About Paranormal Activity: The Lost Soul
AVAILABLE TO PLAY IN NON-VR (KEYBOARD/MOUSE AND CONTROLLER) VR HEADSET NOT REQUIRED TO PLAY.
This original story, based on the mythology of the massively popular PARANORMAL ACTIVITY film franchise, features our proprietary scare engine allowing a different experience every time you dare to play.
Armed with a battery hungry flashlight, you find yourself exploring what appears to be a quiet average looking home in a woodsy neighborhood. Before long, you discover you’re not alone as you discover the clues unraveling the horrifying mystery of what’s gone on in this house and struggle to survive the terror that hunts you.
For an even more terrifying experience, switch to the highly popular VR Mode which immerses you in the environment using minimum Room Scale combined with our Immersive Movement Role-play System (IMRS). After the tutorial, you're on your own. Zero onscreen directions or HUD in your face, you’re never taken out of the immersion.
PLAYABLE IN NON-VR (KEYBOARD/MOUSE AND CONTROLLER) VR HEADSET NO LONGER REQUIRED.
GAMEPLAY LENGTH:
Gameplay length will vary on gameplay style. There are no Quicktime events in this game and its up to the player to discover and unravel the story. Its pretty much an open world in the house, so explore where you can. Completionist can be in this game for many many hours. Standard playtime will still be hours unless you knew exactly where every item was. So please don't share the location of items and ruin it for others. We will include some randomization of the in the future to make it more difficult.
FEATURES:
Survival: With limited tools, you must run and hide or out smart your enemy. Good luck.
Random moments of terror means you never know when a haunting will strike, you must be alert at all times. Our proprietary Scare Randomizer system will create random scares beyond story moments. This means you never know when a scare is going to happen. This is like a real haunted house. sometimes there a bunch of scares and others times maybe very little or nothing at all. There is tremendous terror in the unknown. keep yours eyes open at all times, and be sure to wear headphones, the sound alone will make you crap your pants.

The idea is half decent and it's actually pretty scary, however in VR (I used quest 3) I had to HOLD DOWN the button to move instead of just pushing it forward which is incredibly annoying, in desktop mode you can only move in 1 direction at a time , you can't move forward and left, you have to go either forward or left, plus desktop mode is a bad port
Amazing experience. It's so immersive and scary, that it made me find out just how much of a p***y I actually am.
I was thinking a long time if I would give positive or negative review, i think its somewhere in the middle. I would definitelly not recommend this game for the full price, the story is short and counts on the longer progress, since there is really very easy to miss things that the game need you to do, since its heavily scripted that way, i was lost for long time with these things. On the other way if u forgive all of these things then u can actually make alternate ending or just enjoy the main story, which is not masterpiece, but i think this game is especially made for being scary in VR and i think it can be in non-VR too. I wanted to play it as a fan of the Paranormal Activity movie, but i didnt found a lot in common, excluding the same house really. Thankfully this VR game have non VR mode, but on the other hand controls are still like in VR mode, so it's not comfortable really.
it was fun
thought this game was ok when it first came out, apart from blurry graphics, couldn't adjust the resolution through steam or in game. Its now 2026 and I thought I give it a go using ALVR to make it look better, unfortunately I'm on the quest 3, nothing works right, half in the floor and hands keep freezing or just straight up disappearing, unplayable, so its a thumbs down from me then.
Short and sweet! VR version ran flawlessly and looked great. Fun, short, scary experience. Enjoyed it
