Uventa Reviews

Creepy atmosphere with the odd tense moment of hiding, sound design is okay except that cheesy dialogue. The game is very short and involves running around an abandoned school. There are hidden coins and stamps/cards well hidden throughout the school. The ending was a let down but this game is still decent for the price.

Ive played better for less money. Has potential to be a great game if the right improvements are made. The old school idea is creepy and neat. Overall: 35.1/100 Atmosphere and First impression: Scary Atmosphere, good, interesting first impression 7.4/10 Storyline: Decent 7.2/10 Controls: 2.1/10 Basic PC, werent worked out well when compared to gameplay and no controller capabilities Gameplay: - Running: 3.8/10 Fast but hard to control with PC because of default sensitivity - Jumping: 0/10 Didnt seem to work for me, maybe a glitch? - No good hints on when and wear to hide. Run away aimlessly? Lol 0.1/10 - Crouch: 0.9/10 Doesnt allow you to crouch under or beside/behind anything to hide. - Enemy Encounters: 1.1/10 Not very well created. Glitchy swings with his weapon. Cannot fight (to me this is always good in a horror genre), but!! This sucks if your controls are under average... AND... where do you hide if crouch doesnt allow you to hide anywhere in the school (under desks, beh? Find a random locker. I only seen one throughout the whole building that allowed you to hide in it. Environment: 3.5/10 Looks really cool. An abandoned school that is thought to be broken into. But you cant interact with very much. Doors will be clearly open part way and wont open. If you dont get an interact symbol you can do anything. I can understand a locked door but an open door that you cant interact with to walk through? Thats just poorly created. Game Performance: Ran smoothly on my specs but they are higher then average. 9/10

+ It could have been a good idea. + Some of the graphics are pretty good. But not your skin textures. Even on max graphics your skin looks like it was made from Play-Doh clay. - If you have multiple monitors, the game may start on the wrong one. - The same ambient sound plays over and over with a noticeable cut. - The game has an option for English, but it does not work. - The achievements do not work. - The movements are clunky. - I noticed clipping in a wall. You just walk up to it and see the outside of the building when you touch it. - I walked up a fallen bookshelf only to get stuck when I tried to walk back off of it. It required a game restart. And all that I found in the first 45 min or so.

The story is just stale you will get jumpscared the first time but after that it'll be normal again. The game dropped fps couple of times making me restart the whole application to get back to normal. The Puzzles were kind of fun to do but worse of them all is the ending talk about anti-climactic FOR REAL. The achievements don't work too.

Didn't run into any bugs in the little time I played. I can tell that the enemy was going to be a problem. I woke up in the basement and he charge me and I just died. Now if he wanted me dead would't he have killed me at first instead of knocking me out? I'm getting tired of games making me so defenseless. If you don't want to give me a gun then let me be quick or give me more health so I can take more than 1 tap from the enemy. This character is a guard and is as fragile as newborn. My enthusiasm was gone after that.

Despite all the negative reviews, I would like to write a few positives. The game has an interesting atmosphere (which is not based on cheap jumpscares), the graphics are very good, I liked the voices/music very much. I also loved the fact, that the developers have put some much effort in location details - I played the game for nearly 2 hours (altough the game itself is extremely short and can be completed in 30mins), because I really enjoyed admiring all those, real-life Soviet-era posters. Fantastic job! As a polish guy, I would like to Thank the developers for the polish accent in the game - a big smile appeared on my face when I found it. But to be honest, the game also has it flaws. The enemies are blind as bats, and dumb as doorknobs: they seem to have no AI at all, and are very easy to predict and outwit. The (very few) puzzles might be interesting and fun, but are rather simple..well, maybe except the one at the end of the game that requires reading Russian - it took me a while to figure out that I should click on the screen to type something on the keyboard. Also, at some moments the game had problems with optimization: the frame rate was able to drop below (around) 20fps on a GTX 1060, i7-7700 and Win7. I hope that the Devs will fix that someday. If You`re looking for a cheap, one go ("finish once and forget") adventure which has good atmosphere and requires almost no skill to play - this game is definetly worth recommending. If You`re looking for an alpha-high class-premium production, You will surely be dissapointed. Personally, I loved the game. P.S. As for the ending. SERIOUSLY? He had THAT item all the time with him?!

Very atmospheric game. It reminds me on Outlast and Penumbra. You feel the abondance of these old Lost Places in a Post Apocalyptic Area. Graphic, Story, the dark light and sounds are perfect for this scenario. Yes, some small bugs are present, but these are not affect the gameplay negatively. Positive is also, that the game is not too fast. This is good and lets you check out all the places without stress. Combined with this very low price i give it 9/10. I would buy it again and i think i will also play this game again after a couple of time.

It's okay. It's quite rough round the edges but it's just engaging enough to be passable, and for the price you can't really complain. Basically you're a night watchman, looking after a school. You hear what you think are kids messing around and breaking windows and pretty soon you're knocked unconscious and dragged to the basement by a burly man. The basic gameplay is you explore the area, pick up codes and keys, and unlock more of the school. And occasionally there's a section with a burly man that you have to run from. What is odd is that sometimes if you die to them, you respawn exactly where you are, and the man has gone. Takes a bit of the tension and challenge out of the game. Story is a backseat for most of the way and then there's a hilarious 'revelation' at the end which comes completely unearned out of left field and was almost enough to push this to a not recommended. But not quite. Fun for an hour's play or so.

I can't get it to run for 2 minutes without it crashing. Tried multiple things. I wish I could try it out. It looked interesting.

Not good. The controls feel float-y and movement is quite sticky. A lot paths seem to be blocked or too small. The soviet style old abandon school fine. There could've been more details, with the game being as short as it is. This also makes the game atmosphere very weak. The story feels tacked on. Bad people are bad, sure. But what does it have to do with this game? Am I the bad guy? Who are the others?
