Ossuary is a unique, atmospheric experience centered around exploration and dialogue rather than traditional gameplay, with players praising its clever puzzles, thought-provoking philosophical concepts, and distinctly weird world filled with interesting ideas and humor. The main criticism is that it's light on actual gameplay and mechanics, making it feel more like an interactive narrative or philosophical exploration than a traditional game, and some feel the price is steep for the relatively short experience.
One of a kind. Clever light puzzles, superb atmosphere and lots of good dialogues, almost text-based; overall, most of the game is "optional" but I've found myself wanting to uncover more and more. The setting and objectives are pretty straightforward and almost the whole map is open since the start, so it's more of a morbid curiosity about the strange ideas and the hypocrisy that populate this tiny world, other than progressing a plot. It's about the journey. If you're willing to play something different and make use of sins as a game mechanic: 100% recommended.2 found this helpful
Clearly recommended. Quite a fun little game. I really like the ideas of these devs and I'd like to see more from them. They make weird conceptual games, don't read too much about it, just try it.2 found this helpful
Very enjoyable, tickles my pineal gland in all the right ways. Why did the chaotic magician decide to work at the ossuary? Because he had a knack for raising a real "skeleton crew"! This joke was brought to you by GPT-4
a strange walk-and-talk rpg game about discordianism. did i fully understand the game? nope. did i enjoy the experience? yeah!
Ossuary is a short but interesting little game that, while the gameplay is rather simple and text-based overall, manages to convey a fascinating world with thought-provoking concepts to keep players engaged. I will say that I was introduced to this game by someone who thought it'd be fun to speedrun, and so far it is, as categories for it are pretty short if you don't want to dedicate time to trying to do a full run of the game. In essence, if you want to try out an interesting little "horror" experience, I'd recommend giving Ossuary a try.
Developed by Melissa & Gregory Avery-Weir, Ossuary is not much of a game, don't expect too much gameplay from it. It’s more like an interactive dive into the depths of Discordianism, a weird and interesting experience mixing philosophy and religion with some fun lines ! A bit expensive though.
