I bought Haunted Shores on a whim because a friend of mine had mentioned it was just added to steam. I decided to check it out since it had paranormal and horror related tags. Man let me tell you what! I have anxiety and I use THX Spatial headphones which has obvious surround sound and allows sound to play from either headphone that sound is on. So for example if its on the left you hear it in your left headphone. Anyways, what I am trying to say is that I freaked out playing! Very few games can do that to me! I don’t wanna give away any spoilers as to what got me to jump, but just take my word on it. It will happen!

Trenches - World War 1 Horror Survival Game
My sister loves horror and I love WW1, so I thought we’d try it out. We played for about an hour and a half and completed it with 3 or 4 attempts. The total game could probably be accomplished in around half in hour if you really knew what you were doing.
Pros:
- Awesome sound design. I love the ambiance as well as the spooky sounds that play whenever the monster (my sister calls him “the meat bag”) spots you. Something about it triggers the fight or flight response, makes the hair on the back of you neck stand up. Personally I could very clearly pinpoint the position of meat bag with the audio, some reviews say otherwise. I was surprised how good audio is as created by a single dev, especially on the Unity engine ;-)

Not incredibly far in (only just found the map but done crap tons of exploring) but I keep having to pause it since the atmosphere is terrifying. So far i have no problems, I am yet to be chased by anything but the hanging man scared me senseless. Devs please don’t patch this cuz it’s hilarious but if you look at your shadow and crouch you turn into a skeleton and I have found it very amusing. Keep up the good work, hoping for (dreading) plenty more scares :)
UPDATE: Too scary. got the wire cutters and quit after a jumpscare I didn’t see cuz I flinched back. Gonna get my brother to play it then give it another go. 20/10 play it if you have spare underwear and a chair that won’t stain.

Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake-
Really great so far. Overall, the sprite work, artstyle, soundeffects and - track are very good at worst.
Girl’s Graveyard is very intruiging and can be extremely eerie. I’ve had a complaint about a room getting too dark which was apparently fixed according to update news.
Twisted Puzzle is fun though I found some hints to be too vague but I also think changing that would severely hurt the game and its presentation.
So far the Remake of the “main” game is also very good. I can’t really say more at the moment considering it’s not finished.

I look forward to the completed product of this game. The old version of Close Your Eyes is without a doubt one of my favorite indie games out there, especially in terms of story. I am happy that this remake, which also contains so much more than the original game to the point that one could call this a sequel (which it may be, who knows!), was made. I am more than happy to buy this game (while the old one was free, I would have absolutely paid to play it) and as said before, I am eagerly anticipating the next update to this game.

The game is pretty playable, if you wanna play an mix of puzzle and horror. This game is %100 better than other usual horror games. I hope the developer will continue his progress with the game.

Horror Royale
This game absolutely slaps. The engineering was funded with the equivalent of a McChicken. But that’s a good thing. Because McChickens are fantastic and this game definitely has potential. Recommend strongly. Amazing with friends.

Honestly i had a ton of fun on this game with some friends. Spent almost 3 hours just doing nonsense. With some tlc this could be a fun party game. Dont take it so seriously, just enjoy the game for what it is.

Dark Tales from México: Prelude. Just a Dream… with The Sack Man
DARK TALES FROM MÉXICO
This is a saga of 9 short games and a prelude in a 3D survival horror style, based on tales from the real Mexican folklore in which every monster it´s originally a physical sculpture made and painted by hand and then 3D scanned using photogrammetry.
IN THIS EPISODE
You are a young girl who is sleeping and having a nightmare in the middle of which your grandmother appears giving you a key, then a black cat starts talking to you and tells you that if you want to wake up, you must recover, in less than an hour, a dagger that is inside a labyrinth where the Sack Man lives, the monster that steals children from that old legend that your grandmother also told and warns you that this labyrinth is alive, that it changes its shape and that it will protect the monster by showing you your own fears, and that if you fail, you will remain inside the labyrinth forever and you will never wake up again.
EBOLA 2 survival
My name is David, and I’m going to tell you my gruesome story. I worked as a military contractor until I stepped on a landmine. And that is where my real nightmare began.
The first flight took me to the hospital on Brute Street. There was an underground science lab, Mole 529. It was built in early 2020 by experienced architects and builders.
A prominent businessman, Dr. Charlie Edward, owned its entire stock.
He had made a huge breakthrough in medicine and science. Hopeless patients: those who had terminal cancer, AIDS, schizophrenia, physical injuries, and other illnesses and had lost faith in their recovery now could be cured. The best minds from all over the world worked for Charlie. It was a significant success that was recognized by all mankind.
Everything was fine until Jason, the richest and most powerful person in the world, bribed all the shareholders and became the owner of 80% of all Panicum shares.
Jason was addicted to power. Moreover, he had conducted biological weapons research. When he got hold of 80% of the shares, he became the President of the Panicum Corporation.
Charlie was an intelligent man who sought to help people. But he lost and had to flee across borders.
Now the doctors of the scientific center are reassembling my body after that tragedy in the war. And I hope nothing has changed since the management shuffle…

Obsideo
This is a launch day review. Just for some perspective as of writing this review I have played a decent amount already, 76 hours, due to previously having access to the Beta.
Pros
-
Insane number of ghost interactions compared to other paranormal games (currently 50+), with already 8 ghost types in the game, with many more to come. Both of these in combination add a lot of unpredictability and replayability to the game.
-
Very creepy atmosphere and ambience that adds to the horror element. No cheap jump scares here.

For an early access game, this game is absolutely amazing. I haven’t experience most of the game breaking bugs that other people have so my review on things are mostly based on my experience.
The Gameplay:
For the first couple of runs I have done the smallest map, Potts Road. It takes a little used to getting accustomed to the environment and figuring out how things work, but when you start to get the flow of things you start to understand what is needed to be done and how you need to survive and cast exorcisms. The process of subconsciously scanning the environment for any changes or disturbances that appear is something I’m quite fond of. You’re not just guessing or being brain dead about your decisions as if you fail the exorcism or get the select the wrong ghost, you have no choice but to immediately evacuate as you only have one attempt in exorcising the ghost. This creates a sense of tension that makes the player have to analyze the situation you’re in and how you’re going to do things to find concrete evidence of which type of ghost along with confirming what evidence items are needed for the ghost and the support items required for the exorcism.
