OK so I actually had no idea what i was expecting when i started. I actually chose this game when i streamed. It was amazing to say the least, well worth the money i spent on it. The Developer and The Music Composer both have pride in this game, i actually met them both when i was streaming and it was amazing meeting them both. I named the demon boy "Tommy" not his real name. The sounds kept me on the edge of my seat, and the story was actually really well put together. The controls were smooth and i can say for certain i am gonna go back through and play it on the hardest difficulty. So if you are a streamer and looking for you next horror game to stream i Highly Recommend this game 100% its not crazy long and works perfect if you just want to have a good time getting scared. Just don't panic shoot like i do.

Nice short horror game, enough combat to add some tension without getting annoying. Its not a walking sim jump scare game. basically the game is exploration with an ever present stalker while you try to figure out the games mystery

This game was much bigger than I first thought. You can tell the areas/scenes were created with a lot of detail. Nothing felt off or unnatural and it was easy to get sucked into the game but since the areas are large get ready to explore if you want to find everything. The best part of the game though was the story as I was completely wrong about it until I got hit with the unforeseen at the end. Was very satisfying in scratching that itch of a interesting story you can wrap up within a few hours on your first run. If you really want to go the extra mile there are several levels of pain if your ready.
Would recommend this for folks that want visually appealing & short horror story experience.
Small plug for those that want to watch a little if they aren't ready to commit yet with minimum spoilers https://youtu.be/zt3Ybz1ToDw

Fantastic experience, the photos make it look like a jump scare game but its really more freaky and unsettling than outright scary. Will give you a fun night as you can complete pretty easily in one sitting. My heart was racing from start to finish.

I played the game for 2 hours and got right to the end but didn't beat the last boss.
+ The atmosphere of the different locations is great
+ The weapon and upgrade system was original
+ The story is disturbing and interesting
- The graphics are plain and dated
- One of the puzzle items to find a code is in a really obscure out of the way location, hard to find
- The enemy can be really cheap at times and hit you from behind, you cant tell where he came from
- More healing items needed
Overall I give this game a solid 6/10
I think it should be priced around $5

Great survival/psychological horror title. Indie devs can often do it way more effectively than the big names, and this is a good example of that. Plenty of challenge, even on easier settings, and the incessant movements of "the boy" will keep you tense for sure. But, most importantly imo, is the way the story terrifies through REAL LIFE tragedy. Man this one hits hard in that regard, more effectively than anything supernatural.

Definitely recommend this game. I was fortunate enough to play the demo last year and have been waiting for the full game to drop! The controls are simple to learn, and while the combat does take some getting used to, once you figure it out it makes the game more even enjoyable. The whole aura and ambiance of the game kept me on edge for my entire play through!
Well done!

Enjoyable title. Could use some quality of life with maybe keys saying what door they are for as a small hint because the areas in this game are huge. You are going to be doing a lot of walking around and interacting with doors you are unable to open. Would have loved it a lot more if the areas were smaller and more streamlined for example the walk to the final boss is long for no reason, you can barely see anything and nothing of interest happens. Or you are going from 1 house to find a note about a certain area, go to that area for the key to that house...walk back. This takes a long time and literally nothing happens aside from the usual enemy 'stalking' you. It felt like padding. Maybe it is to build up tension but it just made me yawn as it was just another long walk. Game is able to distinguish itself from a lot of other 3D horror games with its story which was enjoyable and the weapon mechanic felt new. For that reason I will give it a rec, pick it up on a sale.

I usually don't write reviews, but this game was too good not to write about.
First off, this game was written and developed by one person and looks/plays better than most indie horror titles out there! The story was so brutal, it left my audience of my stream and myself speechless after finding out what REALLY happened, it's so messed up in the best way possible! Normal difficulty was pretty difficult on it's own and when I tried to do the harder difficulties, I couldn't believe that some of the survivability features were not available making it almost impossible to beat! You can see that in the Achievements, no one has beat DEMENTED difficulty yet. Lastly, I want to thank the Developer, Randy, for coming by my stream and watching my whole play through/reactions which I feel he enjoyed. I look forward to checking out your future games that he develops. I recommend this game for sure to any horror fan that likes great graphics, a brutal story and likes a challenge!
