Now this is a great idle game. When I first played the game I loved it, but then there were some really slow parts of the game. I felt like I was making no progress and that it would take days to weeks before it felt like I was making progress. I quit playing the game for a while because of this, but then “events” were added to the game and the multipliers you could get helped to get rid of these slow points.

The main reason I’m giving this a negative review is because of how it runs on my computer and the lack of satisfaction I feel after finally being almost completed with the game.

This game makes my computer run really hard for really no reason. I have the quality at simple and the resolution at 1600X900 and it demanded so much to run. I run many newer games with maxed out graphics on this computer and do not even get near how this game runs on my computer. I do not understand why this game demands so much to run. Seems very strange to me. I might just be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up for all I know but you cannot change much on this game so I do not believe I’m ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up. My roommate played this game on a Mac and that would heat up insanely quick also.

Getting to the end felt very empty for me. I was not really excited to be almost done with the game and honestly I felt I wasted my time playing this game. I feel the point of idle games is to waste time but this one felt too long. It took me almost two years to finish. Yeah I know I suck. The slow points in the game also made the game a chore to play to get past them.

Since this game is free, there is no risk in playing it. The game is plagued with the dreaded micro transactions to get multipliers and skip days to make the game go faster. If you really enjoy idle games you will probably like this game but the slow point really make this game a chore to play and I do not like how the game runs. Again I’m probably just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up. In general I would just avoid playing this game.

I thought the story in this game was well done. It was defiantly interesting and has multiple endings based on the final decision you have to make in the game. The gameplay is fun and the enemies are fun to fight against. The graphics are nice too. The game was actually really scary at times. Especially at the beginning of the game, but it kind of died out as I got further in.

Unfortunately the game is really short. I was playing on one of the harder difficulties and it only took me 6 hours to beat the game. It’s defiantly not worth 30 dollars. If you can get this game on sale, it is worth playing.

WARNING— Every once in a while I would have some strange frame rate issues. I have a really beefy computer, so I do not believe it’s an issue on my end but it may be. It did not last long and only happened a few times.

This game felt a little different from the first FEAR. The horror aspect is defiantly there and at times I was really creeped out. The enemies towards the end of the game really had me on the edge of my seat. The story and the appearances made by Alma really mind ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me. She scared the ♥♥♥♥ out of me multiple times and had me in a state of “what the ♥♥♥♥ is going on” for most of the game. Her appearance is very haunting and made me very uneasy every time she appeared. Overall the horror aspect is done well or at least I believe it’s done well.

The main issue I have with the game is the combat and the environments you are in. The combat does not feel as smooth as it did in the first game. The weapons felt awkward for some reason. I cannot really find a way to explain it. A large amount of time is spent in a hospital and in the ruined city. It felt repetitive and got boring. The DLC for the game had an interesting story but the gameplay was boring.

If you liked the first game I think you will like this one. I might just be a little too picky with the actual gameplay and you might find it too be fine. The story is decent and the horror is adequate. Give it a try if you can get it on sale.

This game is defiantly worth playing. Especially the DLC. The story is interesting and the gameplay/shooting is fun and feels very smooth. The game is short but still very enjoyable and the graphics are decent for an older game.

The horror aspect of the game is there. The environments are very eerie and being alone all the time really had me on my toes. Unfortunately the combat with the enemy takes you out of the horror aspect of the game. There are few jump scares. They did not really get me. I only jump scared myself at stupid moments. Like I know I was going to fall through a ceiling, but when I stepped on it I did not initially fall through. I stepped forward a little and then fell through and nearly ♥♥♥♥ myself. Then Alma randomly came out of a cubical and since there was no sound playing, I did not really notice her. I say her and did not pay any attention. But for some reason I had the most delayed reaction ever, and when I say her move towards me it scared the ♥♥♥♥ out of me. Alma appears randomly all throughout the game to try and scare you and it’s defiantly creepy, and I like how they did it. They do not try and jump scary but try to get you physiologically by having you think that Alma is always near you.

If you can get this game on sale, its will make up for the short gameplay and the DLC are a bit more scary. Defiantly give this game a try.

I always read the negative reviews to see what is wrong with a game before I buy it. The reviews said this game is short, boring, and the AI are too accurate. I really was curious to see what “too accurate” was so I bought the game.

