I really enjoyed this one. The autopsy's were really detailed and the stories behind each one were incredibly interesting to work out. The characters storyline was interesting and I really liked how he slowly falls into insanity. The ending I'm not too sure on tbh I feel like there is an ending I'm missing.

Pros:
+ The bodies & autopsy's are incredibly detailed
+ The story of each body & the main character are both quite interesting and keep you hooked
+ The voice acting was perfect especially over the slow decent into madness
+ I feel like there could have been more horror elements but what there was was still good and keep you creeped out throughout the game
+ I really liked that the character walks you through the autopsy each time because it give you a detailed view of each type of corpse. There is also an autopsy only mode coming soon so that could be interesting too
+ The streamer friendly mode worked really well, although I still managed to show the boobs on this steam page

Cons:
- Honestly felt like there could have been more horror, especially with the bodies

I've read reviews on this and even though I had a review copy of the game I didn't come across any bugs at all but also no one explains what the bugs were. Anyway I definitely recommend this especially knowing there is an autopsy only mode coming soon.

Really great with friends, especially ones who don't understand that they shouldn't run towards Lunch Lady.

Pros:
+ Great with friends and pretty interesting solo
+ Decent amount of maps and they are all have pretty different layouts
+ Mechanics are simple but good
+ Lunch Lady is actually quite scary when she gets close or you are cornered

Cons:
- Not really any story, it would be interesting if there was a note to find each level to get a bit of backstory on the Lunch Lady
- The last page takes way too long to spawn in on some maps, it took us 20-30 minutes to find it once in a spot we checked multiple times.

The game had a great concept but pretty much every aspect of the game sucked, it could be fixed but there is a lot of work to be done. The ending of the game was also horrible, abrupt and didn't go anywhere.

Pros:
+ The graphics look good
+ The gameplay is really eerie
+ Story was interesting for the first half
+ The aliens were incredibly creepy

Cons:
- Stealth mechanic is almost not needed because there aren't enough aliens
- Enough bullets to kill almost every alien
- Voice acting / dialogue was great
- Stamina is horrible, apparently they fixed it but it is still really bad
- There is an incredibly small circle on the cross heir, took me half the game to realize that was the stamina bar
- It's probably a 30 minute game with the amount of actual content in it
- Barely any game direction, there were lanterns around but they were only useful for the enclosed areas
- $36.50 AUD is a horrible price point for under 2 hours of gameplay

I can easily recommend this. It's basically Devour which is one of my favourite coop horror games, same mechanics just different skin. Looks like the devs are still working on this so there is more to come.

Pros:
+ Good graphics
+ Really good map, size and mansion layout
+ Monster is terrifying when he gets fast
+ Mechanics are simple but make for a fun experience when adding the horror
+ Map has traps to let monster know where you are

Cons:
- Don't know if items are randomly generated but most of the items spawned at the top two floors of the mansion and not really anywhere else

First things first, this is a jumpscare try not to scream challenge I don't know why people waste their money if they just gonna complain about the obvious. For what it is this game is decent, it of course needs work but at the moment everything is there and there is a lot to explore already.

You need to go into this thinking its a challenge to not scream, calibrate your mic and I heavily recommend going to the homestead it's bloody terrifying.

And yes I died multiple times to my phone going off or me chuckling to the chat, made the game more entertaining though

Pros:
+ The game has an insane amount of different scares which they can easily add to and add more fears
+ Even as an Aussie those spiders almost got me
+ Some locations have decent unique jumpscares
+ The ambiance of the forest is done really well, there is more than just jumpscares out there
+ Easy room for making more areas
+ Even if you do beat the game you can jump back in to see different locations

Cons:
- Game isn't optimized well, this game is apparently too heavy for recording and streaming at the same time
- Needs to be a bit more settings, not just High or Low
- Maybe a stat list, how many times survived or failed, average play time

For the Future:
+ Definitely add more locations with location based scares, if there are more places like the homestead it would really add to the gameplay
+ Twitch integration, my chat loved trying to scare me with my audio redeemables

I'm not gonna write one of my full reviews for this one it really doesn't need it.

