About The Visitor

Summary


'The Visitor' is a singleplayer first-person phycological-horror game where you play as an author who suffers from a mental illness. She has procrastinated on completing her book and won't get paid until she finishes it. Unfortunately for her, not only is she running out of money, she is also running out of her medication. There are chapters that you are expected to redo in order to get paid. Her medication had allowed her to stay up until a normal time until she felt tired and had to sleep, as her medication drains she has become exhausted far more quickly. This leads to her sleeping more than usual which, since your are almost out of medication and your deadline for your book is closing in, is not a good thing! Since her medication is low you will experience noises, and visions that you normally wouldn't. Are they real? Who knows. Complete the chapters and get paid in order to return to living your average life.

The Game's graphics are pretty good but it gets very frustrated when you have repeat "typing" chapters that go on for ages. luckily if you don't listen to the background noises a silly clown creeps up from behind and takes your ass I was not prepared for that during my first play through other then that its not a terrible game I've seen worst. not sure why but for some reason in the system requirements they say the game needs about 5GB of storage but when I added this game to my Library it was suddenly needed 22GB of Storage maybe its outdated stats or I'm drunk 🤷‍♂️
