Perception

Awesome gameplay idea. The visuals of this game are really something special. As a person uniquely concerned with games that put you in the shoes of another person, especially when hat person is differently abled than you, this game is a piece of living art.

It reminds me of a similar game, dark echo or beyond eyes, something about using sound to navigate the environment is pretty exciting. It was the coolest mechanic i've seen, but it didn't necessarily live up to that, it's still nice, and the fact that the one thing that can kill you plays as if it's also blind is very nice, both of you use sound to navigate, and sometimes, it could be sitting next to you, or hear you from across the hallway.

Scary and fun. This game has a very unique concept and I think they did it well. I will say it is a bit short so I would recommend to get it on sale.

It took me about 5 hours to beat the game. I did not get all the achievements. I am not sure how I missed all of the achievements. I felt like I explored every each of the game. Clearly I missed a lot.

You see by tapping you cane, however, that alerts the presence in the house as well. It's different, however, it's enjoyable.

This game makes for a unique and interesting bite-sized horror experience. The concept of playing through the perspective of a blind person in a haunted house is absolutely genius, and I think it was executed as well as it could have been. The mechanics are on point, limiting your vision enough to enhance the fear factor while still giving you the tools needed to navigate adequately. It CAN get confusing at times, but thankfully the game implements a waypoint system that points you to the very general direction of your next objective.

My critisims are few and minor:
-The voice acting of the protagonist, while very good and believable, is a bit distracting. I personally would have preffered to play as a silent or mostly silent protagonist, but that's very subjective.
-I also didn't like that we see the silhouette of the primary monster. For a game that prides itself in limiting visual information to the player, we get too good a look at the primary monster and it's really not that scary a design in my opinion. I think it would have been scarier if it were more like Bird Box in that we never actually see what it looks like and use sound design to imply when it finds you, except maybe in the end sequence.

Will it scare you?
There are a few jumpscares, but nothing like a goofy looking face jumping in front of you and yelling "ooga-booga!" The sound design is masterfully crafted to make the atmosphere feel realistic despite not seeing much of it. This all helps to immerse the player and make them feel like they're in danger. As mentioned before, I didn't find the actual design of the primary monster to be that scary, but the dread of knowing it's there is what really supplied the fear factor for me.

Overall, great game. 8/10, legitimately scary to those who can get immersed in the atmosphere. Due to the factor of limited vision, you probably won't want to play more than once, but it's absolutely worth a try.

Great game! A unique walking simulator with minimal visuals and good (sometimes overly loud) sound. Very original.

Best witch hunting simulator.
