experiment: one Reviews

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZQ6IZCm3hc https://rumble.com/v2gjv1q-experiment-one-horror-game-ending.html I really liked this new horror game. It got me scared good a couple of times lol, there are not many if any puzzles present and you don't really have to do much other than walk, answer the phone (Evelyn works at a Helpline), get scared and run from the shadowy spider creature. There should be more horror games like this, just pure horror with a story and few to none puzzles. The graphics are ok, the story is good, sounds are ok and the atmosphere is really nice. Aside from some movement problems and the fact the it was too dark on some areas everything went smooth and I can't wait for the next part. Congrats to devs!

Fun indie horror game. Really cant beat the price on this one. Has a couple of scares in it. Loved the idea behind it and super excited for the "to be continued." Hope this dev releases more content.

I have to confess upfront, I hate reading a lot of text and here I had to do that a lot. The time I spent reading compared to actually doing something else, like interacting with items was dauntingly lot. Also the translations sometimes made the text hard to understand. The game tries to give the impression of a deeper character design by showing diary pages, but I couldn't piece together anything comprehensible from it other than we are struggling alcoholics. There are serious framedrop issues, especially every time the photocopier starts doing it's thing. Other flickering lights cause lag that makes the slightest mouse turn into a 360 rotation making it impossible to navigate at some parts. I agree with the others, the spider thingy is way too easy to evade, but at least something was happening at that part. The map was just about to get interesting in the end only to see the "to be continued" note and a little "(maybe?)" part in the corresponding achievement. If the game is not finished, then why isn't this marked as "early access"? When will it be finished? Where can we keep track of the development progress? One plus point thought is that it works flawlessly on Linux Mint with proton.

The game is very minimalist with the character design... but the environment looks rather nice. So if you're a graphics gamer... this one may not be completely up to par for you. However... if you're a story driven gamer... then this one may just be something you've overlooked for far too long. The game isn't very long... but the story will have you wrapped up into it so much that you'll forget about the time all together until it's over. There's not any action sequences or anything like that either... this game is purely made to make you feel unsettled... and tell it's story... and it does a very good job at that.

Good idea, bad execution. It is pretty rough around the edges. It performs poorly with a lot of frame rate drops and freezes, the environments are way too dark in some areas, and it has no flow. The one monster stealth area is too easy, as there is no real threat from the monster. The game as a whole is a bit boring and tedious, even if it only takes about 45 minutes to beat. The scene cuts are jarring and nonsensical; they are not smooth or satisfying at all. This also means that the story does not initially make a whole lot of sense, though it does seem to have good potential. The developers were clearly trying to say something here about mental health, and they had some creative ideas to express the topic, but it was just poorly done. I understand that this game was made on a low budget with a small development team, but it honestly seems like a first draft of a game rather than a finished product. I hope the developers learn from this game and continue to get better and better at developing. They have a great idea here, and they clearly intend on continuing this game's story, so hopefully they keep going. I am looking forward to seeing how they improve. If you are looking to buy this game, maybe get it on a sale like I did. Still, you may be better off looking somewhere else for a solid horror experience.
