Oct. 2024

This is rated by price of, length of, and quality of game per hour. That means if a Game is 15 dollars and takes 3 hours to complete, it's 5 dollars per hour of entertainment. If said 3 hours of entertainment are good for the cost, I recommend the game. In my opinion, well worth the price of admission. Not a title that will blow your mind, but entertaining, stable and worth the entertainment cost.

This has all the hallmarks of a good horror game. Jump scares are on par, the vision effects are great, and the limited lighting gives you a sense of danger. The puzzles are good too. If I had notes, I would have dropped the lighter fluid mechanic since it's actually just more annoying than anything. Also, the killer scenes I think are scripted, not random. I'd be okay with a walking simulator to learn the story, but the killer element is just unnecessary.

Fits into its niche very well. On the shorter side but good atmosphere and visuals! From an indie developer, a really good game!

Bro - great sounds and visuals. Some creative jumpscares and a cool story with twist ending. THE POST CREDITS THOUGH!!! Iykyk

Το Palmyra Orphanage μοιάζει με μια στερεοτυπική ταινία B-Horror. Έχει αρκετά θετικά χαρακτηριστικά που το καθιστούν μια διασκεδαστική, τρομακτική και ζεστή εμπειρία βιντεοπαιχνιδιού. Αλλά ταυτόχρονα, βασίζεται υπερβολικά σε jump scares, έχει αμφισβητήσιμο σχεδιασμό για τους εχθρούς του και τις συνολικές ενότητες υφής και μαστίζεται από κακογραμμένη, αποσπασματική αντισοβιετική/ρωσική προπαγάνδα. Προς τιμήν του, οι γρίφοι εδώ δεν είναι μόνο στοιχειωμένοι, αλλά δεν λύνονται τόσο εύκολα αν δεν δίνετε προσοχή στα αντικείμενα που συλλέγετε. Έτσι, όπως αναφέρθηκε, την επόμενη βροχερή σας μέρα, ίσως σκεφτείτε να πάρετε το Palmyra Orphanage, μια ιστορία φαντασμάτων για έναν εξαφανισμένο αδελφό, νεκρά παιδιά και ένα ηθικά χρεοκοπημένο και οικονομικά κατεστραμμένο ορφανοτροφείο.
