SCP - The Sentient Box Reviews

Good ARG game but the puzzles are very basic. If you play a lot of ARGs or have even cursory knowledge of basic ciphers, it's extremely easymode. Really good for beginners or if you just want some SCP plot lore. Very quick, only around 3-4h to beat. Worth on sale.

Very entertaining experience, you need to know how to carefully use a search engine to play this amazing video game. The Secure-Contain-Protect games will never fail to spook me, since i am a very timid and easily-scared player. What a great a game, thank you RJ for making this masterpiece and i will follow your account on twitter.

One of the best puzzle games i've played in a while. A shame this game doesn't have more of an audience

I got this game because it was labeled as an SCP game. I don't know if I just don't know the SCP this is based on, or if I didn't get far enough to experience it, but I got to level three before spending 30 minutes on the puzzle and not getting anywhere. I think this game might have been possible to be good, but it honestly just wasn't.

It is a pretty good game, with interesting lore and some fun puzzles. My only issue with it is that it helps you too much. The hints make it too obvious, sometimes they literally tell you exactly how to solve the puzzle. I find it frustrating when the game doesn't give me time to think, especially when that is not an optional feature. I was having fun in the first half of the game, but I got more and more frustrated to the point that I lost interest in the lore and stopped paying attention. I would still recommend it though, but for people who haven't played many games of the like. It is probably a good way to introduce someone to the world of ARGs, but it won't be challenging enough for someone with a bit more experience.

Very creative, good and enjoyable story and gameplay.

It's a really good game but it is way too easy, if you are used to ARGs, you'll get bored with this one. Maybe use it to get someone into ARGs rather than play it by yourself.

Nice game, reminds me of the Black Watchmen and Nite Team 4. I'm going for more of a challenge so my Google-fu will be performed entirely using Lycos. Wish me luck! Devs - if you want to make that its own achievement, be my guest.

Brilliant, makes you feel like you're being watched, the puzzles are interesting and googling things to solve them makes it even more immersive, like I'm actually helping this guy out, easily worth the money they're asking for it and it's so satisfying when you figure out which cipher to use and get the correct answer!

probably not for folks looking for a really difficult and intensive ARG experience, but if you are interested in the types of puzzle-solving that go into ARGs (mostly ciper-decoding but some googling, coordinate finding, etc.) and either relatively new to that or looking for something simpler to pass the time between tougher ARGs, this is a fun little game! around 3-4 hours of content if you pay attention to the story, which was fine! i enjoyed what i got out of it for a couple bucks to cool off from work.
