Whispering Lane: Horror

Was a weird game. Just not my cup of tea. Likely more enjoyable for others however not me. Jumpscares were interesting.

I received a free key for this game through Keymailer, but this review is my honest opinion. I really wanted to finish the game, but I ended up getting frustrated and stuck before I could. That’s probably partly a me problem too, because I may have just needed to be more patient and figure out what I was missing. There were quite a few things I really liked about the game. I liked that the notes you find are actually read to you instead of making you stop and read everything yourself. The game also has a lot of achievements which I really liked to see. I actually did get jumpscared as well. The sounds and noises throughout the game also did a good job of keeping me on edge. Since this is a one-person studio, I wanted to mention a few things that I think could help improve the game. None of these are meant negatively, just things I noticed while playing: • Some of the voice/dialogue wording could use a little proofreading. For example, early on there is a line where the cop says “I understood,” but in the context of the conversation I think “I understand” would make more sense. • At the beginning, there is also some wording that made me think I had the option to turn back instea…

fix the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ achievements brother is not that hard get the job done

I got this as a steam key from keymailer. I was very excited to play because I heard that the dev created a good game with the apartment 1406 but as much as I wanted to like this game and i think it does have potential, it is not my favorite. I had my chat chose the mode we would play, they chose nightmare, so that is what I played. However, the mode didnt seem nightmarish. To me it was more in normal mode than nightmare. I did not feel like I was turning every corner scared or getting anxiety opening a door. Like i previously stated it does have potential but it seem like it is not focused and is just all over the place. At this moment it is not a game i would recommend, however maybe in the future. I will also remark that I was told to still try out Apartment 1406 which is what i will be doing.

Quick Summary: A Horror game that made me feel like I was scammed and ended up playing something that was lined in excrement (Literally) for the 1.5 hours of game time. Horrible hit detection, poor asset flip reuse, a non-sensical story, and you can tell they thought they were clever, and even though it's made by a one man dev. I've seen better and played better from others. Just don't. -See Below for Deeper Review- Gameplay: A FPS Horror, with a light combat system. You'll move from point A to B shuffled along finding random melee weapons that all seem to do the same hit damage, if you can even tell you're hitting anything, and a few ranged weapons that again make it seem like you're shooting peas at a enemy. Mix that with while it's hard to tell if you're hitting, it's sometimes hard to tell if you've been hit. The game just struggles. If it was a walking simulator and the combat was dropped it may have been a better received game, but as it is, it's a poor execution in gameplay. Storyline: A streamer goes missing while exploring a haunted house and as the only cop left not at a riot you're sent in to investigate. Yet, it's all poorly done again. The streamer segm…
