MASAGORO

I hate to leave a poor review on an indie game, but honestly this game just kinda sucks. The English translation is the worst i've seen in along time, couldn't make any sense of most of it, and all the story is told via notes/text so gg there. The audio/atmosphere is like none existent as well, and when it is present unfortunately it's hilariously bad screams and no music ect, gameplay is literally just find key to kitchen for example, which the map isn't translated so it's basically useless, then find x key in the next room ect, the only real mechanic in the game, like you can't even sprint or crouch/hide ect it's a two button game, is that you can hold your breath and it's wonky af, got frustrated with it immediately. Masagoro also has no real settings other than "low" or "epic" presets so you can't turn off the blur ect, changing res seems to have no effect, low fps cap... usually i'd just suffer through the 2 hours so I could at least finish the game but I just can't be bothered with this. Not worth, avoid. 1/10

Really tense and creepy atmosphere. The lack of music makes the atmosphere much more unsettling. However, it seemed to focus more on fake-out scares than actual scares. And the dialogue and text were sometimes hard to comprehend because of the way it was translated. I played better horror games, but that doesn't mean that this wasted my time. I wished it had more variety. But if you're the kind of person that likes a quick horror game that delivers on the atmosphere and ambiance then this might be for you.

Quite good horror game.

Bruh. This "game"...

If you enjoyed Project Zero / Fatal Frame game series, Japanese folklore horror or Chilla's Art games then this game is for your. - The atmosphere and ambience of the game is spine tinglingly chilly. - The sounds will cause increasingly more goosebumps to appear on your arms and neck areas. If you play in a room, with the lights off and THX headphones on, like I do... then you will most certainly have the urge to look back over your shoulder now and then, just to be sure nothing is watching over you...as you explore this dilapidated creepy Japanese inn. If any of the above entices you, then I implore you to buy this game and support the developer. It is most definitely worth the money. oooOOOOHHhhhh what was that in the corner of my eye....nothing....I am sure it was nothing.....

Sound and Atmosphere > Good Scares > Bad Play it more for the mystery than the scare. 6/10
