Review report:
Negatives: needed more puzzles and more story, too short, had some noticeable bugs,
Positives: good atmosphere, sound design was good enough to create unease,
Gameplay
Sprint button is available but has almost no noticeable change to movement speed (Saw some reviews mention this too)
PT-like with a hallway and door to go through to repeat and look for what has changed
Doorbell rings but the door cannot be answered
Door unlocks after blowing out all candles in order on a pentagram floor drawing
NV cam in use when the basement runs out of power
Levers need to be turned on to get the power back
Music
Atmospheric and tense as the game starts, walking through a blood-red hallway
Music changes to very intense when the apartment changes a lot and in the basement
Sounds
Game has a deep sfx for switching menu options
Sfx in the house echo for quite a long time
Art
Realistic art
NV effect looks good
UI
Looks a little bare in the options menu for the buttons and selectables
Otherwise it’s fine
Writing
Radio programs offer a limited view into the story
Scare Factor
After reading first note, a shadowy figure appears at the end of the hallway when turning around
Knocking at the PT repeat door, was locked
Chair doll in childs room making weird noises, getting in front of it makes door close
Lights turn off and I have to turn them back on
Wall crawling creature appeared when walking through the PT portal door
Trash bag was left suspiciously in the kitchen, when getting closer and turning around a scary lady was there, then disappears when getting too close
Painting on the wall falls down and player is forced to look at it
Door near the portal door is knocked on, opening it reveals a shadowy figure on the other side, and the door is closed
Hallucinations in the hallway make everything go red and the crawling creature returns
Light explodes very loudly
Scary lady is standing menacingly and making noises in the kitchen
Tv turns on loudly
The tv show that comes on is somehow the creepiest one that could have been chosen, something old
The only sound that comes out is a low creepy droning
Loud knocking on bathroom door
Loud jumpscare after crawling through desks in the hallway, scary lady flew out of door
The tv room has a key which can be picked up, and when trying to leave player is forced to look at the tv once more
After this is done breathing can be heard behind the player, and the way is blocked by something (Need to turn around and get jumpscared)
Scary lady in the bathroom, door slams shut and she starts banging
Prompt to run away
Creature huddled over a pile of stuff was in a room boarded up with wood, jumpscares if you look at it too long
Ultra scare after listening to the radio in a room at the end of the stairs, lady jumps out and screams
Scary lady face leaning past wall
Scary lady also crawls really creepy on path I need to go
Visibility in the basement is extremely low and it’s well known what is down there
Extra
Made with Unreal
Overall
Maximized playability with 2-3 small environments
Created a wonderfully tense atmosphere
It may have been fruitful to translate the game into a couple more languages
