Such a good game. Adore this series. I watched it back in the day and couldn't get enough of it, and it was just as fun to play. The rest of the series sadly isnt great and such a shame. This game amazing and a must play maybe 1 or 2 bugs but they usally just funny, The second game is buggy but still fun and silly sometimes, Then the third game don't bother its horrendous and full of game breaking bugs and horrendous animations.

Lucius is a notable horror game, The main story takes roughly 6 to 8 hours to complete. You play as Lucius, the son of Lucifer, who receives supernatural powers on his sixth birthday and is tasked with eliminating everyone inside Dante Manor. The atmosphere is twisted and macabre, designed to feel like a classic 1970s horror vibe The gameplay involves orchestrating various "accidents" using telekinesis, mind control, and everyday household items to make the family kill them self with mind control or by ruining their life telekinesis is used for various things including the killings you can also set people on fire being that you have the hellfire of lucifer in you For true horror fans who crave pitch black ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up themes, this game is an absolute must play. If you love grim storylines and creative, bloody gore, staging these brutal "accidents" using telekinesis, mind control, and everyday household items delivers some, twisted satisfaction as you kill the family and estate staff. But you should be prepared for the fact that it is frequently prone to glitches sadly. The story pacing is effective and keeps the player engaged, though the actual gameplay can be tricky and confusing at times. The puzzles are challenging, and it is often unclear what the next objective is due to highly cryptic riddles. However, by exploring the manor and listening in on conversations, interacting with the characters, you can eventually determine the necessary steps to progress. Despite the regular technical issues, physics glitches, and crashes, it remains a unique evil puzzle horror game for those interested in the genre. For horror fans looking for incredible atmosphere and gruesome kills, it is entirely worth pushing through the bugs. ps: THIS GAME LOOKS FIRE WITH SHADERGLASS (free on steam, has filters to make your game look better, had mine on a crt filter and it looked amazing with scanlines)

Would recommend. Came here expecting a horror game. Left wondering why I wanted to adopt the son of the Devil. Yes, he's evil. Yes, he murders people. Yes, he's responsible for absolute chaos. Unfortunately for everyone else... he's also just a little guy. If evil, why tiny?

really enjoying being a little devil Ψ(`‿´ # )↝ so glad to finally get to play this game myself after years of watching pewdiepie play it over and over and over again since i was like 11!! soundtrack 11/10 sound effects 10/10 love the weather/seasonal changes the gruesome death cutscenes are too good ui is very nice game runs really smooth i personally love how the game looks, its a bit rough cus its older but honestly that adds to the whole vibe only "negative" thing would be the manor literally feels like a maze sometimes even after years of watching gameplay heh (ill most likely get used to it the more i play tho) and sometimes its a bit hard to understand exactly what u have to do when setting up certain killings but i usually remember and even if i dont its at least nice for exploring and wandering around so not that big of a negative unless youre trying to rush
