[h1] An Atrocious Mess [/h1]
[b] Not a good game. Not a good game at all. Decent sound design is the only good thing in this game. Everything else is just bad. From clunky controls (no customization) to murky graphics (with ulgy green filters the game looks even worse) to boring , confusing and uninspired story and level design. I guess i was expecting too much from this Unity asset flipper. After barely completing Chapter 1 , which gave me a nice headache , i thought , maybe next chapters will be more engaging and rewarding. But NO. In the middle of Chapter 2 this "game" hit me with a nice slew of flashing/strobe effects and a shaking screen which was so nice for my eyes (I'm not and epileptic but it was bad nonetheless and they didn't put an epilepsy warning in this game , so BEWARE). Maybe there is a decent game somewhere deep within but i didn't have no time nor passion to search for it. Although i spent some additional time to collect 3 trading cards and that was my last action here.
There are better (and cheaper) horror games. There are better psychological horror games. Don't buy this game even with a huge discount. Avoid this game like the plague ! [/b]

An interesting idea and implementation, but such a huge bunch of indicators that need to be monitored at the same time seems to me to be too much, although you gradually get used to it
