Witch Hunt is a challenging horror themed hunting game that takes place in the 18th century. Main focus of the game is on exploration, non-linearity, and atmosphere. Witch Hunt features lite RPG elements in form of a financial system and a skill system. You play as a witch hunter who took the task of eliminating all evil that settled in the woods near the town of Bellville. To achieve your goals, you'll be able to use weapons, magic, and other tools that can be found and bought. Warning: Hunting requires patience and perseverance. If it's not your strongest qualities you may find this game to be very frustrating.

This is a brutal, challenging game. No forgiveness. However, something is enticing about it. It is an Indie game.
You play a witch hunter, tracking down various demons, zombies, and a central monster that has been causing deaths outside the proper and central town. Upgrades are available, but you must search long and hard for money/treasure. Money is scarce in the game, making you choose carefully the vendor items such as silver mullets, etc.
The atmosphere of this game is downright creepy. It appears to be winter as there are no leaves on the trees. You never know what is hidden right around the corner, causing you to react to strange sounds and murky visuals.
There is no music in the game, only creepy sound effects from the various creatures,/
The weapons you have are an old musket rifle, a handgun, and a saber-like sword.
While I don't recommend the game to just anybody, I do recommend it if you like puzzling FPS games that you can play late at night. :-)

Let me preface this review by saying, if you don't like the idea of spending 30 minutes looking for a monster only to hit it maybe twice before it runs and forces you to track it again, you probably won't like this game. I however appreciate the authentic feeling hunting that Witch Hunt provides. That along with the amazing classically spooky atmosphere and boatload of secrets and loot to find makes this a solid recommend from me. Proof that a game doesn't need to be a 10/10 cinematic masterpiece to be one worth playing.

Came because of the Newgrounds veterans and Smiling Friends Co-Creator. Stayed for the gameplay.

PS: (only 2 hours into this game as of now but I’m pretty sure I have my rating)
1. if you don’t have the following things do not get this game:
A long attention span
Hours and hours of time to spend
a basic or good ability to handle basic level horror aspects(jumpscares, silence, eerie noises)
Now that the basics are outta the way.
THIS GAME IS SO COOL
A small indie developer took a basic concept we all know: hunting
Alright. But. We don’t get assault rifles, bolt actions, none of that. Musket and flintlock. That’s all you get.
There is some hints or clues and stuff you can buy from the shop but this game is cruel.
It is like a silent dagger that hurts. No free bees. No assistance. You. A monster. A rifle. And a forest. A change of pace in horror games that I’m addicted to. Not insanely difficult. Just requires patience. Good timing. And sharp thinking. 9/10
