The Corridor: On Behalf Of The Dead

The Corridor: On Behalf Of The Dead

I truly enjoyed playing this game. The atmosphere was what kept me going to explore and discover more of what was going on here. If you liked playing Observer and Soma this game is right along those lines but with it’s own twist. It’s got a nice flavor of creepiness without resorting to jump scares to make you feel uneasy. . The ending is with a ‘to be continued’ tag and I do hope that there will be more game play to follow. Achievements are available which if you try to complete them will aid you in solving more of the mystery.

The Corridor: On Behalf Of The Dead is a story based Sci-Fi / Horror game that focuses mostly on setting a strong unsettling atmosphere while adding sci-fi elements around it.

You spend most of the game walking around exploring memories and piecing together the story. The cohesion system really works well and adds a nice survival mechanic.

Audio is relay nice too and adds a disturbing layer to the experience.

8/10

Chernobyl inferno

Chernobyl inferno

After the disaster at Chernobyl Atomic Power Station, many locals hid from radiation in underground shelters, canalization, houses basements and other underground units. They had been living underground for several years being afraid to go out. In some years radiation got through the ground, people started to mutate, chaos under the ground had begun. As a result of the mutation, some people became aggressive and started to hunt other people. After 30 years one boy called Jack penetrated Chernobyl territory to film a video and make some photos. When he entered the old house, the floor under his feet collapsed and he fell into the sewers of the very dungeon in which the mutated inhabitants of Chernobyl lived. He managed to send you a message asking for help, after which he never got back in touch. Your main goal is to find your brother, who got lost in the catacombs of Chernobyl.

This was a good game. It was pretty short only around 30 or so minutes to complete so that is a downside for the price of $5 but not a deal breaker. It gave me some decent scares and was pretty creepy. The story also kept me engaged enough to play through it entirely. It definitely wasn’t super polished but overall I would still recommend. If you want to see some game play you can watch my video below.

Typical Steam horror shovelware, sadly. I was interested in the hazy atmosphere and very beautiful palette. I tried to excuse the copy/paste enemies teleporting in front of my face as their only method of attack, but then during my only two attempts it broke halfway through each time. When trying to cross a large bridge it would fade into white and then become only interactable with via alt f4. There’s potential for the ideas here, this just doesn’t scratch it.

Escape from DuFo

Escape from DuFo

Good short game. It only took about 10 minutes to complete but I enjoyed it quite a bit and wished it was a full game. It looked good and ran great plus the puzzles were pretty decent. Overall for less than a $1 on sale I would recommend checking it out. If you want to see some game play you can check out my play through below.

The cool trailer music is from the band Auralnotes, called “How to Make a Blockbuster Movie Trailer”.

This “game” will last you around 5 minutes at best, isn’t scary, isn’t fun and actually, isn’t even really much of a game. The trailer is far more entertaining.

My Mind Ghost

My Mind Ghost

So, I gave this a go and was open to it, there is some interesting mechanics though not fulfilled in the best way, there is at the root of this a simplistic yet tricky little puzzle game. However it has some bugs which I could forgive but the most Major Bug is you get to the end of LVL 2 and there is no more game, despite it showing there is 8 lvls at least, until this is fixed do not buy this game.

TLDR: bug stops you playing game

Update to review: the game also send tcp data over port 27030 with no indication of why / what its doing (stay safe folks), they did fix so lvl 3 is avalible but progress now does not save so if you exit out back to lvl 2 for you, y do I still play this keen for next update

My Mind Ghost is a simple 2D top down JRPG style retro pixel stealth action game where you must run around a small 2D “maze” and collect objects to escape while a ghost chases you.

The rough as guts English translation is just the tip of the iceberg in this horror stealth game. They chose to use obsolete retro pixel “art” as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It’s unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result.

Phantom 3D

Phantom 3D

Phantom 3D is a spiritual successor to early maze based 3D games of the 80’s such as 3D Monster Maze or Maze War. Like those games it has a pretty simple gameplay loop in which you must collect treasure and find a key and exit to get out of the maze, however there is a timer counting down that once it reaches the end a phantom will enter the map and head directly for the the player. You can get scrolls that will increase your time limit and can be used to push the phantom away once he spawns on map. If the phantom catches the player he takes your soul and you get a game over.

For a game that’s a couple of bucks. This is not too bad. Sure, the level editor is very limited and you can complete the campaign in under a hour or less. You can easily dodge The Phantom if you just go around him when he gets close. This is like the only horror game where you can customize your surroundings. In other games, the developers just either make you have to code your own or they aren’t targeting horror audiences. So, since this is the only game like that out there, It’s definitely something to buy if you can’t code or are looking for a time killer with just barely any replayability, which stinks but I guess no game can last forever

Angels Cove

This game scared the crap out of me. I will admit I do not play horror games often, but the jump scares, music, and intense situations kept me incredibly anxious. Through all of that I was surprised when it was over and was looking forward to more game play.

Ehhhh. The spooks were hard to take seriously as they didn’t make much sense with the story (there wasn’t much of one, at least from what I could gather.) I enjoyed the graphics and the spooky atmosphere, and the pacing was pretty good too, but something I look for the most in a game is a good story…and this one just didn’t quite do it for me.

If you don’t care about that and are just looking for fun jump scares and classic spoops, then give it a go! I will say that the hour of gameplay it had to offer was very entertaining nonetheless! I also found out that this was a one person project, which is pretty impressive.
