God this game is good. Criminally underrated. Saw Jerma play it, turned it off to buy it. I hope others do the same! If you're unsure, the demo was crazy long. - Story + world building SO good - Combat feels great + good enemy variation - Lots of build variability - Unique - Nice mix of genres while never being overwhelming one or the other either - The only game to get me to utilize switching builds mid fight because its so easy and actually worth it Difficulty/Combat - It's different, it will take a second to get the hang of. But it's really not that hard. Trust me, I don't like being bad at games. I've very rarely died, especially after the first few hours. It encourages you to hide or run away if you're getting your ass beat, and it works to do so. You can go back later. And you will get plenty, plenty opportunities to see what build(s) you like and level up. Good game.

• Can kill every enemy in the game with slow overhead pipe swings • Insane soundtrack that ricochets from Baroque drip to ambient synth to breakcore to pig noises • You can huff unknown gas until the walls bleed • STR is literally just called "Violence" • Alice Unbelievable game

Looks janky as hell from screenshots and videos. Animations are pretty rough, character models are uncanny, plus a sidescrolling perspective that feels, on first examination, cheap. I was hesitant to buy this game despite the positive reviews because of these issues. Some of the above issues are valid, but they are, in retrospect, largely superficial. Believe me when I say that a passionate and talented game developer made Withering Rooms and it shows in every aspect outside its initial presentation. This is an inspired piece of work in its mechanics, story, itemization, world structure...God, it's just so solid. I don't know where to start with the good. The writing, something I hadn't considered going into this game, is actually a highlight. Lore and characters are interesting, and their motivations are complex. The world of Withering Rooms is more than a mishmash of its worthy inspirations (Silent Hill and Bloodborne being the obvious ones to me), which means it goes well beyond my initial expectations. The curse mechanic is fun and fascinating. Clearly inspired by Bloodborne's "Insight," it is cleverly integrated into combat, exploration, and environmental design, making its management a core element of gameplay that is constantly on your mind. Balanced, thoughtful and surprising. Enemy design is maybe less original but no less complex. Silent Hill is a clear inspiration, which goes well with the themes of shared trauma and mental illness. Killing an enemy for the first time brings up a poster with information on said enemy. These offer stats, lore, and often, a name. Like, "you just killed Paul, the butler". Ouch. Outside the visuals, there are some issues. Combat is clunky and not very exciting. The survival horror mechanics are cool but not super useful once you get some decent items (maybe there are pacifist or low-combat builds?). Enemies are sometimes voiced, but NPCs are not, which feels like an odd choice. Basically if you like survival horror, metroidvanias and souls games, this is a no-brainer instabuy. If you like two out of the three, I'd highly recommend it. Even one out of the three, it's still likely a good choice. Very, very excited for the developer's next game now.

Withering Rooms Another hidden gem on Steam in the survival horror genre, and a roguelike on top of that. In my opinion, it’s the best indie survival horror of the year, and possibly one of the best in general. The 2.5D presentation with highly stylish art and visuals, excellent narrative, engaging location exploration, and a dream-related theme (which I personally find very appealing) make me want to praise and recommend this game to anyone who hasn’t tried it yet. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3508482751 Honestly, when I first launched it, I expected a 5 to 10 hour experience with nice visuals, some wandering around, minimal combat, and light puzzles. Instead, I got a full-fledged 20 plus hour adventure with New Game Plus, a new ending, and a branching finale, leaving me completely delighted with the game. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3508482636 It’s stylish, dark, features build crafting, and has a fairly large cast of c haracters along with unique locations. I strongly recommend it to anyone who loves survival horror, this is a must-play, a true work of art.

Note: Hours played aren't accurate - I let games run while I work. Withering Rooms is CRIMINALLY underplayed and underappreciated - I cannot BELIEVE how slept on this gem is! I picked it up in the summer sale and within two hours it became one of my favorite games ever. It's like Bloodborne, Rule of Rose, and Silent Hill had a perfect 2.5D baby. The organic lore drip is incredible (and coherent!) and the gameplay is fun and addictive; it's described as a roguelike, and to me that means dying over and over and over and over i.e Rogue Legacy, but I managed to beat this entire game in only 3 actual deaths (not counting the handful where I experimented with enemies right after coming back and died in very rapid succession with nothing to lose, lol), and each time I had all my stuff back in like 30 mins (and there's a retaining system that expands as you progress). Did a vampire melee build to GREAT effect. Can't recommend this game enough. How does it not have more recognition? :((((
