I pretty much just got this game and so far it's fascinating.

Also, it's pretty scary, seriously. You have to try this one. :shock:

That was actually one I was interested in, but wanted to wait & see some reviews before I got it.

Ah, it's a great game, the price is pretty cheap for a great experience.

If you're into spooky games, this is it, it's actually scarier than Dead Space.

Dead Space isn't scary IMO :P

Amnesia is the one of the sickest games I've ever played, and when it comes to scary games, the first thing that comes to my mind is Call of Cthulhu-Dark Corners of the Earth X)

Talking about sick, I feel like playing Postal 2 again >D

$20 on Steam. Not bad at all.

I just bought the game based on comments here, and a couple other reviews that rated it highly. It does look like something I would enjoy.

But if I don't like it, Im Blaming you Skulblaka!! :p

I'm off to give it a try.

Ha! I doubt you'll be disappointed! It's so immersive, you'll be sitting on the edge drawn in! It's awesome! I'll play it after I'm done with homework! :thumbsup:

I forgot to add, you must have headphones! Sound in this game is crucial!

It is different, but in a good way :) So far I really like it.
Kinda creepy too, but haven't got to far into it just yet.

Im going to wait a couple hour till its darker before I get to involved.

Excellent! Make sure you can hear the game clearly, I strongly advise headphones.

Also, I just got to some parts, they're pretty... uh, disturbing, and yes, it's still spooky.

Ok, This game is simply brilliant IMHO.

Not only the creepy atmosphere, but the fact you feel so helpless.

First Survival-Horror game Ive played that actually felt like a "Survival-Horror"

Yesss! So, how far have you're gotten? How scared out are you? Have you stopped playing simply because the fear was overwhelming yet? That happened to me four times.

Only five people created this game, and it's incredible.

Im not that far into it yet, going back into to play some more.
I have found myself several times cowering in a corner going ,... "WTF was that!"

I like things like this, and so far getting into it pretty good :)

20$ on Steam?
I thought the game costs 10$? o.o
At least a friend of mine who played through it said so, I didn't bother to check
*looks at his empty wallet and useless credit cards* :'(

It was $15 as a Pre-Order Sale, but noe 19.99.

Still worth every penny IMHO though :)
Steam had a DEMO of it as well, not sure how long it is though.


The deeper into you get the scarier things seem to get. You'll get drawn in pretty quick too.


For others curious about the game, I found this review of it on Youtube.

Honestly, if I was going to give one it would be very similar to this one.

I just left the main Hall took the elevator down. :)

Sadly, after my adventures..lets just say looking for a puzzle piece. Im now scared to even open a door. ;-/

Yeah, I get that, you don't know what will be around the door or even the corner. Heheh, enjoy your next area... :devil:

This game is by far the best I've played in a long time. The atmosphere is simply perfect and the sounds are chilling. Since I wear headphones, I had to turn the volume from ten to seven in-game since it scared me so much. I haven't played the game for about a day since I'm a a part where I know a monster is going to crash through a door. :cry:
