SCP: Secret Files Reviews

it was like what remains of Edith Finch but SCP universe.

This was a complete waste of time. The first two missions were spoiled for me since the devs literally released gameplay of both before the game came out, which wouldn't be a big deal if there weren't LITERALLY ONLY 5 MISSIONS in total in this game! No iconic SCPS were featured in this, except maybe the dragon one which also happens to be the most boring to sit through cus it's literally just a fucking unskippable slideshow. As for the story, it's hard to suspend the disbelief, and trust me there is a lot of it going through this. "The foundation" wants to use death-row inmates to experiment on anomalies to help protect civilization, yet has absolutely no regard for human life? I mean they literally kidnapped and tortured a new-born E.S.P girl from her mother who can bend reality around her and didn't expect things to go wrong? Or how about how they seemingly have an actual infinite amount of class D personnel to for some reason just mindlessly send them to die even with no change in the "experiment" outcome? This just makes me believe that the foundation just likes killing people in gross and unusual ways because lolzzz :P. It doesn't make any sense to me and is just stupid writing. At least with the older SCP games, you could SUSPEND your disbelief, because you were an inmate escaping these ridiculous monsters - and it was fun. Like I said, waste of time and for 13 USD! smhhhh I'm honestly baffled this game has as many positive review as it does, but my guess would be that more kids played this than actual adults.

I can't get past the first interaction with the Hanged King. Every time I just sprint for the door, the game stalls and I get caught. Is this just a bug?

I love this game. I love SCP and being able to play through some stories is a treat. Each chapter is different with different mechanics. The last one is creepy and funny at the same time. A few of the achievements are unbalanced and one is almost impossible. 6 hours to complete. A few more for getting more achievements Overall rating: 7/10

Fantastic game, if you want a good, story driven, SCP game this might be something you're interested in. This is the developer's first game and I'd say they did a great job.

This one really took me by surprise. Such a fantastic blend of art-styles and even genres that is so rare with games. Normally, games stick to one genre but this one will have you shitting yourself one minute, laughing the next and then, maybe, even sprinkle in a little childlike whimsy that, as said, is VERY rare in games, let alone SCP-based games. It's also the devs first ever game so, play it :3
