Inside: Before Birth Reviews

DONT GET THIS GAME!!! Its litterlay less than 20 minutes and we dont even know if thats the ending or not so just dont get it.

The idea is good but I cannot really recommend at the price. If it were .99c or better, free! Then I would say its good. The look and feel are nice, just needs polish. Not sure if there is replayability or not but it seems like maybe? I played it once, took about 30mins as others have said. I wanted to like it enough to say its worth a purchase but its not. Worth a play, yes, especially if this is up your alley just not the money. Good game, do not get me wrong https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udAG4L14yj0

Logged in, immediately enjoyed how sluggish I moved and saw a ghost after I found my first key, opened several rooms that look exactly the same, another door opened...another hallways of the same shit, another jump scare ghost. I proceeded to the end of this hallway which looks the same as the first and second, each room as the word \"CLOSE\" written in red, in various locations. this was a real plus since I enjoy seeing the word and wonder which variation of it they mean. At the end of this hallway, I saw Matthew \"Tiny\" McGrory from the Devils Rejects (RIP), standing behind another door which is locked from the opposite side and I need to figure out how to open it. Then alas it came to me, I dont need to figure out jack shit, EXIT GAME

I did pay for this game. This game isn't even finished!!! To pay 3.99 for it is a total rip off. When you get out of the tiny room you can't go any further than a hallway. Everything is horribly glitchy! you stand as tall as a giant and you crouch in a way that feels as though the perspective is what you would be if you were walking normally. What a rip off....

More cynically lazy horror game fare on Steam. Any sense of immersion this game could have invoked is immediately ruined by lazy and incompetent game design. Environments are composed of a few store bought assets that repeat ad nauseam. There are several proximity based "scares" that can be repeated over and over again because the developer was too inept to remove the triggers afterward. Movement feels awkward and stiff with interactions that fail to initially register. The story is laughably short, more akin to a demo than a fully released product and has no business charging any amount of money in it's current state. Inside Before Birth wasn't worth the developer's time and effort, so don't waste yours either.

Embarrassingly bad. They took a map that would take 2 minutes to walk through and artificially extended it to 30 minutes by locking doors and making you look for keys in a ton of identical rooms over and over again. But if you like walking it's pretty great.

If I could actually return this and get my money back I would give it to whoever could make any sense of this buggy 20 minutes jump scare demo... EDIT: Yes, I actually learned how to refund games that were not bought too long ago here, and in time! Thanks again to everyone, very nice community. :)

Yet another 20-ish minute cash-grab jump scare key fetch quest "horror" game. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your money on this.

It's the same amateurish tour of a dilapidated medical facility that you must have frittered away thirty minutes of your life on a good half dozen times by now if you follow the ever-deepening landfill of cack that is Steam's horror category with any regularity. At least this one has the borderline decency to pass on charging you $10 for the privilege. Book-ended by a text card for an introduction and some monotone cartoon stills for an ending, forgoing even the formality of a title screen, you can't really yell at [b]Inside: Before Birth[/b] for having a lazy plot because that's really like yelling at a monkey for not having wings. The plot, the gameplay, the tension, it was [i]never going to be there[/i]. It's a school project that somebody's misplaced pride led them to sell on Steam, rather than just submit as coursework. What can I say? I feel like I should be rounding these horror games up by the dozen lately and branding them all with the same review. Ignore. Walk away. It is worth no moneys and so to spend any on it would only contribute to a deep remorse that may well eventually place you at the bottom of a ravine. Why take the risk, eh? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnwzYAVn3_U

Just not that good.... - Really short (took me 35 minutes to complete, and that's with me being lost and backtracking a lot). - Ending was very abrupt, and underwhelming. Just as it was building up again, it stopped with a silent video. - Majority of the rooms are the same, and have no reason for you to enter. + Had a couple creepy moments. + Interesting stair section. Neverending, but only ever have to go up one flight to get back to the main level. Freaked me out. + Good audio. Really set the atmosphere.
