The Forsaken Anthology: Obsession

The Forsaken Anthology: Obsession, developed and published by Austin Boggs, is a tightly focused psychological horror experience that centers on the destructive nature of desire and the slow unraveling of a person consumed by it. Rather than presenting a broad or complex narrative, the game narrows its attention to a single perspective and a confined setting, allowing it to explore its themes with an intimate and often uncomfortable intensity. It is the kind of horror that leans less on spectacle and more on emotional unease, gradually pulling the player into a story where the line between choice and compulsion becomes increasingly blurred. The story follows an ordinary individual whose life begins to fracture after forming a connection with a dark, otherworldly presence.

The narrative unfolds in a linear fashion, revealing its details through environmental cues, dialogue fragments, and scripted moments that slowly build a picture of psychological decline.

Spooky

What started off, a very nice looking, unusual and intriguing game, quickly turned into a performance issue mess with some serious performance issues, not just on Ultra but in general, my system runs anything currently available flawlessly so this shouldn't be happening. The random nature of the "walk around" (there is no sprint) and randomly click on things, hoping to progress the game or be greeted by the same voice loop of "you cant do anything with that etc." became tiring quickly, the puzzles (i actually managed to solve) made no logical sense and I ended up just randomly clicking things, again hoping for the best. Going back to the visuals, the game had some really nice lighting but at times was also a bit too dark. Sound was very limited and apart from the odd voice line, scream or sound effect there wasn't much to get excited about. The game may appeal to someone looking for a quick horror fix but even at the low price of £4 I would look elsewhere. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2283157929

Im not hungry enough to leave a review

The Forsaken Anthology: Obsession's voices are too quiet and cant be turned up which is kind of annoying to me as i can barely hear it and cant make it louder for stream either. Another gripe is that there is a lot of space in between you and what you need to interact with making it feel like you can't reach what you want to. Wasn't super scary. 6/10
