Okay, I’ve been waiting for this game for a while now. I had no idea how close it was to launch, and never played the demo (didn’t even know there was one.) I guess you could say I was kind of casually excited for this to come out, because there’s a lot of indie horror walking sims out. Once I saw it was available, it was an immediate purchase. I bought it because I wanted to see if it had been worth the wait. My god, it was. The graphics are damn near photorealistic. The atmospheric horror is there to enjoy. This is some expert level story telling and design. I love these types of indie horror titles. In some of my reviews, a few times, I’ve said something along the lines of “I wonder what one of these indie horror walking sims would be like given an actual budget and pushed it out from 45 mins to 4+ hours.” THIS is that game. The puzzles are difficult. But once you figure them out (or cheat, like me) you roll your eyes and realize it wasn’t that bad. It is also voiced, and is done very well. I’ve seen some complain about the narrator, but I like that feature. Some have also complained about the black bars, but they don’t bother me (to be fair, I’m not using an ultrawide monitor.) If I had to gripe about something, it would be the lack of a manual save, and the lack of a notification that an autosave is happening. But that is it. I am not quite done with the game yet, but I will update as I finish it. But so far, this is a must have for any fan of the genre. Edit - after completing the game, yea, my opinion hasn’t changed. Stellar game that just continued to get better as I progressed. Whereas I adore those games that are $5 for 45 mins of indie horror, I’d much rather have those devs stop pumping them out every couple months and do something more like this. Actually put together a cohesive game that is more than just cliche jumpscares, gather a good story that will grab your players for 4-5 hours and charge us $20. Thanks to Luto, the bar for indie horror is set ridiculously high now.

i'm personally not someone who usually plays horror games, but the lovely 2d artist who worked on this one is a friend of mine and i bought and played it out of support for her. and in all honesty, i'm extremely glad i did. i didn't have a very big idea of what i was getting into when i started this, but it truly was incredible. the story of this game was so well written, the atmosphere was immersive and creepy as hell in the best ways possible. the ambient noises, the lighting, the suspense. all of it was put together in a way that just gave so much character to this game while being just enough to create a fear factor but not overdo it. and, of course, the art from alexia was perfect. seeing the way it progressed throughout the story was so good. i wasn't sure i would like this game, or even finish it, due to me not being big on horror games. but broken bird games really created such an amazing story that i wanted to keep going despite how anxious i was during a lot of the game. they are absolutely a studio i will be keeping on my radar for future game releases.

Luto is a delightful psychological horror experience that keeps you on your toes, and the narrator only helps to inflame the atmosphere. Gorgeous locations that are fun to explore, interesting puzzles, and the scariest ghosts in the sheets I've ever seen. I saw a ghost. ------------------------------------- Луто - восхитительный опыт психологического хоррора, который держит тебя в напряжении, а рассказчик лишь способствует нагнетанию атмосферы. Шикарные локации, которые интересно изучать, интересные головоломки и самые страшные призраки в простынях, которых я только видела. Я увидел призрака.

After waiting three years for this game I can happily say that this is one of those times where all three years were used to its fullest potential to make a beautiful game. Not just visually, but emotionally. It's terrifying, it's dark, it's deep, it's clever. So much love went into this and you can really feel it. I've never played a game that so cleverly used the cinematic bars for storytelling purposes. And I have to be honest that I took severe psychic damage when some people here on the steam store that only played 30 minutes leave a negative review "I can't turn off the cinematic bars". Literally this game couldn't exist without them. Obviously you can't turn them off. But anyway, this game is awesome. The demo was already good, but mostly because it was just really beautiful in terms of graphics, besides the graphics it was relatively generic. I went into this expecting yet another regular scary psychological horror game that I would play, get scared at, and then forget. But instead I got an experience that I will be measuring all future "meaningful" games against. As someone who has played hundreds of horror games I am so happy to have something unique rather than a safe and easy quick scare. Definitely highly recommend.

Pay no attention to the bad reviews of people who are disappointed that this is not another same ole same ole walking horror sim. This game is amazing and innovative. If you can't appreciate that, stick to the 5 dollar same house same assets walking sims. 5 stars out of 5.
