Nov. 2024

quite enjoyable, bought for squirrel stapler, stayed for to the end of days and the diving bell 8.5/10

Nov. 2024

Overall I'd say 7/10, a slightly worse 7 than the first but still pretty good. Wrap-around gets a 6/10, very well made but too short for me to really remember. Another Late Night: 2/10. I genuinely have no clue if I played this properly, it kinda just ended after like 10 minutes. Arcadletra: 2/10. Pretty boring, the jumpscares were too loud (not in a good "oh damn that scared me" way, in a "ow now my ears hurt" way). I also am not sure if I played this correctly because one part just kinda kept going until eventually things changed. Charlottes Exile: 6/10. Fairly good, but not much really happened. Solipsis: 6/10. Same as CE, and really short Squirrel Stapler: 8/10 overall, but for my personal experience with it 3/10. Easily the best game, but I really don't like hunting games, especially realistic ones where you have to be quiet. Sucker For Love: 7/10. Surprisingly fun, happy to say it's not just a VN with the control of "press x to continue." The Diving Bell: 6/10. Scares were alright, the anxiety as health mechanic was pretty good. But sometimes I just had to go through the entire ship multiple times because I missed what I had to fix. The Thing in the Lake: 2/10. Easily the worst from my experience, not at all clear what's a bear trap and what's grass in the 2nd section, impossibly fast enemies that can't be avoided and kill you instantly. Thankfully I only had to complete sections 1 and 2 to get the completion achievement, for whatever reason. The Toy Shop: 4/10. Alright, just alright. Toy shop theme was fun, but the twist was too obvious for me. To the End of Days: 2/10 Just kinda boring, and it seems the devs didn't have a clear vision of what they were doing. Also the robot noise when you hit it is so fucking loud and grating. Touched by an Outer God: 6/10. Very fun game, but the story and twist were predictable and obvious. Undiscovered: 3/10. Kinda just felt like a walking sim, maybe I played it wrong.

Nice anthology of "horror" games. But mixed feelings, cause more "demos" doesnt make a better experience. The BEST PART SO FAR its the House (HUB World) [👍] with all the puzzles and exploration. Some games, as said before, are good or interesting, some are not so much. Heres my opinion on them: > SUCKER FOR LOVE · Duration: Short · Gameplay: Simple but enugh for what the game is · Story: Good with some scary moments > TO THE END OF DAYS · Duration: Kinda Short · Gameplay: Unpolished but fine enough · Story: Meh, didnt find it too interesting > ANOTHER LATE NIGHT · Duration: Short · Gameplay: Simple · Story: Confusing > ARCADLETRA · Duration: Short but feels longer than it is · Gameplay: Basic, but slow. I REALLY HATE THE CONSTANT NONSENSE JUMPSCARES · Story: Confusing AF > CHARLOTTE´S EXILE [👍] · Duration: Mid/Short in theory, but the constant tension makes it feel longer · Gameplay: Love the puzzles mixed with the constant threatening. AT LEAST YOU CAN PAUSE THE GAME! · Story: Engaging, but hard to follow due to the monster creeping around and the hard to read typography. (You can get all the time you need tho) > SOLIPSIS · Duration: Short · Gameplay: Simple but effective for the narrative · Story: Experimental, but like a short horror story > SQUIRREL STAPLER [👍?] · Duration: Longer than it should be · Gameplay: Cool, but the map should be half the size, its kinda boring looking for squirrels · Story: Creepy af, nice storytelling > THE DIVING BELL · Duration: Mid/Short · Gameplay: Basic but enough to give me the creeps · Story: The storytelling its well mixed with the gameplay so its nice > THE THING IN THE LAKE · Duration: idk i didnt finished it, but the achievement popped out when closed the game · Gameplay: It could be good if there wasnt instakill enemies that appear in every screen based on time, cant differenciate which surface its walkable or not with the lofi graphics, so its a constant trial an error and just dropped it · Story: didnt finished it but its seems interesting, like some kind of sleasher > THE TOY SHOP · Duration: Medium/Long · Gameplay: A bit unpolished. Bad Level Design: Mostly if you make a chase with an immortal enemy that one hit KO´s you, dont make one way paths, most of the game it just trial and error and its disgusting. You can barely see the enemies coming cause they dont make a sound when they spot you, and the game its too dark. · Story: Kinda weird, maybe an intro or something setting up the plot would make it less confusing. It relys too much in notes. > TOCHED BY AN OUTER GOD · Duration: Kinda short · Gameplay: Basic but stressing and confusing · Story: Didnt care to find the notes cause the game is not engaging > UNDISCOVERED · Duration: Mid/Short · Gameplay: A bit confusing but fun. · Story: Interesting (Loved the Easter Egg)

July 2024

My ranking, knowing that they are short indie experiences . (I do not mean to offend, but I want to be sincere) 1.Squirrel Stapler (9.5) - Unforgettable 2.Touched by an Outer God (9) - Very fun 3.Charlotte's Exile (9) - Very good 4.Solipsis (8) - Interesting 5.Sucker for Love (7.5)- Fun 6.The Diving Bell (6.5)- Decent 7.To The End of Days - (6.5) Kinda fun 8.The Thing in the Lake (6) - Has potential 9.Another Long Night (5) - Nothing happens 10.Undiscovered (4) - Not good 11.Arcadletra (2) - Quite bad 12.The Toy Shop (1) - Quite bad Hub (8.5) - Good idea/execution Got the collection at a discount and I do not regret it, even if there are some games I did not enjoy, my overall experience is positive.

July 2024

The Toy Shop, Squirrel Stapler, and Sucker For Love are really fantastic- and honestly so is the hub world. Not all of the other games are at exactly the same level but almost all of them captured my attention enough to complete them. I really wish there were more anthology games on Steam because I found the experience of playing this and the 3rd Dread X game to be really intriguing.
