As a big fan of MiSide I had to check other games by the same developer. It's clear that they were still dipping their toes and testing the waters with this one. Overall it's a decent horror walking simulator with puzzle elements. You'll spend your time in an ever-changing appartement. The game has an interesting concept, the environments are creepy, very dark, and the creature absolutely terrifying. But what really jumped out for me was the ace sound design. It recommends the use of headphones and I can DEFINTELY see why! The character model is quite ugly in my opinion, the lack of emotion during cutscenes doesn't help. I believe I grabbed it for 1 EUR on sale, I would NOT recommend the full price.

review good = very breedable protag 😸 good = cheap good = scery mixed = short mixed = a little odd bad = a little laggy bad = weird perspective bad = can't change graphics, brightness, etc. so yeah. i liked it, make what you want of this

disappeared, lost in the gloom that's really cool lol. dev make more games like this

Decided to explore a little more from the developers after playing MiSide, and this was a very pleasant experience. My main complaint is of slight motion sickness with the strange camera movement. Pros: -Great character models and animation. -Ambiance was stellar, not overly reliant on cheap jump scares. -Great soundtrack to keep tension. -Although the map was reused several times, they were able to keep it fresh every time you run through it. Cons: -Story isn't explained all that well, although it's not hard to predict you're left wondering why the game is even titled as it is. -Camera has the tendency to cause motion sickness (potentially just an issue for me). -Lighting levels. This game is dark, expect to have to turn your brightness up simply to know how to proceed. -A relatively short experience for it's price tag. Final Thoughts: This is a walking simulator, don't go in expecting a grand adventure. Overall I really enjoyed this game, I like the story at the atmosphere. The character models and animations really stood out to me, I'd recommend it simply for that reason. Very worth it to purchase it while it's on sale, if you're die hard for indie horror I'd even say it's wo…

It turns out the evil-looking cube was, in fact, evil.

Silent Hill vibes in terms of music and graphics, no combat and you can't die. Too much of the game is just orders to do things like "open the fridge" or "turn on the kettle" which takes no effort and is dull. Later on there are two puzzle elements that are decent and kinda save the game. There's also collectibles laying around, if you pick up all of them, you can access the "good" ending, but only after completing the game with the "bad" ending for some reason. And by "bad" ending, I mean a page of text that's simplistic but also weirdly disturbing.
