About Motel Murder

Your sister calls you for help. You go to the Motel where she's staying at only to find horror, Mannequins have come to life and are killing! Using the knife you find, you search for answers to find your sister before it's too late. Welcome to Motel Murder.

Story



* Story written by NG Smith, you explore the area of Motel Murder. Go through different Motel rooms, the big House on the hill, and through the woods to find dark secrets. You arrive at the Motel only to find horror. You find a knife and use it as your defense against the Mannequins, whom came to life from "The Man in the Mask", and find your sister before it is all too late.

Arcade



*Besides Story mode, is a unique Arcade mode where you fight off against 30 waves of Mannequins, some you'll have to find. As you progress further in you'll have different weapons to help make the killings more satisfying starting off with the Knife, then to a Fire Axe and for the grand finale you'll tear through the waves with ease with a groovy Chainsaw! Every 5th wave you face the boss, "The Man in the Mask". Tips are provided before you start the mode, remember them to survive! Can you beat the Arcade Mode?

Music Score



*NG Smith providing the music score once again in this intense horror FPS inspired by great classic horror movies.

Controls



*Grim Grave Arcade is about fun and simplicity for anyone at any level to play and enjoy without the complexity. Less is more and Simple Controls as NG Smith says, is one less thing to be distracted from the game itself. You can play with Keyboard and Mouse or with a Controller. 3 Action buttons and a Pause button is all you need to try and survive this intense horror game.

Only The Beginning



*Motel Murder is only the beginning, as this story will continue with a more intense story in sequel video games to come . A story that will expand and explain more with in depth background of what's really going on. Welcome to Motel Murder.

A contender for the worst game of 2020. This game is broken and boring beyond belief. Every new indie horror game on Steam just seems to keep setting the bar lower and lower. It does make one wonder just how low the bar can go at this point.

I have finished this game three times and it was super fun. It is perhaps the best indie-game i have ever played. However is it possible to have a permadeath mode where there is no checkpoints and you have to start over. This would add to the frustration when you die, which i love. Great game, recommend it.

I just got finishing reading a negative review for this game by someone who will go unmentioned (Droogie4Ever) not to put anyone on the spot or anything but personally I was appalled that someone could slander my personal favorite horror game Motel Murder. Just as the title advertises it has motels... and buddy if you think murder isn't on the agenda tonight oh boy... you've got another thing coming, Jack. No, indeed there is a murder at this motel (I don't want to spoil anything so I won't but TRUST me when I say that this is the case) and also while I'm thinking about it if you're looking for a spooky scare or two... lets just say... yeah. That too ;) There are a lot of games on steam you could be playing right now. Witcher 3 or perhaps Hunni Pop to name two, but trust me again when I say there are hundreds if not up to 500 games on Steam. Maybe more even! This is also a game, but unlike those other two games that I mentioned this game FREAKING rules. It's got motels. Actually only one motel but you get what I'm saying. It's got murder. I already mentioned that previously but it bears repeating as it is a theme central to the plot of this game. And hey! While we are on the topic …

Yeah, it's a huge no for me. The game lacks content and feels boring as all hell. You go around and kill some mannequins. That's it. I have no clue why someone left this excuse of a game a positive review. I'm pretty sure they were paid to do so. Plus, calling out someone for a review and then trying to make it seem like they're bad for even having a negative review is EXTREMELY low. As for the game itself, it's excruciating to play. I can't even begin to describe this train wreck of a game. You kill 20 mannequins at a motel that randomly spawn in rooms. Every few kills or so and you get to defeat a "boss" which is just some dude in a mask that can take a few hits. The game is bugged BEYOND BELIEF. You die easily because you walk from room to room killing mannequins that appear out of nowhere. There's no directions on what you should be doing besides killing and finding notes. Bonus note, do NOT play this game if you get motion sickness easily. This game is like driving in a car on a bumpy highway. The graphics are AWFUL, not to mention the writing on the sides of the buildings. There's literally nothing scary about this game. It's a 0/10 for me.
