Lamentum is a top down pixel art horror game. In this game your character explores a huge 1800’s manor and its surrounding grounds. Gameplay involves exploring, solving puzzles, and shooting / stabbing grotesque monsters. The game has a lovecraftian / gothic vibe. There are 4 endings to discover, and the game takes approximately 6 hours to complete. The limited inventory and save system is taken straight out of the retro Resident Evil franchise. *It is highly recommended to use a controller instead of a keyboard for this game. + The game is atmospheric and the grotesque monsters are well designed. + The game has an original soundtrack and the sound design is exceptional. + The story is above average and captures interest. +/- For the most part the puzzles are original and well designed, however several puzzles near the end of the game are a bit too obscure and confusing. - The last third of the game is tedious, with too much backtracking, For me, the last hour of the game felt like a chore. - As more of the game map opens up, it is easy to get lost and not know where to go or what to do. - There are 4 endings, but they are all short. I would have put more emphasis on one large definitive ending. - One of the endings is almost impossible to achieve without a guide. The game starts off excellent, but gets tedious and fizzles out during the final act. Overall: 7.5/10
TDLR - everything else except the controls are the reasons to play this game! If I had to rate it, 8.5/10 If you have a weekend where you want to try something new - try Lamentum! The storytelling and atmosphere of this game is amazing - some of it was predictable, sure, but it didn't steal way from the story whatsoever. Tropes are tropes for a reason, and this studio did very well portraying them. Gothic horror is always a great genre to delve into and I did have a genuine jump in my seat once or twice (yes, even with it being pixel, those monsters catch me off guard sometimes). I was rooting for both Alissa and Victor throughout the game and thought that the roles the NPCs played were short, but clear when it came to furthering the story. Boss battles and monsters were fun when it came to figuring out their mechanics and whether to run vs. fight. The endings, while I haven't achieved them all (achieved 2/4 as of this review), seem like a good balance between "easy to obtain" and "yes, put some elbow grease in there, that's why they're the best endings" based on the guide I read. Now, the gameplay mechanics - WHEW. It wasn't my favorite and definitely took some time to adjust, even when playing on a controller. I thought it was a bit silly that some items, such as keys, were automatically used w/o needing to equip, but ink, the required item for saving, had to be equipped beforehand. Aiming your gun was a bit wonky, but not horrific, especially since you can dodge/swing your way through the game. I also struggled longer than I'd like to admit when it came to using a knife for a situation where it had to be treated as an item, not as a weapon (even though it's equipped and used as a weapon for the rest of the game).
---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☑ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS + the game has pretty nice and simple pixelarted graphics, which gets quite detailed during cutscenes and is a big "highlight" of the story in combination of enviromental storytelling ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☑ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't + personally don't like much if a game forces you to limited ammount of saves, so it's pretty nice that you get an option to turn off limited saves + the game is quite heavily inspired by Resident Evil (especially in the world progression style, inventory limitation) and Silent Hill (combat) + decent ammount of weapons for its gametime, which each new weapon basically being an upgrade of previous weapon (some can be slightly more hidden) + quite big variety of enemies throughout the game +- first half of the game felt great, but personally wasn't the biggest fan of the garden areas, the roof and some parts towards the end +- slightly clunky combat (hitboxes) - having to equip ink every time you want to save is rather annoying ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf +- most of the game, you'll hear either background effects or save room theme, but there are few simple tracks +- more of a warning, some effects can be really loud ---{ Audience }--- ☐ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma + although the game is pixelarted, it includes quite a lot of blood, nudity and cosmic horror ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☑ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer + the game has pretty low hardware requirments ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☑ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 15% of your 1TB hard rive ☐ You will want an enitre hard drive to hold it + the game is only 1.75gb ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☑ Easy ☐ Medium ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls + never really found myself getting frustrated on any enemy (playing on medium difficulty) +- enemies are usually pretty easy to defeat or to dodge them and don't respawn, but some are replaced through story progression └> MC also has asthma around enemies, you run out of stamina pretty quickly - kinda forgot that dodge roll is even a thing (never really had to use it) - quite easy puzzles ---{ Grind }--- ☑ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☐ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second live for grinding + nothing to grind for except endings ---{ Story }--- ☐ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Bizarre ☑ Average ☑ Good ☐ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life + the story is quite classic, but still interesting, set in mid-19th century New England and inspired by cosmic horrors, especially by H. P. Lovecraft and Silent Hill 1 (kind of) ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☑ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond +- took me 3 hours 50 minutes to finish two endings (Cowardice - early ending and Redemption ending). Could be a bit longer, but it has two more endings, adding into replay value ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☑ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money +- the game is 15,19€ off sale, would probably wait for sale, unless you really like horror games/this style ---{ Bugs }--- ☐ Never heard of ☑ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ☐ Hollow Knight +- found a bug where going between two doors would get me stuck in "unloaded" version of the main hall, but otherwise no bugs except some enemies ---{ 7.5 / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☑ 7.5 ☐ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10 Although I'm not the biggest fan horror games, specifically survival horror, and there were quite few things I had issues with, it was still a really enjoyable game. Will have to wait and see how INANIMA, the developer team's upcoming game, turns out.
