It's OK. Got a bit cross with a lot of the very obvious imminent traps and jumpscares but by far my BIGGEST complaint is the ending. You see a locked dialogue box saying "no I don't trust you I'll do it myself" so you're just like oh, she's going to fucking betray me, isn't she? And then she fucking betrays you and turns out to be evil. Maybe just uhhhhhh don't show that box if your game actions haven't unlocked it, maybe? Duh? . Again, it is an OK game, but that annoyed me enough to snub the alternate endings rather than be intrigued enough to replay.

Maid of Sker is a very interesting game that I found a bit cliche but still rewarding. The game was a problem experience for me, having no crashes or issues. The story is compelling enough, but I do feel that there is not enough to go on to fully understand the lore. I would like an extended version of the game that allowed for more exploration and explanation of how things came to be. While cliche, I found it still enjoyable and liked how the various endings played out. I recommend Maid of Sker, as a puzzle-lite and quick story style game.

Maid of Sker is really two games, not one. The first is an exploration mystery in which you try to rescue your beloved from a dastardly scheme of greed and murder. This mostly consists of working through levels which, although semi-open, are largely linear in practice. You look for the usual collectibles and lore, along with keys and McGuffins in the form of music sheets and cylinders. There are enemies scattered throughout, but the gameplay mostly depends on being patient and not getting too close to them. You have a means to heal, and one defensive mechanism in the form of a temporary stun device. So would I call this survival horror? Not really. The enemies are your basic patrol AI, which become antagonistic if you bump a piece of furniture or run or breathe right next to them. But survival is pretty easy since apart from one miniboss, the enemy paths are regimented and so I never really felt the tension of trying to stay alive. I'd call this an exploration mystery game. It's fun, and lastly around 6 hrs, doesn't overstay its welcome. The best part of the Maid of Sker is the sound design, which is rich and very immersive. The other game that is packaged in here is the Challenge section. I call it a whole other game for two reasons. First, the gameplay is fundamentally different. The enemy types are much more diverse and challenging, and you get weapons with which to kill them. So it's much more Resident Evil-esque. Second, there are four challenges each of which takes me about an hour for a single playthrough, and they involve navigating a reconfigured layout of the hotel to escape the labyrinthe. Each challenge enhances the difficulty, whether by having you play in the dark, fight only with a melee weapon, or get no lives (there are no saves on Challenges, so you have to do a challenge in one sitting). In some ways, I'd say the Challenges are the more interesting game, thanks to the wider variation in enemy types and the more interesting final boss battle to escape. But truthfully both games are not varied or surprising enough to be worth the money on their own. Only together do I think they constitute enough interesting playtime. Maid of Sker is a nice indie game for those looking for something atmospheric and tense without being particularly scary or intense. People looking for another Outlast or Visage should look elsewhere. I'd class this more in the same vein as The Vanishing of Ethan Carter or Perception or The Beast Inside. Enjoyable but don't expect too much.

If Resident evil, Outlast met a greek mythologist and decided to hang out with a Artificer. Not long, but very interesting, the story was well written, no secrets for another game, no stress or over achieving goals, no machines in fur suits chasing u, just a simple horror game telling a story and it is beautiful. highly recommend this game and would love to play/record more games you make involving this universe. keep it up!
