Public Fears - George's Farm

[[[[ NO SPOILERS ]]]] Video Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzdtAAM5cWE So I gave this latest FEARS TO FATHOM style inspired game over 40 mins to get to the scares and it never did. Then I somehow fell off the road while trying to turn around? This game's mechanics are mostly fine, but it forgot to be remotely scary. I get that you have to invest a little time with a character to flesh them out and make the viewer care, but 40 minutes to not even reach George's Farm is asking a bit too much. There's good stuff here, just not enough to save this from a negative review and refund request. 3/10 For other FEARS TO FATHOM Style games go here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQTmUby5Dx3i00k2G_j7qILaINagnRUbv PS - On top of all of that I got my video demonetized for the music in the diner 🤣 PSS - YouTube has now found copyright protected music for a FOURTH time 😭

Game is hot cheeks and not in a fun, Friday night kind of way. I don't mind the slow burn type of game, but this one was full of pandering, useless dialogue, and locations that have you go there just to go there. I didn't even finish it because the hitchhiker part killed me, which I didn't mind, but the checkpoint is non existent or broken, and I was NOT about to restart the game all over again to get to it again. I usually don't refund games, but I felt a little ripped off from this one, so I did.

This game is what I would call an indie dev torture sim since the dev implemented so many bad mechanics it feels like you being waterboarded by the CIA or something since this game is so bad. To list things off without rambling too much, the game speed limits your car during the long drives (the long drives take up like 80% of the game), the retry button after you pick up the stranger and get shot by him takes you to the store page instead of restarting the game so you have to play everything all over again, you have to hold e for like a min each on each food item to eat it, you can only pick up 1 item each for the fish in the pan dish with constant walking back in forth, you can't run, and finally the amount of padding in the game is insane with the only horror part of the game taking place at the end and the game ends abruptly with u gunning down the deepstate hitman. please don't buy this game https://youtu.be/J8H2jmyuxfU

Ugh, I think I’m done buying games that are similar to *Fears to Fathom*. It’s just too much. I don’t mind a slow-paced game, but this one is way too slow in every aspect and the pacing drags on endlessly. Why on earth do they make you drive so much? It felt like more than half the game was just driving, while the rest was nothing but eating or walking around doing trivial chores. The cooking part in the kitchen made no sense, either. They could have just given you a basket to carry all the ingredients at once—what were they thinking, making you go back and forth to the garden like that? And the final battle... good grief, it took forever to figure out what to do, and it was incredibly frustrating.

I Really Enjoyed The Game, This Actually Is My Favorite Style Of Game. A Horror Game Where You Can Interact With NPCs And Extract Info. There Is Some Obvious Jankiness To It (The Try Again Button Works Only When It Wants To, You Couldn't Stop The Car, And You Missed Your Turn!). If You Get Passed That Though, I Think It's Worth Your While. My Gameplay: https://youtu.be/P0bNVdHq8Ls
