Atmosphere's great, story's good, gameplay's lacking and only really matters in the end

Super creepy and unsettling until the last few nights. I felt VERY uneasy for a majority of this game. Much of the game was simply series of tasks that would lead to "happenings" which I very much enjoyed. Unfortunately, the final few nights turned into more of a tower defense sort of situation that didn't match the vibes of the initial nights. Regardless, the entire game is absolutely worth the bargain basement price. Don't let the PS1 graphics turn you off!

Primitive graphics, yet oddly unnerving atmosphere. Humans do have a knack for creating discomfort.

This game absolutely nails suspense and jump scares. Great story and super well done cutscenes that leave you constantly guessing what will happen next or what is actually going on. Easily one of the scariest games I've played since Alien:Isolation but this is far more cerebral while still having great cat/mouse gameplay.

the static speaks my name A dark/sad/weird/funny first person exploration game. You play a man on his last night alive as he obsesses over a mysterious painting. More of a story game in that it emphasizes mood and character over gameplay. Takes ten minutes to play and has "next-gen" features like a shrimp tank.
