35 of 35 · most liked firstThis game is very similar to Blue Maiden which was made by the same dev. That game itself wasn't particularly great, I almost gave it a negative review. However, I'm not going to be so kind here. In all honesty, it's straight up trash. What you're getting is a short (less than an hour long) horror game with cheap jumpscares, boring environment and so much backtracking. There are no auto-saves so if you want to get all achievements, chances are you'll have replay the game at least once since…

I missed one note collectable. + The game has 2-3 jumpscares that actually work. I got goosebumps. + The game in 4K max settings is very atmospheric and beautiful + The puzzles were not difficult, no guide needed - The music / soundscapes loop way too often and got annoying fast - One key is called "The drawer key" and says it will open a drawer in the game description. It…

Didn't had a clue from where to start or what do, but in few minutes i realized that i have to go with the flow (the path of this game) The game has a nice creepy atmosphere and overall the music parts are well made! ============================ Pros : 1. Great atmosphere 2. Easy puzzles 3. Good sound and decent Graphics 4, Short puzzle/horror walking sim 5. Achievements Cons: 1. Some places are extremely dark and i had to…

unlabelledView post →I like horror games that work with atmosphere not the dread of being chased by enemies, so i thought that this game would be an instant win. Sadly, "locked in my darkness" is 95% walking back and forth to collect things and look for keys. It is so dark that you often can't see anything (even though it is in the name of the game, how can i be afraid of things i cannot even see?), there are tons of cheap jumpscares, that don't do much for creepy vibes. I had to walk back and forth for an hour…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately, most of my time with it was aimlessly wandering around, looking for keys and waiting for the next event to trigger. Graphics wise is nothing to write home about and history wise neither. I consider the price extremely high for the quality shown, but, if you want to take your own conclusion, just follow the link below and see my no commentary walkthrough: https://youtu.be/oP8slc6WN3E I had to include some fade to blacks, otherwise the video would be full of backtracking and…

The puzzle solving and the explorative game style is exactly what i want in a indie horror walking sim. This game was developed by a single dev and i think they did an amazing job. If you enjoy Chillas Art or games in that vein you should give this game a try i give it a 4 out of 5 shady unicorns.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is a short experience but well done. The atmosphere it's quite good and the sounds are quite scary. The puzzles are easy so you won't have any issues figure it out. I recommend playing it in one run and check all places because sometimes u can miss them because the size. To finish, for the price is a very good game, give it a try, u will like it!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game does get under your skin a little. Play it at night for maximum effect.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →All right little horror game. Just the first part of the game kinda sucks and the fact that there is no saving at all (even though you cannot die).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Locked in my Darkness, developed by Blusagi Team and published by indie.io, is a short-form psychological horror experience that builds its impact through atmosphere, disorientation, and a tightly controlled sense of pacing. Rather than presenting itself as a traditional survival horror game filled with mechanics and systems, it focuses almost entirely on immersion, placing players in a confined environment that slowly transforms into something increasingly unnatural. The result is a compact…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hey guys. First, two news: 1) Locked in My Darkness 2 is almost finish, news soon. 2) I'm working on a new game with a different genre than horror. I'll be making an announcement in a few days. #indieGameTrends #Steam #youtubegaming

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game on Fanatical in a bundle for less than £1 and I still feel I paid too much for it... There is no real substance or story to the game and the puzzles can be solved by a child. If you check my reviews you will see I do normally give these type of cheap indie horror games a positive review but this game was a total let down and should be skipped for something better
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/QWzZC7ScDmU Waling up and down the same streets fails to build any tension or setup any real horror elements.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Recommended this game is so very spooky & atmosferic.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed the game, with some really good jump scares, audio really set the scene, this is the first horror game from this develover.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is very short. I completed it in 1,5 hours while exploring as much as possible. After that started another run to find the last two notes I missed in the first one. Found these in 20 min and quit. It was not very scary for me. Some jump scares got me a little but that was it. I did not encounter any bugs. But the mouse sensitivity setting was strange (on the lowest still too fast) Still I would recommend it but ONLY on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →AYOOOOO NEW SILENT HILL JUST DROPPED!!!! Honestly, this is NOT a Silent Hill clone but it definitely gives you those horror vibes at the end. This was the developer's first game and its a damn good one. The atmosphere is very well done, especially the outside parts. If you dont get jumpscared at least once, you are a psychopath. Also to follow that up, NO, it is not full of jumpscares and it DOES NOT rely on them for the spooks. This is psychological horror for sure. Rough around the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very eerie game. The atmosphere is amazing and the sounds are creepy as hell. For a first game of this developer I can't praise them enough. Great job. Scared me.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Devs first game and for that it's pretty good, the 3 jumpscares got me pretty bad. My only issue was that i wish the the garage doors were more obvious that they were able to be opened with a key. Other than that i enjoy. https://youtu.be/INMpy0uqKcM heres my playthrough
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game features iconography that reminds me of Blue Maiden, but I'm not sure if there is an actual story connection. The biggest issue is the puzzle design. It constantly forces you to go to a dead end, walk back to a newly opened path, return for a key, and go back again. This specific loop repeats so much that the progression feels very artificial and a bit tedious.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i came into this expecting a good horror game, and i got exactly what i came for, everything was 10/10, definitely recommend to any horror fan.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ts so ass dont buy bad english
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Easy achievements. Game got small jump scares and is what kind of expensive for what it offers. You quickly get lost, but rapidly understand the way you have to go. The game takes about 40 minutes to 1 hour to finish and ends very abruptly.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not good, cheap horror, should be free if its just like a test.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very beautiful short horror game worth it to play !!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wish there was a note telling me where the key is.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Big escape room feels, well put together puzzles, and well used jump scares. Well done!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/9686972/]Follow "First Person Exploration and Puzzle Games" for more games like this! A fairly low-effort horror walking sim. It's one of those games where you walk around the same small area multiple times, and the environment changes in "scary" ways while you walk around. Here are a few examples of why I said "low effort": • In the settings, the game has controls for "shoot", "aim", "lean left/right". This game has no shooting or enemies. • At…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is for anybody that is a fan of horror, and psychological horror games! There’s something lurking behind every corner and you don’t know what to expect. Definitely recommend this
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In my love for Horror games I play as many as I can and I had played the demo for this a while ago figuring it was about time to get into the full version of the game and see what happens at the end of it. In the game you are exploring an apartment complex that seems to be abandoned as you find nobody else around as you search for different things to solve puzzles as you try to figure out exactly what is going on around there. You are apparently being stalked by what looks to be werewolves…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Decent Indie Horror game, scare's weren't amazing but one or two made me jump and the atmosphere wasn't bad but didn't really add much tension. Didn't really understand the story that well but it was somewhat interesting. Overall pretty good for a first horror game!! Looking forward to any new games in the future!
