Complete Review
Here's a thorough review after playing the first 12% (I think the first 3 chapters?)
This game is pretty decent for a free, long game. The graphics are alright, but I don't expect groundbreaking stuff here. The puzzles are well made, the story is good so far, and it's a blast to play online. The controls are nice, and there's even some mechanics I haven't seen in other horror games before.
Sadly, that's about the best stuff I can say about this game. Keep in mind, this is the very first version right now, and it will get better.
First, the game is confusing at first. I played the tutorial, and it was all fine until I got into story mode. There's a key on a table, and it explains how the backpack system works. I assumed the key is for the only other door in the room, but apparently not! This had me stumped for literally like an hour, and I restarted the game multiple times to see if I could figure out what to do. Apparently you have to go back to the lobby, but the lobby looked like a menu, so I assumed you wouldn't need to go back to it for story mode. Very confusing for a first objective.
A lot of the missions from there are fetch quests, not gonna lie. It makes you run around getting items and bringing them places, sometimes has you searching for things. Not to mention how almost every room has to load. I know it's just for optimizations, but it doesn't help when the missions almost always have you go room to room. Heck, even one of them has you search around various rooms to find 5 drawings. That took me a while to find, especially because of all the loading. I would comment on the story, but I don't think I've experienced enough to definitively review that aspect.
When it comes down to it, the only worst things is how confusing it is and all the loading. Other than that, this game has a lot of potential. I really believe this game could be big in the future with more polishing and elbow grease.
Final thoughts:
If you're in this for horror, I really don't necessarily reccomend. A lot of it is cheap. Sometimes they try to scare you with random laughing or screaming, and it's really nothing. Plus, the only "jumpscare" I've gotten was a girl in a dress moving slowly toward you. Doesn't even kill you so idk what that's about. I recommend it however, if you're into light horror games. For instance, you like getting scared, but you don't want to be unable to sleep that night.
Overall, I'd say decent enough game to install. Even if you're not big on the horror aspect, there's some mini games without horror. I really could see this being a really good game in the future, but for now, 4/5 stars. Pleased enough.
