negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The horse jumpscare was so unbelievably loud it made me reactively take off my headphones and was so bright I closed my eyes. My ears hurt for about an hour after the jumpscare even happened. The screen is constantly blurry for no reason and the jumpscares happen so often with so much volume it hurts.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overcast has nice music, and everything else is bad. Feels like a technical prototype or technical experimentation of gameplay elements. + Great themed music - Subtitles are super small to the point that they're hard to read (I assume because of a high resolution) - No continuity or consistency (doors open at different speeds) - Super loud jump scares that don't even make any sense (play with 50 % volume) - Enemies appear and disappear out of thin air, but you shoot them with physical bullets…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Rough, basic, short, and fugly. One of the worst "horror" experiences i've ever had.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game.. Wow. I really wanted to give this a positive review, but I can't. Graphics are not that important for me but for a 2014 game? Hm, could be better in my opinion. Sound? Wtf is this? Why does it reset itself after completing a chapter? Makes no sense. Jumpscares are just jumpscares flying in your face and being loud, nothing special. You get used to it pretty fast. Sometimes the music vibe isn't matching to the whole gaming atmosphere. I really wanted to play this game till…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Objectively bad in all ways. Only gained fame years ago because it was so terribly bad that early streamers would play it to be funny. Once that fad faded away, all that's left is a game that would be overpriced at free to play. Waste your time if you want to on this junk, but don't say I didn't warn you.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As for me, Overcast is definitely a crookedly assembled horror game in a medieval setting that, in general, is nothing of itself with very poor optimization

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The atmosphere and soundtrack had some potential, but the clunky gameplay, cheap jumpscares and rough presentation quickly killed it for me. Not a horror experience I’d recommend.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →10/10 Masterpiece, would play again, make sure your volume is at the maximum setting possible.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Rating: 7.5/10 Overcast - Walden and the Werewolf is a survival horror adventure that blends exploration, combat, and resource management in a dark, atmospheric world. Players must survive against werewolves and other threats while managing limited supplies and uncovering the story. The game’s strongest aspect is its eerie atmosphere and sense of tension, which keeps exploration engaging. However, the controls and combat can feel a bit dated, and the gameplay loop becomes repetitive over…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →C+ for an effort. It has the basic structure of a playable game and a promising setting of a western horror, but unfortunately everything else (except for music) is amateurish. It tries pulling Amnesia in the very first level (upon entering the stable you can hear horse snorting, right before discovering butchered remains of a poor old nag) and then it never goes back to it, opting for several very cheap jump scares and some wonky action instead. It actually plays better as an LSD/trippy…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Another banger from the SA Industry! Written by Hideo Kojima and Toby Fox in a collab, has one of the best storytelling ive ever witnessed in my life. the music, from which i can only assume played by a real opera is a blast to listen to. I will be adding the ost into my spotify summer playlist(yes summer because i am edgy like that). Graphics made me feel like i was actually walden, the trees made me feel like hugging them because they had so many polygons. They went so far into interesting…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is truly innovative in the sense of being AI slop a decade before generative AI. Absolutely hysterical, a must play
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good base for a horror shooter. The story is lackluster. It's all over the place and skips around without explanations. The MC personality is constantly changing throughout interactions, it really suffers from not being able to create a base to work up from. The chapters are divided weirdly with no defined pattern. Some are composed of only one small task, while others have multiple objectives, but the one characteristic they have in common is always being restricted to one area. The…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What can I even say, a true Linguini Bros MASTAPIECE. The soundtrack makes you feel like you're really living as Walden as he fights off various floating enemies. I'm very excited for part 2 and can't wait to see what the Walden Cinematic Universe (WCU) brings. Nerf spiders they are OP. Add a sprint button and dead hard too for the second on. And maybe a live hog, every animal in this one was bisected (got their body cut off)

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice horror game, with gun fights, jumpscares, but some of the goofy enemies cause it a little annoying for the game to finish. Overall, 7/10, game has a fantastic settings of graphics/lighting, just the story is little off!

