Im not the kind of guy to scare easy. But.... This is one game I have trouble playing.
I bought It on a whim - look like a fun, scary game. It is fun, in its own way. Its mostly about puzzle solving and exploration similar to old point and click games, except its in a first perseon view.. As odd as that sounds this game scares me. Mostly because its not about the typical kind of horror you expect from a video game. Its something... deeper. (couldnt find the right words)
Visually its rather unimpressive. But it goes to show that graphics aren't need to make a terrifyingly atmospheric game. Audio fairs much better, ranging from spooky to down right unsettling. Headphones are a must - even the game tells you before you start!
I can't really say much without spoilers. Except for the fact that you have no weapons and light is your only friend. Best played at night and with headphones!
I recommend it if your looking for a different type of game. Perhaps the faint of heart need not apply.
