This game is fantastic! one of my favorites in my library. If you are someone who is interested in this game because you love or loved phasmophobia I strongly urge you to pick up this game. I personally think this game is better in almost every way. minus a few things, but this game has only been out a year so i think with more time it could just all around be the better game. I have over 300 hours in phas and almost 80 in this game at the time of writing this. I think it is important to lay out what i think this game does better. Things demo does better: 1) The maps are not only designed better, they are also scarier than phas in my opinion. They also come out much more frequently than Phas maps, instead of just making U.I. changes over and over again. 2) The side objectives CLEAR Phas's they are much more detailed and engaging, and rarely end up in someone dying for absolutely no good reason. reading notes about the games lore and actually accomplishing things is just way more immersive in my opinion. 3) You can actually exorcise the ghost. I always thought it was strange in phas how you just figure out what type of ghost it is then you leave. again it makes Phas feel less complete and less engaging. 4) You can customize your character, change your hub world, and have a pet. with the hub world interacting with the story at times. nothing crazy but i think just adds another layer to the game that Phas just does not have. 5) that brings me to my next point which i feel is more subjective, but I love the fact that this game has a overarching story and all the maps have lore behind them it adds depth to the things going on around you. 6)ghost events. This is a big one that demo just sweeps with. i have played a decent amount of both games, and most ghost events play out the exact same way in phas where as here im still seeing the ghost do things ive never seen before on the regular. it really keeps you on your toes. I believe this to be a unity restriction on phas's part i may be wrong but this game is just way scarier. I often am not scared by phas sometimes even downright falling asleep waiting for anything to happen. where as in demo I am on the regular in the middle of a mental breakdown this game can be terrifying at times. phas is more of a slow burn that just mildly creeps me out every once and a little while. Things Phas does better: 1) Having three tiers of equipment. I think which game has better equipment is down to personal preference, but i do find myself wishing demo had different tiers of equipment to unlock like phas. 2) The proximity chat is WAY better in Phas. Demo doesn't have a radio even so i think this game is best played in a discord call, because the ghost can always hear you no matter what unlike phas where you have to actually talk through game chat to be heard. 3) Activity meter this one is not only helpful on Phas but it add another layer of depth for whoever decides to be the truck (or in this game the tent) guy. Although you can look at different cameras in this game which is something i wish phas would do, but overall i still think the truck is more engaging in phas because of things like D.O.T.S and spirit orbs. In demo you are really just looking for ESG and Easel. altough that does mean you are inside the house more often being scared so I will let you decide if that is a positive or not. It is for me because I play these games to get scared and sometimes truck duty puts me to sleep. 4) Basketball. I don't mean to sound like I'm knocking Phas, Because i still like it, but I would be lying if i didn't say this game has more of my attention. Phas was my first PC game after I built my computer and this game would't even exist without it, but if you are on the fence about getting this game i say go for it. I really do not think you will be disappointed out of all my friends we all play phas and demo on a regular basis and 5 out of 6 enjoy this game more. I genuinely can not recommend this game enough, This is definitely the longest review i have ever written for anything. Thank you for coming to my ted talk and happy hunting!

Demonoligist: Full Review So Demonoligist can be seen as a "Phasmophobia Clone" to quite a lot of people, however there are some things that it improves on and adds to the experience. Things I wanted from Phasmophobia from the start. The investigations are extremely similar compared to Phasmophobia but it takes the whole "retro" look when it comes to some of your tools. What I love about Demonoligist compared to Phasmophobia: > Better jumpscares, although some ghost events are scripted it has better jumpscares overall. > Exorcism after investigation. This is the thing I really love about Demonologist, because as opposed to Phasmophobia you actually do something about the haunting. In Phas you just investigate and leave the people to deal with the ghost "Yeah bro your house is haunted, but at least you know what ghost is haunting it." Demonologist allows you to exorcise the ghost after you completed the investigation which adds another level of enjoyment. > Environments are more "spooky" which is amazing, in Phas its just some random persons house or cabin. > Tools are straight forward. You can read the tooltips on what each tool does but its easier to get used to compared to the large variety of tools Phas has. Some might see the large quantity of tools as a bonus, but I always found it annoying, running back and forth with each tool trying to find what the hell was needed. Demonologist has fewer tools allowing for a smoother experience and less back tracking. > Ghost noises and environmental interactions when it comes to haunting ramps up quite a lot in Demonologist, where as Phasmophobia has fewer interactions and more frequent haunts which doesn't build the same tension that Demonologist does. > One key interactions. The whole dragging to open doors annoyed me so much in Phas and could sometimes break during a ghost chase where with Demonologist its a simple E for interact which is such a relief. > Hidey spots. In Phasmophobia the closets or some of the rooms offer no "real" protection where with Demonologist the closets have saved me... Not so much my friend but thats a him problem. > Character customisation. I know it's very basic but just being able to customise my character is such a nice addition. What I don't like: > Low sprint. I get that you try to build tension and want to add a level of "spook" to the game, but I am not playing a morbidly obese man that can't sprint for more than 5 seconds without becoming exhausted. Phasmo has the same issue. > XP gain is a bit slow as well as money, but the higher the difficulty the greater the reward I suppose. It just becomes a problem when you need to do the same map 3 or 4 times before unlocking the next one. > I had a bug where the side objective wouldn't complete even though I interacted with all the crucifixes. This kind of forced me to finish the "hunt" sooner, losing out on extra xp. But now I'm nitpicking. Conclusion: Phasmophobia has had three years to build up to what it is now. Demonologist is still in its infancy, but the fact that it has features in which should have been in Phasmo years ago now speaks volume to the developers commitment. I look forward to the future of Demonologist and what it could bring to the table. This game has replaced Phasmo for me completely. So if you are wondering which one you should get, Demo or Phasmo, I would recommend Demo simply because it has features in it that improve on Phasmo so much. I know I haven't invested a lot of time in the game as of yet, but believe me when I say that this is just the beginning for me. EDIT: Okay so I thought my game was bugged as my "tools" kept vanishing in my hand. So not a bug... The Namaah steals tools. So I don't know whether the devs are trolling or whether they are masterminds. Really enjoying this game guys. Good job.

Currently, I recommend this game, but, there are definitely some issues. First off, this type of game is not new at this point. Phasmophobia started it all and now we have dozens of these... Most people who actually play these types of games now are veterans. We know what we're doing. That being said: The way everything is capped per level is kind of ridiculous. Having to grind the exact same level at least half a dozen times before being able to level up high enough to unlock another map is annoying. Nobody wants to be forced to play the same map over and over and over again just to grind though for experience; especially when you may or may not have all of the equipment to accomplish the optional objectives in able to actually fully complete a game for the full payoff. Depending on that, it could take more than 4-5 play-throughs just to level up one time..... Dude, that's insane. Also, the cost of many items is honestly just laughable..... Salt, in any country and any age would NEVER cost over $1000.... Put some realistic costs to items in this game, and make the cost/pay scale more balanced. We shouldn't have to spend half of our money getting basic items that we lose every time we die, it's absurd. Lastly..... don't make us only able to play on easy difficulty until we reach level 5, that's boring and annoying for veterans who have played 3,4 + types of these games for years.... It's not a good way to retain players who don't want to wait 20 minutes for stuff to start happening... Other than this, the game is a 10/10 for atmospherics, graphics, map uniqueness, mechanics and everything else. The game has real potential, but stop locking everything down so hard. This isn't a competitive game! It's a co-op game!
