About The Call

The Call is an indie horror puzzle game that puts you in the place of a police officer in America. You respond to a domestic disturbance call which ends up being a trap that makes you go through some unpleasant experiences.

Use your service pistol to protect yourself from hostile atrocities, break wooden boards with your baton, solve some puzzles and you might escape this hell hole.

ABOUT THE GAME

  • The game can last up to 1-2 hours depending on how you play.
  • It contains minor jumpscares, enemies that chase you which can be killed using your pistol and some quality puzzles.
  • The game saves which Level you are on but does not save what Checkpoint you have reached on that Level. If you restart the game, you will start from the beginning of the saved level. Keep that in mind and try to complete this game in one sitting.

We do NOT take responsibility for any damages our product may cause you in any way.

Pros: it has a charming artstyle Cons: The puzzles are difficult with no since of direction, the achievements aren't any better try to figure out, the game softlocks itself very often and with the weird puzzles It was hard figuring out if my game was softlocked or just the puzzle being weird, plus the boss fight softlocks the game too and you have to restart a entire section just to try again, this game isnt very good.

"The Call" is a laughably badly made Unity kitbashed first person horror adventure, remarkably so bad it could be considered a contender for one of the worst games on Steam. And that's a big deal because the competition at the bottom is fierce. What do you do in the game? First person adventuring as a cop exploring a spooky house. The technical execution of this game is shallow and simplistic, just enough to tick the boxes required to get something (anything) published on Steam, rather than investing the huge amount of effort and budget needed to create a fully fledged, comprehensive, high quality product. This feels like a tech demo more than a full game. The graphics here are particularly awful, so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam. Quite an accomplishment. Even though the game looks pretty bad (and decent visuals are a minimum requirement for any game), we can be fairly sure this is not an asset flip. This is because the game assets look so bad, no self respecting asset creator would publish them. That's a fail. It's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a p…

Игра "The Call" - это захватывающий психологический хоррор, действие которого разворачивается в мрачном и изолированном отеле на острове. Сюжет, основанный на мифах Ктулху, держит в напряжении на протяжении всей игры, предлагая игроку разгадать тайну исчезновения семьи и столкнуться с кошмарными сущностями из потустороннего мира. Атмосфера безнадежности и надвигающейся угрозы создана мастерски благодаря детальному окружению, атмосферному звуковому дизайну и пугающим визуальным эффектам. Механика "ментальной проекции" позволяет игроку погружаться в воспоминания и взаимодействовать с прошлым, что добавляет глубины исследованию и помогает раскрыть загадки отеля. Хотя игра может показаться медленной в некоторых моментах, она вознаграждает терпеливых игроков захватывающей историей и несколькими концовками, зависящими от принятых решений. "The Call" - это не просто скример-фест, а продуманный хоррор, который заставляет задуматься о хрупкости человеческого разума перед лицом непознанного. Если вы любите атмосферные и психологические хорроры, то эта игра определенно стоит вашего внимания.
