Atmospheric with a nice touch of panic, thanks for making the game.
Wow, this is a really good one! Great work!
Awesome. Began in Silent Hill style and ending at Amnesia: The Dark Descent invisible threat into cellar. Congratulations these your series needs to be in Steam and GOG for good.
This game is considered one of the most beloved horror games in the playstation one style. She is very atmospheric and tries to be like Silent Hill
i see the inspiration for silent hill. I prefer the other chapter this didnt leave me too mutch. The game is good but not amazing.
Im looking for more (like maleficium)
Yes, the game is very cool, especially the game is very similar to silent Hill)

Wow! This game pulled me into its story, and I became so immersed! It was pretty dark, and I enjoyed playing through and analyzing its symbolism. Incredible job on this one! I love retro-styled horror.More than just a horror game, had the narrative and real tension building stuff especially in the office. Loved it. I look forward to going back and playing the first game!
Check out my video.
Going through my backlog uploads, and this awesome game is in it, reminded me to go finish that Maleficium Demo! Thanks for your work

Gameplay PT-BR

I still don't understand these numbers, Mason.
this is like cry of fear game
Is there a save feature?
Hello. The game has checkpoints but no save
thanks!
Very creepy game. Great work!
The story telling in this was really artistic are super fun to go through; the change in pace from the artisticness to the literal horror mannequins was super unexpected but still well pulled off and really, really scary. I personally thought that the story wasn't as well put together in this as compared to The Body; it felt like it was jumping boats a lot and some things felt a bit too ambigious or artistic; like the electric sparkles and Geiger counter which didn't feel like it fit into the place at all, but I still think that the scary office part was well done! Overall it was really scary and pretty fun to play!
Very awesome little game! I have yet to play episode one but def going to if its anything like this one. The atmosphere was really well done and that noise that those guys made when they ran after me was awful lol Great job!
Thanks for playing!
Truly impressive stuff here.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Great atmosphere but could use a little balancing. I was not touched by an enemy until the boss. And while some enemies did make me jump I never used more than two bullets on an enemy so was always pretty stacked.
