May 2025
What makes Fears to Fathom so special is how real it feels. It doesnโ€™t rely on over-the-top horror or jump scares. it creeps in through the ordinary. Every story plays out like something you mightโ€™ve heard from a friend, or worse, experienced yourself. The characters, the pacing, the quiet moments of tension, they all feel unsettlingly human. Itโ€™s about what people are capable of. And thatโ€™s what makes it terrifying. Even the routine moments, grabbing a drink from the fridge, answering a text, walking down a hallway, feel good. Grounded. Familiar. Which only makes it worse when things go wrong. You can tell this isnโ€™t just a game. Itโ€™s a passion project, and that love and care is in every second.

These games are too spoopy. I just finished a play through of 'Firewatch', and this game was like that but terrifying. Jimmy or whatever that dunce rangers name is can suck an egg, he gave me the biggest scares of the episode. Would recommend.

This is arguably the best installment in the F2F by far. Hands down. It definitely borrowed inspiration from the short indie horror game, Do You Copy? and a bit of Firewatch, but with a large dash of the F2F charm. The progression of the horror and unsettling feeling throughout the story was fantastic. There were however a few odd "invisible walls" that prevent the player from exploring other possible options/decisions in certain situations, but they're only there to guide the player along the plot. Overall, this is Rayll Studios' magnum opus. HIGH recommend. 8.7/10
