Nov. 2024

Amanda the Adventurer is a surprisingly chilling and innovative indie game that blends nostalgic visuals with a deeply unsettling atmosphere. At first glance, it appears to be a lighthearted, retro-styled educational game, but it quickly unravels into something far darker. The way the game subverts expectations by intertwining eerie moments with its cheerful presentation is brilliantly executed. The story is captivating, slowly revealing its sinister undertones through clever puzzles, cryptic hints, and interactive sequences. Amanda herself is an unnervingly well-crafted character, seamlessly switching between being charming and outright terrifying, which keeps players on edge. The simplicity of the gameplay – solving puzzles and watching VHS tapes – masks the depth of the narrative, encouraging exploration and critical thinking. The game excels in creating a sense of dread, with moments that make you question what is real and what is manipulation. Overall, Amanda the Adventurer is a must-play for fans of psychological horror and innovative storytelling. Its short runtime only enhances the experience, leaving a lasting impact long after the final tape is played.

I give it about a 5/10, so very much a borderline thumbs up. Very short game, which leaves me with a sensation that nothing was really resolved. There are a lot of hints at an interesting story here, but not a lot of meat on the bones. The puzzles are good for the most part, though I did end up using a guide for about half of the secrets and when I did so I definitely got the impression that they were things I never would have considered on my own. Decent game, though I think there was potential for it to be much better.

With there being a LOT of indie horror games using the "innocent children content" as the fear factor, this one still feels unique and fun to play. Amanda the adventurer feels like an escape room of sorts with most if not all objects being used at some point to get to the end of the game. The concept of having Dora The Explorer type interaction to have an effect on the progression and attitude of a character like Amanda is something I am surprised hasn't been done earlier. Playing this with AKMotions was very fun and we both had a slice of fun comedy and light unease with how the scenes played out which made for a very fun episode. I am very excited to see what the second game brings and hope it live up to what the first game has done. 💥

A really good example on what a Mascot Horror game with passion and love would play like, this game is amazing and doesn't pull the usual bullshit with other games like Banban or Poppy Playtime before chapter 3. An easy recommendation from me.

6/10 A decent little horror game that makes for a great introduction to horror. Stuck in an attic you must solve the puzzles throughout the room and on the TV through VHS you collect to survive.
