Rise of Insanity

Fantastic little horror game!
Good gameplay, the story was interesting, the music was really nice. Loved everything about it!
The scares were also very spaced out and not overdone like some horror games are.
Great game. Short and sweet. 🖤

this game wasn't what i expected it to be but while there was some disappointment it didn't ruin my day.
they did not reinvent the wheel with this game but compared to the many other "indie" games in the horror genre this one is actually worth playing and an honest effort to deliver a worthy experience.
graphics are decent and the story is not bad but...
well i guessed the whole story and the final plot twist within the first 5 minutes of playing. while i would like to take all the credit for that achievement the developers really didn't hide the clues all that well.
scares are decent and the developers didn't throw literally every cheap jump scare in the book at the player. just some...
while most other indie horror games are plain cheap & stupid this game is in fact one of the better & scarier ones.
it took 2.5 hours to finish the game (ocd-grade exploration) plus some extra time for 100% achievements.
not a great game but not bad either. recently i have played a lot of indie horror games WAY worse than this one.
get it cheap when it's on sale if horror is your genre.

Very good psychological thriller. Quite short however. Some amazing use of effects throughout though. Well worth picking up at the right price.

I just picked the game up recently and am enjoying it quite a bit.
Does it give the player a sense of progression?
For me it does. You have objectives which come up as you explore the area where the story unveils itself and your progress is always saved so there is no worry about repeating things due to having to quit the game at a moment's notice.
Is the story interesting?
Its keeping me in the game as the world tells its story as i explore. Am a big horror and b-movie fan so take that into account. Horrible for some can be paradise for me :)
Does it offer any puzzles (such as the ones in Amnesia for example)?
Not really. It is pretty much finding keys or triggering events by exploration. So far it does not feel insulting and the pacing is well done.
How's the optimization?
Am playing on a i7 8770, 16gb of ram with a RTX 2060 6gb vram video card. Everything is running at max setting with no issues and i have yet to crash.
I think the jump scares are properly paced between the quiet exploration moments and the wtf was that. There are plenty of them but for me they don't feel shallow or just there for the sake of being there.
RISE OF INSANITY, BUY IT! PLAY IT! Feel the terror of all normality leaving YOUR MIND! YOUR LIFE! as a morbid morally putrid oozing madness takes hold transfiguring your reality into a NIGHTMARE BEYOND BELIEF! BEYOND REDEMPTION!!! AiiiEEEEGH!!!

Very nice psychological horror point&click. Heavy immersive atmosphere and jumpscares that really caught me off guard. Interesting story, quite complex, you need to carefully read every note. ~3h to finish with 100% achievements. This indie thriller deserves a chance from any horror game fan. Recommended!

A great story about mental illness. Dark, interesting, beautiful and a nice mix of searching for items to collect and articles to read as you play.
This game takes around 1.5 -2hours to complete. Even tho it's a great game I wouldn't spend 10€ for that game time.
100% achievements done easily during one gameplay.

Surprising ending game that looks a lot like Layers of Fear.
Lacks in complex puzzles (which is good for some people who doesn't like it) and is very beautiful. It's more like an experience than a game, though it's very interesting to play.
