The Cursed Ritual Reviews

Laughable... that was the entire experience with this game. The notes you find are like someone writing a "spooky story" for fifth grade English. The environments were pretty for the most part... but there was so many "unfinished" or "out of place" items in the setting. Not to mention the character model for the antagonist REALLY looks out of place when you place them against the backdrop of the game itself (graphically different... so bad it's noticeable). The story has no depth... the character you cannot connect with... and the game itself is so underwhelming and short. I feel like this story that was trying to be told here... would've been received much better had it been told from the perspective of the antagonists "husband". With some good writing... just based off what I got reading through the English homework... that story would've resonated much better.

Played on Linux using Proton Exp, Key Collecting Simulator with game breaking Save Game bug, It's assets but the dev did at least edit the House Map to be different from it's original design, So Graphics/models are okay but you will have seen them before as again it's just assets (How many times do you need to see the same plate of meat balls), Sound is okay, Game play as i said is key collecting sim and some notes to read, that's pretty much all it is. Jump Scares so far have not worked for me as you just seem to know when it's going to happen. And it has a Save and Load Option after pressing 'ESC', I needed to do something so i saved the game, when i came back later to play and loaded my Save it put me in a different room from were i saved and also i was now locked in that room as i did not have the key to unlock this door, Strange thing is i had unlocked this door before i saved and had played about 5 minutes more since opening this room, The Ghost Lady was also just hanging about and doing nothing, So as I'm locked in this room i will have to start all over again and play from the start, to be on the safe side i will have to play from start to end without using saves. So as it's just a Key Collecting Sim and has a Save Game Bug, also not that scary i can not recommend this Game.

This is a new Indian horror game made by a solo developer but the game is just a key collection horror simulator. You collect keys in whole game. Health system does not make sense and your camcorder is never out of battery. There are some good jump scare but mostly game focuses on key collection and opening door with decent story.
