Whitehaven Reviews

So this is not a very long game to be honest. can be completed in 30 mins if you dont explore. The game itself is good, Sound was confusing at times. 1 part its deafening and another it seems like it should not be there any more. The story I have to say is very good. Not sure if its a good or bad ending, kinda confusing the end to be honest. Like where you playing as a ghost or an actual person? Dont really want to give details as that will be spoilers. It was fun playing, just think there is more they could have done with the game.

Nice little horror game with great creep factor and a couple of puzzles. Little shorter than I was expecting but worth a look. Would be interested in seeing this fleshed out into a full game as the first section looked like it was going to be similar exploration to RE1 and the dev clearly knows how to creep people out and make some interesting puzzles

It's a no from me. It's not overly bad. But I paid nearly a fiver when it 40% off for this and it was over in less than an hour and a large part of that was fairly pedestrian. The voiceover is quite competent, but the puzzles were largely straightforward and generic, with the exception of a clever one involving walking back and forwards through a looping hallway. And the ending completely confused me - it really made me question, just what/who the hell had I been playing as for the past 50 minutes? Avoid unless it's on a very significant discount.

Not recommended at full price but for 3 dollars (I paid 5.50) it's worth checking out. Game only lasted me about 40 minutes. It's not a scary game but really play the game for the sound. The music and sound effects do a good job when you are playing with a good set of headphones. I'm gaming on a LG OLED and the blacks being "black" are perfect for those hallways that are complete darkness so it adds to the ambiance. Ending was justified and closure is complete. Just know what you are going into for the price.

I'ts an all right horror game. Though it's super short, took me 45 minutes to beat. I payed about 3 bucks during a sale and I think that is still too much for it. If it gets down to like a buck, I'd say go for it.

Its price was fair enough to give it a try and I do not regret what I got: [h1]PROS[/h1] - [u]A simple story full of symbolism[/u]: every scene makes sense, any element is set randomly, all of them have their own meaning and your duty is to find the truth by exploring the orphanage. - [u]Clever-made puzzles[/u]: Every puzzle is unique and you need to solve them to progress in the story. I got stuck sometimes, but I did not get frustrated in any moment, I quickly realized that the game always gives you the information you need to solve each puzzle, you just have to pay attention and explore! - [u]1h-3h duration[/u]: It took me about one hour and a half to complete the game, I did not get every achivement so I think it could take much more hours to 100% complete it. - I appreciate that every spooky moment is not as simple as a jump scare, the way the game plays with you using different effects reminds me to some famous psychological horror games. - I did not expect the game were [u]dubbed[/u], a great work. SFX is well chosen for every moment they are used, it does not matter if it is a scary moment or a sad moment... [h1]CONS[/h1] - [u]Lack options[/u]: I miss some options in the game which I consider a "must-have" in every PC game, for example, key binding, However, it looks like many players have suggested changes and developers are aware of them, so I hope they can get it done soon.

Underrated game, pretty good experience. Voice acting, and the story is really well made, interesting puzzles, does not rely on cheap jump scares. Music and design create an immersive atmosphere. Worth to buy if you like this kind of games!.

played this for a hour and half and it was finished, just running round fetching things, iv played longer demos this could be a brill game with a bit more content and story to it. felt like it was just getting started and then it ended would not bother

I didn't mind the game until the looping corridors and the moon puzzle. It seems that everyone is trying to hang on to the success of PT. Only problem is that only 10% of PT inspired games are actually good. I put up with it until the moon puzzle, and after twenty minutes, I gave up. Gave a lame clue, and then not even the subtlest hint on how to progress. You don't need looping corridors to make a horror game good! The puzzles beforehand were real good, but then it's almost like the developer gave up and just wanted to make the game longer to justify the cost... Wait until it's on sale, but only if you're desperate to play it.

I wish I could leave a neutral review (please steam add this option). The game is very short for the price you pay and feels like it would be a free demo for a much bigger game. The scares are very few and the ones that did happen didn't scare me at all. The game also commits the horror game sin of a looping hallway and a looping puzzle too which is difficult to work out for me personally. The background music that loops was getting annoying quite quick with no option to turn it off, and made it worse being stuck on the Moon puzzle with it constantly. The positive points is the story was pretty decent for what there was but feels a bit predictable, the voice acting was well done and give props to that, the game has an fov slider and brightness slider which some bigger budget games don't even have. The developer is also pretty quick at responding to questions and help on the discussions so atleast you know they are there if you need help. Something to point out is there are currently no key rebinding atm but the developer has said that will come in an update. Overall its an okay game but is a little too pricey for what you get which is not that much, look forward to what you have planned next.
