The Fog

The Fog

Before you read: Keep in mind I’m still playing, and I’ve only played about 25 minutes so far, and died once.

So, I think my experience with this game is… odd, so far.

You’re dropped into nowhere, with very little explanation of what’s going on. You have no tutorial, no helpboxes short of just the occasional “E to interact” “Space to pick up”, etc. You’re not actually taught how to use the items, you need to kinda figure it out.

The graphics are a bit weird, they kinda remind me of DayZ’s early days and I think it’s a little bit rough. The lighting is very peculiar, and the flashlight doesn’t really help all that much - especially after you’ve taken damage.

The Alchemist’s House

This was one of those rare horror games I actually enjoyed. The artwork is gorgeous, something I don’t usually get to say in a horror title, but it takes it’s own visual style and runs with it. I don’t want to give too much away, but you are taken in by a creepy stranger. The choices you make matter, and make the wrong one, well…

I don’t know if it was timing and the game updated, by my first couple of plays the blue light did not speak. Overall, a fun horror title and it’s clear a lot of love went into it. Thanks for making such an awesome game, and for free to boot!

Well, this amateur dev certainly did the right thing by releasing her “game”/demo for free. And y’know, as such things go, it really ain’t so bad, so I’ll quickly get some of the quibbles out of the way…

The footstep sound effects: insanely unatmospheric. The character animation: ugly as sin. The voice acting: subtle as a sledgehammer on a baby’s skull. And the writing, well…I’ll be kind and not mention that at all.

Oh yeah, and for some strange reason you seem to be about three feet tall. (I don’t think I was meant to be a child. Was I meant to be a child?)

I was going to click No however, this would be a good game for a preteen or teen. It is not scary and a bit juvenile.

This is the first Halloween Stories game that I have played and is overwhelmingly the absolute best ever hidden object game that I have ever played. It is the complete deal. Story line keeps you interested in the game play and the bonus chapter picks up where the main game leaves off. The interaction with characters is one that I myself have never encountered. I extremely enjoyed the added “liveliness” of some of the animations, (streets apart from anything I have seen) congrats to the entire team that are responsible for them :-) I have no problem at all recommending this game to anyone, in fact I would encourage you to buy this game. My many thanks to the entire team for an absolutely fantastic, unforgettable and pleasurable game. Thanx