First off the idea of this is really good and the fact they have a slenderman map is also a win but that's it. As the monster you can walk up to players press "E" and they die, they have no way to fight back. This alone makes the game unplayable, the devs just need to have the mechanic from the previous game and it would probably make this playable.

This is a fantastic sequel! The gameplay is still incredibly fun to run through, especially with a shiv or shotgun. The look and lighting are so nice, in moments you are terrified cos you only have a little light and monster are hiding around each corner and in other moments you are dodging fiery bullets in the dark. I can't wait to play more of this!

Pros:
+ interesting story that kept me wanting to go back to the hub after each mission
+ Gunplay is so fun whether you are running with a shiv or any gun
+ decent amount of enemies
+ So far all levels were all really well layed out
+ secrets throughout the levels
+ some quite scary moments, especially the first level
+ the lighting really adds to the game, I would suggest turning off the flashlight because the lights throughout create a very errie feeling
+ it has plenty of upgrades, I got through the game without needing any

Cons:
- game might be a bit too easy, I finished it with all the base weapons easily on normal and it's also pretty doable on the hardest difficulty

This one was quite stressful and scary, i managed to get to hour 5 before giving up, I may try again one day.

Pros:
+ Decent gameplay and mechanics overall
+ Intriguing story
+ Really creepy creatures especially when they show up at the window you are closing
+ Tense gameplay similar to FNAF
+ Great price
+ Halloween lvl coming soon?

Cons:
- The voice over is horrible, it kinda works with the game style but it's still not great
- The generator codes are incredibly hard to find or none existent
- The sleepiness mechanic is quite painful, as you fix yourself from it you are left disorientated in an already tense game

This game is fantastic through and through! There are so many little added details to the underwater life as well as the perfect underwater audio. The fighting was definitely a good mix of fun and tense with my favourite gun being the shotgun with honorable mention to the minigun. The game doesn't change much in terms of mechanics in each level but it makes up for it with unique areas and new enemies as you go along.


Pros:
+ The environment is stunning
+ The Audio is perfect, as someone who has dived before i loved all the sounds when you hit things
+ The amount of different creatures is decent, the sharks pretty much do the same thing but have different health
+ There are more features to come which might bring me back to the game later on
+ The Kraken is intense, especially during the final fight
+ The story is simple but gives plausibility to the sea life aggressiveness
+ Decent selection of weapons, all good for different creatures and playstyles

Cons:
- I got confused with the treasure on the compass, not sure if I misheard something in the tutorial but I'm pretty sure it only popped up on some of the levels
- Huge lag spikes in the menu system, I capped my game at 60 for my stream but the inbetween level menu droppped to 10-20 frames
- No really a con but maybe had something slightly different to the gameplay loop, maybe some very simple puzzles to change things up a bit

This is definitely a good start, I enjoyed it for the most part but it is a slow burner, took me an hour to properly get into the game and I didn't want to put it down till I got a game breaking bug that didn't allow me to complete the quest to place a flag down. I do very much look forward to future updates.

Pros:
+ Great graphics, there are some great views
+ Mission progression is simple but it did keep me pushing through
+ Customization of the house is really nice, either through buying things or finding it in the forest (Please add more stuff to buy and find)
+ Decent size map but can be too big if a fire starts on the other side of the map
+ I do find it quite interesting that the clean up process is a lot more then just grab rubbish and place in bin
+ Seems to be a nice amount of things to be crafted but maybe don't allow players to buy that stuff, have it as just craftable


Cons:
- Animal AI needs to be fixed a bit, they run into trees and get stuck
- Can't walk through water but sometimes can? Also there should be splash sounds when walking through water
- The music cuts out randomly at night, not sure if you wanted to scare the crap out of me but you did
- The lighting from the sun and moon is really good but it does glitch in and out sometimes
- Some audio (bees and other forest animals) only really go through one ear and are incredibly loud

I know this is early access so a lot of the little bits I can mention will be fixed at some point as they make the game better and more solid, just make sure you go into the game thinking this.
