They Can Hear Us

The game overall was ok but the first puzzle was confusing for me where you had to place 5 things in a circle so I had to cheat lol. A lot of the story is told through notes and you have to read them if you want to beat the game because at the end you have to choose the correct magical creature. More could of been done with the microphone mechanic in my opinion since it isn't used a lot. The last part was kinda goofy though cause you have to be quiet and avoid a gnome so it doesn't get you despite the fact you could probably kick it around like a soccer ball. The game is very short if you know what you are doing and the ending is very sudden since once you choose the correct magical creature you get a brief description of what happened and the game ends The game has a good soundtrack but like I said before its very short 20 mins or less if you know what you are doing but overall in my opinion it was ok for short horror game full walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPPl83UWhCc

Incredibly short, with some obtuse puzzles (The first I had no idea you had to [spoiler]Backtrack the exact way you came, to do a smaller puzzle to get the solution to the gate puzzle[/spoiler]. And the second with the buttons, I had no idea the clues were spread all over the place.) The walking speed was SUPER slow. Annoyingly so. I enjoyed it for what it was, but I feel the mic interactivity was more tacked on and not central to the core gameplay. Other than using the mic to literally respond to Anna, there was no reason to make any noise at all, thus negating an entire 'danger' in the final sequence. In future episodes, I really hope the mic takes more center stage, as that is what I expected from this one. Still, not a terrible game, just needs work.

The initial phase of the game has a noticeably slow pace. A significant portion of the walking segment at the beginning could be eliminated, or additional content could be incorporated to enhance that section. The musical score and other background effects are exceptional. Initially, I encountered some confusion regarding the push-to-talk feature employed for interaction with the NPC counterpart. Overall, I found the game to be of high quality and worth the investment. Here is my impression https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIvPOoOWKa4&t=984s

Didnt get too far with this one. The puzzles were oop for me. The walk speed at the beginning is molasses slow. Quite the choice. I think the game would do well with some voice overs since a story is bein' told here. The game did recognize what I was sayin' when it came to callin' out for Anna. Doesn't hurt to check it out with the price tag on offer. I'll middle thumb it. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/FLhCErAN8cE
