Creeping Terror Reviews

I like the game so far, everything is fine when I shifted to control the character with the D-Pad and using the Analog to select items in the menu, the UI for the items and the lower menu is a tad jank as every time I pick up and item it just shifts to whatever section of the item I pick (consumable, doc, keys) and I have to navigate back to the map to keep the map on, I recommend the game for clock tower hard core players like my self, Bob is a chad, but creepy, still a chad...but creepy.

A classic work that many games will likely reference. The protagonist's limited combat abilities give off a horror atmosphere. The balance of the puzzles is just right, not too difficult. The game was originally released for the 3DS, so dual-screen display is unthinkable in games these days, but it's a good game.

While i enjoyed the roughly 30 Minutes of Gameplay i had, in the end i requested my Refund for this Game. Mainly because it felt like playing a 3DS Game on an Emulator. Which in the End was just exactly that. For myself i figured i get a better experience by playing it on the Console it was intented to: the 3DS. The Game itself gives of a good creepy atmoshphere and im looking forward to it playing it when my Copy arrives. I for myself cant recommend the Game as it is for PC.

This game is a nice throwback to the original Clock Tower game, from the multiple endings, vague plot, hiding mechanic, although it fell short in catching up to all the former's aspects, but in the general essence it's done a mostly good job. When comparing to the original Clock Tower, which has a lot of creative usages in the hiding mechanic where you could actually fend off the villain, the game's hiding mechanic is extremely barebone, with an even lazier single frame hiding animation, but for the other aspects the game did a competence job for a very low budget title, the sounds design and especially the musics are greats, and create a capable tension, the graphic style for a side-scroller is well-done and charming to look at even if simplistic. The plot is barebone, with nothing really explained but you did get some bit and pieces to pierce together an interpretation, though when compared to Clock Tower is pretty uninteresting and uninspiring, though at least it does its job for a simple horror game. Overall, this is a decent love-letter to the original Clock Tower game, that I'm confident that anyone that is a fan of would be able to get enjoyment out of it, and for the already low price especially when on sale, it definitely worth getting.

It's telling when you finish a game and the first thing you think after beating it is: "Ahh Finally!" A thought that I couldn't help having after crossing the metaphorical finish line of Creeping Terror's story, and honestly I don't even know why I bought this game looking now at the screenshots. What is [i] CLEARLY [/i] a 3DS port, Creeping Terror is also a mediocre at best survival horror game that does nothing new and nothing well. I take most issue with the port job here, a 3DS title lazily adapted to "run" on a PC at the resolution of a 3DS. What was even the point of porting it to PC if PC players can expect the same visuals that a handheld system can render? There is a point at the end when you and your friends are escaping and a cutscene is playing, and since the bottom screen isn't needed anymore it disappears and makes room for the top screen, the top screen then almost fills my monitor and I'm left thinking: "Why couldn't it have been like this the whole game?" You push "C" to open your inventory and that pauses the action, the inventory screen could just take over until you exit out. But no, instead we get a tiny resolution screen of the characters and exploration bits up top. and the inventory that can't be manipulated until it's "opened" on an even smaller resolution screen on the bottom. The moment to moment gameplay is also underwhelming, as, after the first 20 minutes or so, you have played the whole game. Walk around and find where the next story part is, run away and hide while being chased sometimes, turn your flashlight on while running to avoid falling over, find keys to open doors, and mash "enter" when caught to not die. Do that for 2 hours and you win! A kiddy pool is shallow, Creeping Terror is paper thin. I won't rag on the visuals of this game too much as it appears to have been done on a budget, but the characters look like they've been animated in flash and move very stilted. I do enjoy making Arisa, our protagonist, trip on rocks over and over again. Mostly because she lands face first and doesn't brace herself with her arms at all, I also take no damage if I'm not being chased, Maybe I'm a sadist but I found it stupid funny. The story could best be described as "standard" as far as survival horror goes, some cues seem to have been taken from the old Clocktower games but this doesn't have anything I could get invested in. If you really want to play this buy it for 3DS, the Steam port is pointless don't play it here.

Mom can we have clock tower ? No there is clock tower at home Clock tower at home : I really enjoy my time with this game actually, it's a short game with exploration and multiple ending. Sadly the port is really bare bones, they don't even bother change how the screen look.

The game is decent, I enjoy my time playing it. The game doesn't contain any real puzzle or complex hiding mechanics, and the plot itself is kind of like a B-Movie horror, if that turns you off then I say stay away. But if you want to enjoy something short, and a horror game kinda similar to Clock Tower then maybe you'll enjoy it too.... maybe.

its a great succesor to Clock Tower ish game but just go play it on the 3DS or a 3ds emulator, the game literally isnt made to be played on a PC, this is literally a BAD PORT, i really want people to support this game i really do but i really cant recommended it on Steam On 3DS 8.5/10 On PC 2/10

The good: -Its cheap, really cheap when on sale -Multiple endings -Lots of files to collect -Only a few hours long so doesn't overstay its welcome The bad: -Controls can be a little slow to respond at times -The story is only really fleshed out through the files so its quite important to try to actively collect them all I played using an Xbox One controller and didn't have any issues with controls and the second screen like others did, It's definitely worth playing if you're a fan of clocktower / RPG maker horror games.

I'm really enjoying the game so far. It's a side scrolling, horror game, with clock toweresque hiding mechanics. Its a port from a 3DS game, so you will have a whole window showcasing both your image screen and the bottom options/inv screens. But I could easily get past all that, simply because i didnt wanna play on my 3DS. You will have to expand your window size, to fit your screen, but for those who are use to pixel horror games, or pixel games in general on steam, this will be no problem to do. I picked up this game, bc i love everything to do with surivival horror and so far, its great! Will edit my review again, once completed, if I find anything glaring. \o/
