This is my first ever review, I have played many horror games in nearly 30 years. Different kinds, jump scare oriented, thriller, psychological, survival and even atmospheric. Atmospheric is arguably the best of the bunch. I have only completed one chapter in 2.9 hours at the time of this review and I can honestly say that visage's sound design, level design and atmosphere for a non triple A Developer is.........well insanely good. I do not find many games that manage to scare me consistently, i have been jumped scared before, I have been spooked but visage has managed to not only scare me from wanting to continue further and find alternative routes but it has also managed to consistently give me chills down my spine and the last time i felt this way, was probably when i was very young. Visage starts by wasting no time in giving you question's with a very depictive intro and then throwing you into the house not only to hear constant creaks and footsteps but it uses it so well that sometimes you begin to get in your own head questioning whether you actually just heard it or not. There are several chapters, exploration is key and you have to be brave enough to continue down the beaten path that you otherwise wont wanna take. Visage is also really good at taking what id call a slower paced horror game and not leaving very much dead end room, there is always something going on in the house as you explore and the more you progress and backtrack the more events unfold and stuff from previous chapters will carry over into the house. One of the best pro's about this game is visage does not give you enough comfort or items to allow you to feel at home in the house despite the candles laying around and what not, your lighters run out and the game will take away from you the only item's and or mechanics that would otherwise make you feel safe like flipping light switches and such. Overall visage is arguably one of the best horror games i have played in a long time in overall quality, it doesn't rely on cheap jump scares, thrills of a chase or any one and done mechanics, it uses everything at its disposal to make sure you feel completely trapped in despair. Your character also has sanity so when that goes away, the house will start having more paranormal events. I don't need to finish this game to tell you that if you're looking for a game that keeps you on your toes and does it so well to the point you question everything, then visage is your go to game. I don't often find games that in my opinion I find to be worth remembering, there's a lot of the same stuff out there. Visage has earned the right to be my first review and i believe to those that look for something worth while, visage is what you're looking for. This is how i see it, jump scares are great, then they become redundant. When a game can cause you to have anxiety and not want to continue off the atmosphere and sound design alone without the need for an enemy yet and then throw everything else in at a certain pace causing massive panic, that is true horror and this is what visage is. A coma inducing fear fest that builds tension and atmosphere out the gate with a lot of attention to detail. Congrats to the developers, you know what you're doing and I hope ya'll will carry this over to other games. The game is also very well Optimized.

Step 1) Being bored at night.
Step 2) Start Visage.
Step 3) Play Visage for 4 hours.
Step 4) Turn off your PC.
Step 5) Hold a flashlight pointing to your closed room door untill morning, because trust me, you won't be able to sleep after such experience.

Pretty scary horror game that tells a story of several family members. The atmosphere is great and a lot of play is with the light and dark, dark being your enemy so you always have to use your trusty lighter or a flashlight. The house also plays with you a bit and you will often see lights switched off or other spooky phenomena. The game is divided into three distinct chapters, each telling the story of one person and with a different playstyle. Overall I found it enjoyable, although sometimes you are left a bit in the dark as to what to do, but it's never too annoying. Good for fans of the genre.

I've been playing this on and off for four years now and have yet to beat it because it's the scariest, most stressful game I've ever played.This game has turned me into a bitch, I've never had this issue with horror games before. 10/10

True horror experience with no hand holding.
Play this game in the dark on your own in a quiet room if you like warm pants.