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got this through gambling, seriously underrated game, made me feel actual fear, ts is so underrated bro this game needs more recognition
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely dated, obviously visually but more importantly mechanically. The visual effects are over the top and blown out, and the cutscenes have NPCs T-posing. The gameplay is simply go here and get a key, now go here and get a key, now... go here and get a key. You'll occasionally have to fight or run from a poorly animated enemy. Worse though, there are frequent "jumpscares" which are usually a flashbang combined with an obnoxiously loud noise. Took only 15 minutes to get halfway through the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The camera slowly pans in. Walden sits alone in his creaky old cabin, the storm raging outside. The wind howls through the broken windows. The floorboards groan under the weight of a thousand regrets. His hands tremble as he loads his rusted rifle, each bullet sliding in with a painful slowness. Lightning flashes. Thunder roars. He knows what’s coming. He’s always known. The violin music swells to an unbearable screech. The door bursts open. THE WEREWOLF IS HERE. Eyes glowing. Claws…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing Experience ! This game is truly one for the ages. If you want to play a game with an immersive atmosphere, exciting and fast-paced gunplay and a souls-like final boss, you have to try this game. 10/10 soundtrack fr tho.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →MID- Honestly i aquired this game through a $2 steam key and was not hoping for much here. Oh boy was i right, the jumpscares i dont even know if you can call them jumpscares, it was more like "lets abuse the players ears". during the gameplay the music was louder than everything ruining the tense moments in the fights. The gun, oh brother dont get me started, i think you can grab a wooden plank and do more damage. The plot was extremely messy, you go from avenging the village to saving a…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The only positive thing about this game? The steam cards. Lack of voice acting gave less immersion to the game. The story honestly just got all over the place... In the end, this game feels more like a shooter than an actual horror game. Has some jumpscares indeed, but the gameplay will leave you so bored (unless you're very patient) that the jumpscares barely do anything to you. I got quite upset that there weren't checkpoints on each chapter - there should have been, since sometimes a mob…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sadly there's no middle options except by not reviewing but then I can't type my thoughts about the game. Of course the game scared me, by having too many jumpscares at least in early game. But it doesn't help the game that the visibilty is poor, not just because it's dark in early game, but there's different screen effects that makes visibilty worse in later parts of the game from skimming through gameplay videos. In "Cutscenes" there's no animations, maybe except camera's animation, plus…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Legitimately one of the worst games I have ever played. Someone said there's some good music in there somewhere, maybe you can check that out.... Just heard a few acoustic guitar licks here and there. Its got all the charm from a 2004 game design engine template flip combined with the indie horror garbage from the early 2010s and then dials that combination up to 15/10. Literally an assault on the senses, the visuals a strain on the eyes and the sound a menagerie of screeches during action…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This survival horror FPS provides some really scary moments and the final boss fight was well-designed, nerve–racking.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Story is promising, soundtrack is nice, but the game itself is executed poorly. Nevertheless, devs tried and that's great. It's ok for a dollar. 4.5/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →- Too short campaign. - Not very good models. - The story is is too incosistent. - A lot of obviously jumpscares. - The screen is blurred much part of the game. - The shooting mechanics are too basic. - Too many cutsecnes. + I got it for free

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Simply wow. This is one of the greatest games ever. PERIOD Probably the best story in a game , which perfectly intertwins both gameplay and story in a seemless way. And no it isn't one of those "movie games" which is 30 hours of cutscenes and subpar gameplay. No it truly boggles me at how they can charge such a measly price for one of the best games on the comador 64
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A polished experience with lots of replay value.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Let's be honest... I got swindled on a random steam key... I paid $1.27 USD. That said... I paid $1.27 too much. Let's talk about what's good. Its a game. It has... you know... game type stuff. The bad... Its not a good game. Yes, there are jump scares that legit got me good. That may be the only shining light of this title. The rifle is ridiculously slow to reload, the enemies are hard to see because of the crap filter that the developer decided to use all throughout the game. It was poorly…
