ClayTown Horror Part One Reviews

Cute short game, I have to admit I was like 2 deaths away from rage quitting the segment with the magnifying glass key Shit was unfairly hard

This game is a major improvement from the demo. it would be pretty cool if you did add achievements tho... 8/10 not bad had/having fun would recommend.

The games visuals are great with everything being made of stationary and clay, atmosphere was excellent and eerie with nice sound cues especially with the monster than chases through out the house. Game play is simple with just interacting with object and doors being simply pushed open. Some segments (mainly the boss areas) seemed a bit tedious and less scary, (I think one boss was missing as it felt like that as well) The story left a lot to be desired as i felt it was all over the place with sadly the ending being main pickup point that peaked my interest but to be told see you in part 2, you don't really find out much info about why you are at the house or what actually happened. nothing explained either mainly just notes about whats going on in the Clay "Town". I do recommend picking this up for the creepiness and the feeling of being on edge but not for the story as it is right now. I also wish i knew that it was gonna be in part because i would have purchased it as a whole bundle instead of this.

Fun little game. Liked the animation style. Challenging enough, not too easy and not too difficult. There is an issue with the Claytown Combat minigame you have in there. Once you start the game you cant leave unless you close claytown horror entirely, like opening task manager. At least not that i could figure out anyway.

The games great! and I was able to bear it without those hard ass statue things up my back! sheesh.. it feels a lot different tho, like hopefully there could be an available demo or an hard mode with those statues back.

Congratulations! You managed to make a 24-year-old grown woman, who hasn't been scared of a horror game since she was 10, ask her big brother when he'll be home so she doesn't have to play your game by herself. I am both elated and embarrassed, why would you do this to me, no game has the right to creep me out to this extent.

I've been waiting for this game to come out and there is definitely a lot of promise here, I think the game needs more work. I encountered several glitches such as having the controls menu remain on screen until I reset the game, leaving through a window and ending up out of bounds and falling through the floor and seeing some areas in which there were holes in the geometry that I could see out through. There was also an issue I had where interacting with a door did not open it, and instead I had to just walk into it. I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I just found it unintuitive but it took me a while to figure out how to even enter the building due to this. One of the first puzzles I came to felt frustrating because I had to alternate between reading a note, looking at a little house and looking at paintings, and after that one of the paintings was in such a dark spot that I couldn't read it at all. what was very good though is the unique aesthetic, which is achieved so well and is the reason I was drawn to this game in the first place, and the atmosphere that became very tense and gripping when spooky events would occur. Because of these aspects I want to follow this game and see if it gets any significant updates, but as of right now, it's not for me.

+ Stylistically the game is fantastic, unique, amazing. - Gameplay mechanics-wise this game is obtuse, counter-intuitive, and some including myself do and will find this current (Nov. 2022) version of this game confusing in a way that makes the experience frustrating. the death-sound is incredibly unpleasant in every way.

Amazing artstyle, good plot, challenging mechanics, and I LOOOVE it! The devs are great and care a lot about this game and making it enjoyable for the players. Would highly recommend to any horror game fan, but especially if you like Little Big Planet or Nightmare Before Christmas :-)

I was interested in the game because I really like claymation and the trailer seemed cool. The game is advertised with cutscenes, voice acting and the premise of being part of a children’s show that somehow has gone horribly wrong. I experienced none of that in the game. There was no story other than a couple vague letter scattered about and the game consists of slowly exploring an abstract house with no clear goal. Didn’t feel like what was advertised at all.
