April 2025
⭐ 7.5/10 Graveyard Shift is the perfect little Halloween-themed game for when you’re looking for something quick, atmospheric, and just the right amount of creepy. It’s a fast playthrough, but it packs in enough atmosphere to make you feel like you’re really in the middle of a spooky night shift at a graveyard. The game has that chilly Halloween vibe, with eerie sounds and some nice visuals that really set the mood. It’s not long, but it’s enjoyable for what it is — an easy, fun, and spooky experience that doesn’t overstay its welcome.

Bought it within a 65% discount and for this price it's really worthy. Took me around two hours to fully complete the game, but if you'll rush through you can probably finish it in 1-1/2hrs. The graphics really surprised me for looking this good, so I spended a 'lil time taking some pretty shots, too. 'Graveyard Shift' was not that scary , but at least got me two times with some really mean placed jumpscares..^^ Well, let's be honest- it's not well optimized and runs a bit unstable. Also some FPS drops occourred, but really..who cares about FPS in this game. So, I would say: Round about, 'Graveyard Shift' was a pretty solid game for it's discount, but I wouldn't buy it in full price cause it's really too short for that.

Graveyard Shift is a great experience, even though it's only about an hour long, everything is incredibly well put together. I was surprised to see its overall rating at 75% as of March 5th, 2025. The scare factor is definitely there, and while the optimization could be better, it doesn’t take away from the overall experience. If you're looking for a quick but intense scare, this game is top-notch. You don’t need to look anywhere else, one of the best atmospheres I’ve seen in indie horror games.

Another fairly competent indie horror with an eerie atmosphere and nice graphical style. The gameplay area feels a little under explored, and combined with the lack of items for designated keybindings makes me suspect that it was a project cut short - no oil for a lantern? There is no lantern! There also exist a few killer bugs that result in the player becoming fixated on a particular spot, which requires a hard reset, impacting the flow of the story and impact of the fantastic environment. I couldn't recommend it at full price with the aforementioned problems, especially at only 60 mins long, but it's actually fairly solid otherwise so I'm recommending it on sale.

Genuinely the best horror game of the screamer genre. It is not RE, not outlast, nothing even remotely close. If they base off immersion, this one is fully screamer-based. However, it was scary, very scary. From dozens of horrors played, this game is actually the one where I feared to open doors or to look from the window. Took a few water and air breaks. I don't understand why people rate it so low. I mean, this game has a relatively small location, indeed lacks new ideas, but the game is just scary and the atmosphere is just perfect. Like I can't describe it to you. It seems basic from the distance, but when you play it, it is very scary. I would pay a higher price if needed, despite how short it is. I played it a long time ago, but I still remember it because how good of an experience I had. Think of it as paying for a roller coaster ride that you will remember for months to come.
