I loved this game. It's panic-inducing and hilarious, often at the same time, which is quite a feat. The frantic pace, minimalist graphics, and cartoonish monsters come together so perfectly that your fight or flight response is constantly interrupted by laughter. The high pace and furniture-throwing combat bring an incredible intensity to the experience, and every fight feels like a frenzied battle for survival as you're swarmed by squawking crows, shadow people, unkillable mannequins, grasping giant hands, and other more exotic and fearsome enemies I won't spoil. The enemy models aren't incredibly detailed but I think in horror less is often more, and each design imparts exactly enough information to you to know what they'll try to do to you and how you should respond. When you win a fight it always feels like it's by the skin of your teeth and when you flee you always feel like your pursuers are just a breath from catching you. Physics are obviously important in a game where you spend all your time hurling furniture at enemies, stacking things to solve puzzles, or catapulting yourself over obstacles, and for the most part I was very impressed at how well-realised they were - the magnets and fans in particular are a technical achievement and an absolute blast to use. My only complaint on this front is that sometimes when you rip a door off its hinges and throw it it'll sometimes get stuck in the frame at a funny angle, but this is only a minor issue that can be as comedic as it is jarring. The pacing and level design is spot-on with the difficulty growing just in line with your increased skill, so you're always challenged but never frustrated. The few "friendly" characters are strange and not at all reliable but incredibly charming and by the end of the game you'll be very attached to them - Ik's dialogue is well-written and it's hard not to fall in love with Shrimp even though he is only ever one skipped meal away from eating you. There are collectables and bonus areas for completionists to round off the package but for me the 6ish hours I played was exactly the right amount, a hearty but not excessive meal. At under £8 this is a steal and I'd love a sequel one day. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45281933/]my steam curator page

The Upturned is a lovely, unique narrative third-person experience. The simple gameplay is kept interesting with how each 'level' expands upon it, the humor is fun, and the story and worldbuilding surrounding this slice of the afterlife is something that I find legitimately interesting. It's not a 20-hour story like some larger games, but I do think it has enough content to be well worth the price. I really, really like this game.

I feel as if I needed to write an actual review for this game. This game is a goofy, wacky horror game with lots of charm to it, and for $10 dollars, this doesn't even need a sale. There's barely anything I disliked about the game, and you should give this game a shot
