Shieven

I took one look at this game and knew it was a bit of me. Finally a game that doesn't solely rely on jump scares. Building tension and atmosphere in an environment that doesn't hand-hold you all the way. Puzzles are challenging and, although frustrating at times, make you feel great when you finish them! I can't wait to play more of this, and I've already paid in to the kickstarter for Shieven 2, as this is the type of game we SHOULD be backing, not the recent AAA rubbish that's out there for over six times the price! Well worth the price for anyone that enjoys a truly immsersive horror game.

It's an all right little horror puzzle game. Performance is a bit lacking though.

Shieven succeeds in SO many ways! This is the dev's first game which I find SO impressive! The atmosphere (especially around THOSE experiments), the creature design, the puzzles, and how the game looks are all wins. There is plenty of lore to pick up to discover the story as the game unfolds. The puzzles are challenging and rewarding and the jump scares were nicely placed and fun as well. However, where the game TRULY shines is in the chase sequences. There is JUST enough time to escape the danger you are in, and it creates such an amazing and terrifying sense of urgency and horror. I do want to note that there is an epileptic mode, which is amazing! We love dev’s who include accessibility settings! There was one puzzle that made me think harder than I am usually capable of, and I somehow brute forced it instead solving it. There was an area at the end of the game where the main character was consistently clipping through wall- but neither of these things were overwhelmingly distracting or insurmountable. Even if this was not the dev's first game, I would give it a positive review. I beat the game in roughly 2.5 hours, which is great as person who creates Indie Horror conte…

Good game, the music and sound effects make the atmosphere creepy. Good game who likes exploring and quests

Played and completed the first chapter, and it was definitely alot of fun! I liked the mascot horror feel without the mascot. The puzzles were a good balance of fun and challenging, and the environment was eery and definitely had a creepy vibe. The music added to the ambiance and I look forward to the next chapter when it comes out!

I went into this game without knowing what to expect and I was pleasantly surprised! The game has atmosphere, jump scares and chase scenes. Cant get better than that and the dev is awesome and always looking to improve. Grab this one, you wont be disappointed!!
