This game brings a very new type of horror genre to the forefront. Liminal spaces, a new and very unique type of horror that takes spaces that we see in every day life and changes them and expands on them to make them recognizable but not quite right. Recommend playing this game and seeing what you think.

I always loved looking at liminal space images so being able to walk through a huge map and just being able to explore it is a dream come true! The atmosphere in it is great and you don't have to focus on running away from something so you can go through everything at your own pace. I'm looking forward to the additional chapters. :)

Along the same lines as "Pools", a Walking Simulator divided into 4 chapters. In my opinion it is too expensive for the total duration of 1/2 hours and too repetitive. Maybe the final chapter is the one a little different but in general there are few things to observe. The sound is one of the qualities of this game, in fact in many scenes it is really spot on. Wait for a discount to buy it. 6/10 my rating

I believe that it's impossible to put into words just how much I love this game. The aesthetics are beautiful and immersive, capturing my attention entirely. I'm a person who loves to explore and this provides a way for me to indulge in that desire without having to leave my house in search of places that offer as many visual opportunities. I especially love the ambiance that was created and the chance to revisit my childhood in certain areas of the map. I'm very glad that I chose to buy this. 'Masterpiece' is hardly an adequate enough word to describe this game in my opinion. This will be a forever favourite, I can already tell

Introduction Liminalcore is an intriguing aesthetic that captures the essence of transitional spaces and moments in life. It draws inspiration from the concept of liminality, which refers to being on the threshold between two states or places. This aesthetic resonates with those who appreciate the beauty found in the in-between, where ordinary settings transform into something extraordinary through a unique lens. Visuals The visual elements of Liminalcore are captivating. They often feature muted colors, soft lighting, and scenes that evoke feelings of nostalgia and introspection. Whether it’s an empty hallway, a dimly lit long corridor, or an abandoned building, each image invites viewers to pause and reflect on their own experiences within these spaces. The aesthetic encourages a sense of wonder about what lies beyond these thresholds. Emotional Resonance Liminalcore also taps into deep emotional currents. It evokes feelings of longing, curiosity, and sometimes melancholy. This emotional depth allows individuals to connect with their personal narratives as they navigate through life’s transitions.
