Neat little mysterious visual novel game which isnt too long, just about 20minutes for a walkthrough. Though there are a few different endings to get so there is some replayability at least. Artwork is good as i do like the design of the character Hoshi,.who is the focus in the game. Downside is that there were a few grammatical and spelling errors along the way, but at least it wasn’t so bad that it ruined the story/game. Also it is a pretty cheap game so at least that isn’t so bad for perhaps an hour to two worth of gameplay

A fun little game with a slight “twist”. The majority of other novels I’ve played had rather poor sound quality, “Locked” on the other hand focused on it. I found it refreshing. :)

Vampire & Monsters: Mystery Hidden Object Games - Puzzle

Short version: It’s mostly just HOGs like other Crisp App Studio games, but it is enjoyable enough.

There’s no real story here and no proper ending, this is purely a Hidden Object Game with a few spot the differences thrown in and a handful of rotate the tiles to make the picture (easy). Once you’ve discovered enough of the hidden objects you can choose to try to beat the scene within 2 minutes.

Each scene has a set of objects, each time you play the scene you get given roughly half of those objects to find.

Vampire & Monsters: Hidden Object Games - this is a logical game in the genre and adventure. The interface is very simple and clear, all this is expressed through bright and pleasant colors of shades, the whole game came out very colorful, which gives a big plus to the game. The characters themselves are very well developed and the background music is likewise interesting. Also, they improved the levels by adding in more than double the amount of items to find so if you replayed the level you are still finding new items. There are various tasks in the game: finding objects, finding differences, searching for the same items. At the same time, there are simple tasks, and there are those that you will have to break your head on.I recommend this for some casual, quiet fun with great graphics and objects for a super low price

If any game deserves to be called a decent single player game that matches the joyful task completing mechanics that are so engaging in the popular Among Us game, then this would be it. Everything from the 2D graphics style down to the countless possibilities of different things that could go wrong while you are trying to figure out whether or not you were dreaming. The only way out of the dream is by death.

I had very similar dreams as a child… However in my case, I awoke from those dreams by taking off my shirt. Every time I would take my shirt off, I would be transitioned into a new dream. Take this same mechanic, but instead of it being a shirt, it’s a gun. It is a very enjoyable game experience. Part of what makes it so enjoyable is the many ways that the developer has added for you to figure out whether or not it was a dream.

Pros:

1. The concept is really amazing and the game is so catchy! I literally can’t stop playing it (played the demo through and through (10 hours)) and finally the full version is out!

2. The artsyle is cool!

3. The full version is much less repetitive than the demo. More than 150 hints of a dream, different weapons, monsters, friends e.t.c.

4. The lore for the game is interesting. On the hard difficulty your goal is not only to survive bur to reveal secrets and figure out puzzles - very cool!

Отличная геймплейная демонстрация довольно уникальной геймплейной механики. Большое разнообразие признаков сна, некоторые из которых потребуют большой внимательности при осмотре локации(будьте вы прокляты ленивые фиксики и исчезающие двери). Приятные рисовки(да, да, да их две). И достижения, получение которых заставит вас всплакнуть от затраченного времени и затраченных усилий(Ash я не представляю, как я должен был догадываться, где он будет спавниться дальше). А что еще вам нужно от бесплатной игры?
