

I liked the visuals, but the game didn't keep my interest enough to complete it. The main character and her running cycles are decent, I assume it's rotoscoped from different angles. The environments are atmospheric enough, despite not having all that much detail, overall it is consistent and good enough to look at. Sounds and music are servicable, nothing that greatly increased my immersion, but it didn't take me out of it completely. As for the quality and ambience, there are barely any sounds, reminds me of minimalistic rpg maker horror games. The gameplay is what turned me off completely, the puzzles are ok enough, but the clearly superior control scheme for this would've been a point n click, you end up kinda stumbling around, until you bump against an object you want to interact with, which while intuitive to notice, are not as easy to "navigate to" with messy perspective and interactive areas. You're moving in a "3d" space, that is not along a grid, and not a consistent camera angle in general. While a little annoying during puzzles, it has been an awful during chases, naturaly the enemy is not limited by your perception of playable area, so they take fastest route towards…

The game is short, tedious, and extremelly frustrating at times, but the word it describes the game the best is: boring. Puzzles are not creative at all, and sometimes the solutions make no sense, or you simply didnt explore an area it was not even clear you could go to. Characters are horrible, and even if there are only two they speak like Skyrim characters, and conversations are awkward and feels like they hate each other, even if thats not the case. The ending is so bad it does not make any part of the journey worth it (the game has 3 endings and every ending is worse than the previous).

Eerie game with unique art-style, though a bit simplistic in nature and short-lived. Bulk of the gameplay focuses on exploration with occasional creative puzzles. The game manages to create creepy atmosphere with well-chosen fixed camera angles, some creepy imagery and utter silence broken by stomping of the main character. The one, short lived enemy encounter where you have to run away does add nice rush of tension, though unfortunately it does get a bit frustrating due to the enemy's erratic pattern. The story is largely unengaging due to its simplicity, lack of development and barely defined characters. There are three endings and none of them impresses. However, the biggest problem is the asking price. The game can be completed in two hours and a half while going for all achievements (it took me two playthroughs, though you could probably cut it two one if you saved before the point of no return). It's just too pricey. I enjoyed the game overall and do recommend it, but wait for a sale. 6/10

Really wanted to like this game. I really tried. But the story was so infuriating. The game really feels like it's going for one angle but half way through it throws an 180 and chooses the most cliche twist and don't get me started on the "true" ending. There's also no sound for the first half of the game except for crickets and it was driving me mad. But the thing that kills the game for me is a chase scene found in the middle of the game. It is so poorly programmed and designed that it feels like luck that you actually managed to get through it. I'm sure half my play time was spent on that part alone. It also did not fit with the rest of the game. It was really annoying and really pointless. The only up is the atmosphere and the art. But that's not enough to save this game sadly.
