6/10 Not particularly good, but pretty entertaining and frequently funny (intentionally or not). Taylor is my favorite sex pest.

**Simulacra: A Creepy, Addictive Mystery (But Please, Give Me a Volume Setting)** I hecking love the story in Simulacra. It’s immersive, unsettling, and keeps me hooked. So far, I’ve only completed one ending, but I’ll definitely dive back in when I feel like emotionally wrecking myself again. That said, why is there no in-game volume setting? I had to manually adjust my mixer volume in Windows just to avoid jumpscares destroying my ears. It’s a small thing, but it makes a huge difference—please, devs, let me control my suffering levels properly. I also have problem on not seeing my own cursor in the game too Despite that, I’m loving the experience so far, and I can’t wait to see what other endings have in store for me (or how badly I’ll mess things up next time). If you love eerie, found-footage style mysteries, this game is definitely worth playing! I KEEP GETTING TRICKED BY THE SOUND EFFECT THO THERE IS ONE TIME I GOT A KNOCK ON THE DOOR SOUND THAT SOUNDS LIKE MAD, I THOUGHT MY MUM IN LAW WAS MAD AT ME, I OPENED THE DOOR AND SEE NO ONE!

SIMULACRA is a puzzle game where you have to find what happened to Anna thru her phone. Check her messaging, emails, social media, videos, pictures, etc and talk to her friends to find the truth... It's kinda like a A normal lost phone game but more complex, more suspens in a horror ambient... the story is great and there's multiples endings. The sound effects and the graphics are nice, I highly recommend it!!! 💗💗💗

Late to the game but I did enjoy this a lot! I wasn't expecting the horror aspect and I really liked the climax and a lot of the story was very gripping! May replay for additional interactions and endings, Will def. play the sequels.
