The Midnight Bus

This free game is another entry into the psychological horror genre, and it does deliver. It was immersive enough that I actually got goosebumps a few times, and got downright panicked when I couldn't move. It is from some indie devs, done in first-person view, and uses a couple of A.I. voices. Unfortunately, the A.I. voices are robotic enough to ruin the immersiveness a little. You play as an unnamed protagonist, and have just finished working a double-shift at your job. You are extremely tired as you board the midnight bus for a ride home. You fall asleep for about 90 minutes, then wake up to find you are the only person on the bus, and it is snowing heavily outside. I'm not sure if the bus had a minor crash, broke down, or just got stuck in the snow. Even the driver is missing. The front passenger door is open, you are freezing, and the radio does not seem to have a signal. All you can get is static. As you wonder where everybody else has gone, and contemplate what you are going to do now, you discover that you are not alone in this snowstorm. Something is lurking around the outside of the bus, and it wants inside. It. Wants. You. As can be common with this kind o…

good

Well get past the first text and yawn. Click finish and the game crashed with fatal error every time

It manages to run poorly on my RIG; I don't think there's much else to say. I managed to get all the achievements despite one being bugged; I had to replay this -thing- 3 times. Fortunately, it lasts no longer than 15 minutes... which is more than enough to enjoy AI slop voices and poorly used assets bought somewhere not defined. Incipit is not great either and cliches are all over the place. Welp, it's free.
