"Shrieking Darkness" is a low key asset flip, a bunch of other people's assets assembled badly to make a basic game, typically this kind of thing is done by amateur developers without sufficient budget, talent and/or staff to do the job of game development professionally. It's then quickly rushed into Steam Direct. And, unsurprisingly, this never results in a product with any quality, interest, or value for gamers. This is yet another badly made asset flipped kitbashed first person horror adventure... yawn. This is considered one of the worst on Steam by reviewers, but I have seen much worse. The developer apparently had a tantrum and pulled it from Steam and is trying to sell this for money elsewhere... trying to get YOUR money for someone else's game assets. Never okay. Taking this seriously as a game, it's a plodding, incomplete, unpolished bug riddled mess where you explore a spooky house. Can't get any less original than that!

The game feels like it was made by an alien who received a brief description of horror. This game is plagued with bugs and technical issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kgpay0EYuAE&t=4s
