About Nyctophobia
Nyctophobia is a psychological horror experience that traps you in the quiet night shift of a roadside motel… where something feels terribly wrong.You play as a motel receptionist working alone for three nights. Guests come and go, each with their own strange behavior, but the real danger begins when the lights go out.Because when the darkness takes over… you’re not alone anymore.
Some seem normal… others feel off.
You’re not sure if it’s real… or if your mind is breaking.
Dialogue

Some of the dialogue is better than other indie horror games, but a lot of it (especially the section with the grandparents) feels super drawn out. It got to the point where I was like "ALL RIGHT, MOVE ON NOW!" Because they kept talking and talking and talking.

This one isn't particularly bad, while I do think its too fast especially for people who didn't play the demo, it's fine. Then we get to the part of the game where a…
