Jan. 2019

+ Beautiful sound design + Creepy atmosphere + Relatively challenging gameplay + Mind-blowing plot - Having to figure out everything for yourself without any cut-scenes or explanations may be considered as a flaw. On the other hand, that is exactly what makes the game engaging, difficult and demanding. SPOILER: Repeated phrase "Stop the water, start the fire" – actually hints at the main goal throughout the whole game!

June 2015

<DOOR OPENING SIMULATOR 2015> Definitely a creepy game, if a bit confusing, but then again it's a psychological horror game so that confusion works....at least a litlle. I still don't know exactly what's going on in this game after 2 playthroughs but I think it has something to do with brainwashing experiments being carried out at a secret, underground facility called, yep you guessed it, Hektor. Initially it was very atmospheric and scary and I was literally holding my breath while creeping along darkened hallways with nothing more to light my way than a ye olden times zippo and some random, faulty lighting. I definitely dropped many OFB's while playing this (TRANSLATION: the word 'OH' followed closely by a commonly used word for copulation and then finished off with 'BOMB'). The first time I saw the emaciated, floaty ghost that's rockin' some hardcore denim was merely the first of many OFB moments. After that, those moments were basically only used for when the Predator showed up (no, not the good kind that keeps your skull as a keepsake) but a cracked out version of the emaciated, floaty denim ghost. The use of sound and music is effective, though I have to say that the trippy, tilting screen effect throughout the entirety of the game gets a little annoying. Oh yeah, then there's the profusion of doors....so many doors, so little time! Anywho, Hektor was a creepy surprise for me and I can't wait to see what the devs do for their next game. Definitely pick this up (though i recommend you hold out for a sale, as $20 is a little steep for this one).

March 2015

The Game is a bit overpriced for the content it provides. Should have bought it for no more than 7$. Once you realize the live level generation will get you to where you are supposed to go, no matter where you turn, it becomes a really relaxed experience. The Monster has bothered me every now and then, but that's ok, every time he killed me I wound up closer to the goal, and closing doors in his face didn't really stop him from walking through anyway. I liked the ending. The Music is great.

March 2015

Unfortunately, this game is getting a lot of bad reviews. Most of them saying that the game is too short, and that there really isn't a huge threat because the monster doesn't really chase you and rarely shows up. That being said, it's still a great horror game, and keep in mind that it was developed by only 5 people. And for 5 people to create this type of horror game that goes on for 2 hours (only if you know EXACTLY what you're doing) is impressive. Furthermore, eventhough the monster might not be chasing you all the type, the eerie and terrifying atmosphere and sound effects makes it seem like they're behind every corner, which frankly scares the shit out of me. Even if I wouldn't have encountered a single monster, I still would've thought this game was great, because I always thought I was being chased. Good job Rubycone! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMfyowV_NYk&index=1&list=PLKMxTuqznyPNSCr1OJYithq4UN29NiPHa

Super creepy game that plays on yourr fears. The whole world shifts around you in unsettling ways leaving you unsure as to what is going to happen next - and yet somehow you always manage to find the correct path. Part maze exploration game, part psychological horror story - this game gave me chills down my spine. Highly reccomend if you like to be scared and unsettled.
