Rise of Insanity

Psychological horror focused on exploration, with a few jumpscares, a few very simple puzzles, good graphics, creepy vibe and interesting albeit cliche story. Reminds me of Layers of Fear but with less interactions, puzzles and achievements. It's also much shorter. I think the price is decent for the amount of content and quality. Overall a good game in the genre.
Some people reported some issues in discussions like bugs and glitches, but there doesn't seem to be any major problems. I personally didn't find any during playthrough.
It can be played with VR set, but I don't have one so I can't say anything about this feature.

Nice little game. Graphics aren't the greatest, but the setting and decor is done very well. The atmosphere is well created and the story unravels in an unusual way, just as your own mental state is both unravelling and coming to the conclusions it needs to reach. Unfortunately both the text and the voice acting are a little stilted and contain numerous spelling/grammatical errors, to the point that it often feels rushed or poorly translated into English. But that's definitely its biggest failing, as the rest of the game is very much enjoyable. Took me less than 2 hours to play. Wish it were longer! 7/10

This game has its moments, but ultimately it’s a mixed bag of highs and lows.
Starting with the positives, the environment design initially impressed me. The early sections were thoughtfully crafted but later things stated making a little less sense. Additionally, the lower-quality models became increasingly noticeable in the brighter sections of the game. What might have been acceptable in dimly lit environments felt jarring under direct light, pulling me out of the experience, specifically when you are in the garden.
The sound design was really good. The ambience throughout the game was consistently strong, adding a lot to the atmosphere. It kept me engaged even during slower sections where not much was happening. The inclusion of a well-chosen ending song was a nice touch that provided a satisfying close to the audio experience.
Unfortunately, the story and translation leave much to be desired. Despite being fully voiced in English, many parts of the narrative were almost incomprehensible due to poor translation. This was particularly frustrating because these moments were some of the most pivotal in the game, and they completely broke the immersion. It’s difficult to stay invested in a story that often makes little sense. I wont say anything about the story itself as the issues I had could just be because of the issues with the translation.
At $12 CAD its really not worth a buy, but at the 80% discount its an okay way to burn 2 hours. Also while I didn't use it the inclusion of VR is always a plus.
TL;DR: While the game has its strengths in ambience and audio design, its inconsistent environment quality, glaring texture issues, and incomprehensible story hold it back significantly. If you value atmosphere over narrative cohesion, you might find some enjoyment here, but for most players, this game will likely feel more frustrating than fun.

Rise of insanity is the kind of horror game i apprechiate: no running from creatures, no survival or shooting elements, no pressure to continue onwards. Just atmosphere, exploration and story.
It might not be the best horror game of this kind, there are certainly ones that manage to pull you in more and that have an even more chilling atmosphere but rise of insanity was 90 minutes of entertainment and fun exploration. I liked the map, the notes and letters, the collectibles and the story -while somewhat basic- was still told in a very nice manner.
The achievements are very forgiving, which is nice, i got most of them in my first playthrough.
One run was about 75 minutes. I don't think that the game is worth the full price but on sale i'd definitely say give it a try. :)

despite the fps drops, i rlly liked this game even tho i felt like it was too short and could've been a little longer

A straightforward but interesting horror game heavily influenced by Layers of Fear, and that's no bad thing. It kept me entertained and chilled all the way through, with some great jump scares and a mind-bending story.
It'd be fine like that, except it's also Steam VR-compatible! I played the whole game in VR via Steam Link on Meta Quest 3 and it greatly enhanced the experience.

Pretty neat game.
The story is nicely written. 
The soundtrack is good.
It's graphically fabulous (except the white dream sequences).
Some effects looked very cool, although others were kinda weird.
And the horror ambiance wasn't all that bad, but the key spook factor were cheap jumpscares. They did work on me though.
