It looks for newborns or next of kinFEATURES

I absolutely love the first 5 chapters of this game. It reminds me a lot of Boogeyman or Five Nights at Freddy's but it doesn't feel like a cheap knockoff - it feels like it's own thing and I feel like that's important. It's genuinely terrifying and tense in all the right ways and I was having a blast playing it.
Unfortunately, once you hit Chapter 6 things go from fantastic to extremely unfair. Allow me to explain and expand on that a little. The games mechanics require you to take a specific action for the sounds that you are hearing. Different sounds require different actions. In Chapter 6, you will often have 3 conflicting things happen at the exact same time. It would be alright if they all happen a second apart or something but that's not how it happens. You will literally have 3 or 4 things happen at EXACTLY the same moment. When the game requires you to stand for one thing, sit for another, hold a bear, close your eyes, keep your eyes open, turn on the music box, etc. and you have conflicting things (sit/stand, close eyes/keep eyes open) happening at the same time, it's impossible to do both. You have to choose one thing to do and hope you don't die. It's completely insane and I can't believe they didn't think through this a little better.
Now, it probably sounds like I'm giving a bad review here and maybe I should. But I had enough fun with the first five chapters to give this a good review. In my opinion, a very large portion of the game is good and worth your time and money. I just hope they tweak the sixth chapter because it's not very fun or scary - it's just frustrating. My very first death in the game happened in Chapter 6 and instead of being scared, I was angry. I couldn't do anything about it. There was nothing I could have done to prevent it. Cheap deaths are not fun. They don't add anything of value to video games in my opinion.
However, if you're a pro at these kinds of games then maybe you won't have any trouble with it. Either way, I think it's worth a buy. I started a series on Youtube (it's still uploading as we speak) so if you like you can watch those and decide for yourselves if this is something you might like:

This game is short, sweet, and simple in concept and gameplay. However, none of that makes it bad. To the contrary, I think the game is at a fine length for the amount of variety accounted for in this game.
The game itself is split itself two halves. I refer to them as the story and game halves. The story half is what you start on and need to complete before progressing to the game halves. These are small areas of free roaming where to collect notes and look over objects to get clues as to what actually happens during the game half. The game half is where the gameplay happens, naturally. If one had to compare the gameplay to something, it reminds me of Boogeyman. You must do certain actions dependent upon the sound prompt you're presented with.
I only died once during the entire game, hence my low playtime. Due to such playtime, I would recommend getting the game for <$4.99 at best. I personally got the game for ~$3.

This is an 'Eh' game. It definitely gives off a FNAF vibe, but has it's own appeal. Lots of repetitive tasks based off of sounds/environmental actions. I don't find it very scary, but the atmosphere gets tense. Between the sounds and the "OMG, bar fill up already!" my leg was bouncing through a lot of this game. Like FNAF, if you mess up something pops up in your face with a loud noise to try and jumpscare you. The story (if you can call it that?) is vague. Maybe you're getting possessed by something? I'm still not sure, even after reading all the notes. I mean, if you're a fan of FNAF, maybe pick it up on sale? I liked it enough to finish it. But, I picked it up on sale and I'd feel kinda icky if I paid full price for it.

Short but gold. You were child before ages... You scared of shadow or some noises. The game based this events. I liked it. Total 13 episodes. 7 of 13 episodes you will search notes and you understand the story. 6 of 13 episodes you try to sleep with guide. Really harder to last episodes.
