A Game & A Warning?

Image
      Hide and Seek with Noah was definitely not what I expected it to be. I knew it was a "horror" game, but it went a horror route that I didn't expect. In this game, you have to help Noah's mom, best friend, and teacher find where the mischievous little bunny is hiding in various scenarios. However, the game takes a dark turn when it turns into an analog horror, which a choice; hide or seek. I won't spoil anything for you, but let's just say if you choose to seek, it takes you down a dark path full of abuse, murder, and kidnapping. It uses FMV (Full Motion Video), which absolutely adds to the raw fear that this simple little game was able to inflict on myself. The feeling of dread and unease that I felt during this felt so strong, as if I was witnessing something I shouldn't be. It had moments where I couldn't help but hold my breath. It takes a lot to make me feel uneasy, but this game was able to accomplish that. Don't let the colors fool you,...

12 Hour Museum

       12 Hour Museum came out when finding anomaly games were extra popular. Normally, I don't care for "find the anomaly" games, but this one caught my interest, as I love museums. You play as an unnamed male, who was knocked out in an accident. He wakes up in this museum and everything seems normal, until nightfall.      The goal is to survive the night by finding the anomaly each hour. You must find the anomaly before time runs out, and find 12 in a row or else you restart the count. There are a total of 45 different anomalies in the game, some being harder to find than others. My favorite ones to find were the ones that changed the paintings.      The game consists of 7 different endings, which are affected by the way you play. Once you find all endings and all 45 anomalies, an extra mode is unlocked and adds 54 additional anomalies. The first playthrough takes about 30 minutes on average, but once you get extras and work on clearin...

My Worst Nightmare: Ocean Desolation

Image
      This game is my worst nightmare in 3D graphics. If you don't know, I have Thalassophobia. Now don't get Thalassophobia and Aquaphobia mixed up. Aquaphobia is the fear of water itself. Thalassophobia is the intense fear of deep bodies of water like lakes, the ocean, and rivers.     In this game, you fall off your ship in a storm. You wake up, floating in the ocean on a wooden raft. In the distance you see a bell buoy. Following the lights you end up back at your raft with a box on it. On top of the box is a letter telling you what needs done. In order to complete the tasks, you need to swim from place to place in the ocean, all while disturbing sounds and invisible creatures stalk your every move.     What scared me about this game is the unknown. You're jumping into the ocean without being able to see anything around you and you have no idea what may be lurking under the depths. I could handle the monsters and creatures that torment the main char...

31 Days of Spooks: Days 5, 6, & 7

Image
 I'm sorry for the multiple days combined. Like I said before, this month is full of lots of chaos and changes, but I will hit 31 days, they may just not be separate. Thanks for understanding! Alright, so I was excited to play this game. It looked really spooky and kinda reminded me of analog horror. However, my hopes and dreams for what this game would be were dashed when they brought in the blob.....Well, this blob was apparently voiced by Ash-Plays, and oh my gosh, it ended up being awful. It went from a game that spooked me a little bit, to a game that I couldn't wait to end. There is an epilepsy warning given, and rightfully so. I ended up walk inga way from this game with a pounding headache. I'll like the game below, but take my advice... skip this one! https://linsonlime.itch.io/antipathy That Night in the Rain is a very short horror point and click, with absolutely adorable graphics. You play as a little girl who is supposed to wait in her parent's car while th...
