Game is legitimately so scary I couldn't finish it. I've watched a couple YouTube playthroughs but this game still triggers all my fears so well that I can't handle it without commentary or someone helping me through it lmao. This game comes at you with the sole purpose to make you terrified, and it more than succeeds. Huge props to the dev for making such an incredible experience.

Never ever have I covered my eyes in a horror game before but this one did the job. Game is too scary. Goosebumps = 4 times Hotel = Trivago Jerk = off

I think this game is pretty nice, but overall very short, and I think it becomes less creepy the more you play it. I was definitely pretty freaked out at the beginning, I think it did a really good job of establishing a scary atmosphere. But, the farther I went, the less scared I felt, but overall it was a pretty nice time, I think. Though, I will also say, I recommend getting the game on sale, because its full price kind of feels like a lot to ask for what you get. The dragons in this game get a rating of 0/10, because there are no dragons.

Very unique, didn't rely on jumpscares and cheesy typical moments like vastly seen in movies and other games. Really great design in the entire environment and characters. Not a long game, but not short by any means and really every moment leaves you uneasy and looking forward to, and dreading, the next bit. This was recommended by many and I fully agree this is a worthwhile game to play.

This game, without a doubt, was one of the highest quality horror games I've ever played on steam. It's graphics are stunning which adds to the scariness, the jump scares are highly effective, and the atmosphere made me look around my room every so often. Absolutely amazing. 10/10.

the static speaks my name A dark/sad/weird/funny first person exploration game. You play a man on his last night alive as he obsesses over a mysterious painting. More of a story game in that it emphasizes mood and character over gameplay. Takes ten minutes to play and has "next-gen" features like a shrimp tank.
