Welcome to Doll Town

I saw a funny YouTube Short about this game, and the combat and pro wrestling moves are WHY I wanted to try this at all, especially with a little school girl doing them. THAT was what sparked my interest. I bought and downloaded the game, only to find the controls so janky on the menu, that I tried the usual "disable/enable/default" Steam Input settings, but nothing fully worked. I found that the PS5 Dualsense controller uses an analog stick like it's a mouse pointer, and R2 is "left click". So I start the game and find that the O button is interact and X is cancel, like how a lot of Japanese games typically map their accept and cancel buttons and reverse them in Western versions of their games. (O is for "yes" or "okay" in Japanese culture, and X, as in cross, is for no.) The game allows me to move around with the left analog stick. The turning for the camera is done with right analog stick, but at the default sensitivity at 2.0, I lowered it to 0.5, and it was still jarring, just looking up, down, and turning with that awful camera view and super close FOV. The L2 button is for blocking and it seems to "lock on", sort of. SOMETIMES, I feel like I can hit R2 to attack, but only d…

Just finished the full release. I'm real late to the party (especially considering I bought dlc to help back the game), but I want to give some honest feedback. The game needs more to make it feel like a full experience. I know there is an announcement to address most issues I had (bugs, more enemies and bosses), but one of the biggest ones I have still is the story. Our protagonist serves more as a vehicle for the plot then actually moving it along. If she could have more agency and purpose it would make things much better. Also the fact that the choices at the end of the game don't change the ending (Reina). I want to enjoy this game more as I see the vision and potential, but at this point in time it left me feeling more disappointed than anything. Once the update is finished I will try it again, but for now I can't recommend playing.

Soo...i seen the first clips of this game back in 2023 and got already hooked! Its understandable that a solo dev took 3 years to create this. i was originally waiting till most of the bugs get fixed to play this but now i wish i played it sooner! i really dont get the hate of this game. I really enjoyed it, it's worth the money. You have to count in its a unique game and made from one small dev. It's already impressive that it only took 3 years to make! and honestly..asking for 12.79€ is not much. There's a lot of short games out there that offer a lot less, terrible story and not any original story with the same price. A unique Story about the fathers love and love between two lesbians who weren't accepted in the society. Not to think of that Mio is a doll now, getting bullied for that as well even though her original death made the father obsessed getting his daughter back as a living doll, she didn't choose this life. He lost two important people in his life that he just couldn't cope with the death of Mio. Since the town has the sad secret about Mio and Tsumugi. the sad tragedy of Mio's and Tsumugis death; Mio driven to $uicid3 from the bullies, the principal, and Tsumug…

Welcome to Doll Town is a survival horror adventure developed and published by Bad Wish Games that embraces the unsettling charm of classic horror while introducing its own eerie identity. Set in a seemingly abandoned town where innocent-looking dolls have become terrifying threats, the game immediately establishes an atmosphere of mystery and unease. Instead of relying solely on loud scares, it gradually builds psychological tension through environmental storytelling, unsettling encounters, and the constant feeling that something is watching from the shadows. The result is a horror experience that focuses as much on anticipation as it does on direct confrontation. Exploration forms the backbone of the gameplay, encouraging players to search every corner of the cursed town for clues, useful items, and hidden secrets. Buildings, streets, and forgotten interiors each contribute pieces to the larger narrative, revealing fragments of the tragic events that transformed the community into a nightmare. The world feels carefully designed to reward curiosity, making every detour worthwhile while maintaining a lingering sense of danger. The narrative unfolds naturally through discovered doc…

I sure did brother it up. brother

Came for the creepy aesthetic, stayed for the story. It's very short and undeniably rough around the edges...a true passion project. Yet, I found myself completely invested. The atmosphere, music, and emotional twists caught me off guard. If you can overlook the imperfections, I think it's worth a playthrough. It would make a great mini series. Hopefully there's an update or dlc soon!
