The Horologist's Legacy

Environmental symbolism, surrealism and pseudoscience but weak in storytelling to make it more coherent to the audience. It has good graphics for another "Made In Unity" game as well as good music. The game play is largely play a record, find a key, push a button, etc. to trigger the next event. There are other events where you will need to find the right piano to play a tune (automatically play it so no challenge) or have to smash something. That's pretty much the mechanics of it. Do not expect too much in the horror aspect of the game. There is some but not too much. The complete game took me just over 3 hours to play and that's an asking price of 20 dollars. By the end of the game I wasn't blown away by the ending. They even repeated a lot of the dialogue at the end hoping to add clarity to the experience. I just wanted it to be over and done with. Your mileage may vary on this game. I would like to see another game by Cole and Jordan Studios as this was their first retail product and I'm sure they have learned from this experience so I am curious to see more in hopes it can be crafted to tell a better tale.

I'm usually not a fan of these types of games, but figured I'd take a chance with this one. I'm glad I did. Has some really interesting twists and turns and is very well made for an indie game. Definitely give it a try!

This was my first true horror game and it did not disappoint. Excellent atomosphere throughout the game with a story to keep you interested all the way until the end. Great graphics and great voice acting for these guys' first commercial game. Definitely would recommend!

The Horologist's legacy is a game I have been following before it's release through Cole and Jordan's Twitch streams where they streamed the making of it. I made friends with them, I bought the game at full price when it was released, and I was very pleased with how the game turned out. There were parts of it that were genuinely impressive and that caught me off-guard despite literally watching it being made. I have been told by one of the devs that they want a review that is genuine and unbiased so I will deliver just that. This game was shorter than expected indicative of my playtime. Some steam customers I know have a set rule on if a game is worth the money, if the price (in dollars) is 1:1 with the game length in hours or better then it is worth it. I personally don't agree with that rule because I wouldn't be willing to pay a dollar every hour I'm playing a game and if i were to value hours in dollars the price would very based on the enjoyment of each separate hour, but the ratio this game has can be a turnoff for people who use this rule. That being said, I don't think the price point Is that big of a problem. In my opinion, the devs underpriced the game relative to how m…

10 out of 10. Awesome game-play, story line and graphics. Beware of the Clocks!

for a horror game it definitely does the job, big scare and good death screen. very oily. a 7 outta 10