This game is okay. It was fun to play even though the story is short and boring. The graphics look fine and the weapons shoot well. The only issue I see is that the AI have god-like accuracy. They can shoot a fly’s wing off from miles away. I really could not believe the accuracy they had. This makes playing on harder difficulties very challenging. I played the game either on the hardest or the second hardest difficulty to make up for the fact that everyone said that it was short and regretted it after level 3. I managed to beat the game due to the fact you can save anywhere in the game. There are no autosaves. It only autosaves at the beginning of new levels.

For 5 dollars this game is alright to play. There is really no reason to replay this game other than to try harder difficulties, but I still enjoyed playing it.

This game was not fun for me. It first started out with the fact that the games resolution cannot be changed to fit the screen in game. You can go to the discussion section for the game and find ways to fix this issue, but I thought it was find the way it was so I did not bother. When gameplay started I was very frustrated with the contrast of the game. It’s really dark. I understand that is like this so you need to use your flashlight but areas that were supposed to be light up were very dim so I increased the brightness to fix this issue and it worked well. I found the use of the flashlight to be very annoying at times. Enemies would spawn but the areas were so dark I would have to swap back and forth from flashlight to gun to fight properly.

The main reason I’m giving this game a negative review is because of the design of the guns and enemy mechanics.
Most of the gun are underpowered or are useless in most situations. The pistol is good for shooting the spiders but otherwise is too underpowered to use anywhere else. The shotgun does good damage up close like it should, but shoots too slow for the quick moving enemies. The spread on the shotgun is also really large and does little damage to enemies at mid-range. The pulse rifle’s shots are really slow moving making it hard to hit the fast moving enemies. The biggest issues come from the grenades and the rocket launcher. The grenades are bouncy balls. They luckily explode on impact with enemies but the close quarter fighting makes them very situational, and not very many opportunities arise to use them. In this game you can shoot projectiles out of the air. This makes using the rocket launder really hard and again, close quarter fighting prevents its use for much of the game. The submachine gun is also underpowered.

The enemies in the game spawn usually is sets of two. One in front and the other somewhere behind you. I thought this was a cheap move. It had me always back tracking as soon as I heard them spawn in. Since many of the guns are underpowered, enemies that should not be bullet sponges end up being just that. All the enemies are also very-very fast. They get to you so quickly that you take unavoidable damage most of the time. AI accuracy is also too good and trying to take cover is somewhat useless.

This game tried to stay true to the original DOOM but it was done very poorly. Enemies are too fast and guns are underpowered.

Skip this game and go straight to Mount & Blade: Warband. Its the same game with a different map and smaller hit boxes.

If you do buy this game alway keep in mind that it is a sandbox game with no end so you decide when it ends.

This game is story based and if you don’t read all the notes you pick up, you may not enjoy the game. The story is amazing. The gameplay itself is repetitive but the story kept me going. I really wanted to know the story of the settlers and who the red maiden was. You are basically a detective in this game and you’re trying to discover what happened to the settlers who are now ghost that can’t seem to remember why they can’t find peace. You help them of course.

The enemies you fight in this game are not very dangerous, and for the most part you can side step all their shots. The noises they make are quite terrifying though. The horror aspect of the game seems to be only present when you ring the bell and it goes dark. The first time I rang the bell I s**t my pants. Scared me half to death. The game does get suspenseful at times. The weapons in the game other than the bow are slow to reload so if you are getting horded by enemies it could be a little terrifying.

One big issue I have with the game is the black and white contrast is too intense. Hurts my eyes and changing it made the night too dark to see. This black and white contrast is what brought me to the game. I thought it was very interesting and unique so I thought I would give the game a try. It was worth every penny…and all the eye aches.

10/10

I don’t remember where I first got a copy of this game but I thank the person that got it for me. I loved this game and spent hours playing it. The musical organ was a lot of fun and so were the mini-games. The best part of the game was the clickable items in the scenery. There were so many of them and they were very entertaining.

Childhood relived.

This is a fantastic horror game. The atmosphere is very intense and eerie. The puzzle are quite fun, and the enemies are terrifying. The water monster is what probably scared me the most. The sound of it approaching me scared me the most.

The actual story was very interesting. The layout and graphic in the game are really good too.

One thing I didn’t like about the game was the part where you have to collect the three rods. I didn’t know you had to jump out a window onto a ledge to get to the room with the last rod I had to find. I wondered around for a good two hours until I finally figured it out.
