unlabelledView post →The Vanishing of Ethan Carter @theastronauts.bsky.social One of the most beautiful game I ever played. Not just for the graphics, but also what it contains! Own camera! Thanks to @etra0.lat for the help. #virtualphotography #unrealengine #vprepost #vpsupport
unlabelledView post →The Vanishing of Ethan Carter Redux @theastronauts.bsky.social Years ago, I played that magnificent game with beautiful surrounding and an awesome story. Couldn't resist to make a small camera for it. Enjoy! #virtualphotography #freecamera #ethancarter anticowl.github.io/2025/05/21/E...

unlabelledView post →Mistook The Vanishing of Ethan Carter for another game but enjoyed it more knowing little. A short, atmospheric walking sim with beautiful landscapes, ambient audio, and simple puzzles. Story is intriguing but cryptic. Check it out: wix.to/DOhC03h #WalkingSim #GamingCommunity #IndieGame
unlabelledView post →so so so so weird hearing people liken a segment in a video game to a "walking simulator" and the term being used..... non-derogatorily????? "It plays like a good walking simulator, like The Vanishing of Ethan Carter". like that was very much a Negative term at its inception
unlabelledView post →I have a feeling this game (The Vanishing of Ethan Carter) developed by a Polish studio but with characters who have English names and American accents miiiight have been set in the US at a later stage in production while the original concept was set in Europe... just a hunch
unlabelledView post →I think I would have enjoyed #TheVanishingofEthanCarter more if I knew where I was supposed to go going in totally blind with this game is not recommended : www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ughq... @theastronauts.bsky.social #TheAstronauts #AdventureGame #AdventureGames #IndieGame #IndieGames
unlabelledView post →To hell with gen Ai used in concept arts. Share a game you think had a unique way of developing / making things (visuals, music, etc...) The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (2014) used "photogrammetry" to make realistic visuals. Basically, devs had to make LOADS of photos!
unlabelledView post →I'm making an executive decision to switch today's stream game. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter has some pretty heavy themes so I thought it would be better for the community to play something lighter... so we're playing a silly game where I control an egg www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7BR...
unlabelledView post →5. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter Big oof. Haven't played a game that managed to bore me to death within the span of an hour. "This game won't hold your hand" well the feeling is mutual. Dropped.
unlabelledView post →And game #2 for the year is down. Once I hit the astronaut sequence in The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, I thought I was in for a wild ride of a games. Turns out I was not. Worth the $4 I spent. #blutoid
unlabelledView post →WitchFire by The Astronauts (The Vanishing of Ethan Carter) Clever progression and environments. The level layout and "encounter" based progression is reminding me of the 1st Halo. 2nd map has a Silent Cartographer vibe, especially this path leading up to the interior. 💙 the early access so far.
unlabelledView post →played a bit of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. they weren't kidding when you were told that the game would not hold your hand. what do you need to do? figure it out. how do you do it? figure it out. am i doing this right? well, are you advancing? no. then figure it out.

unlabelledView post →30 Days of Murder - Video Game Edition Day 6 The Vanishing of Ethan Carter on PS4 (2015) A more sedate and modern murder mystery as you play Paul Prospero, a paranormal investigator that can view past events to create a timeline of what happened to Ethan Carter and his family.
unlabelledView post →Yes, the Vanishing of Ethan Carter looks great. A 2014 game from an indie dev from Poland, by the way! medal.tv/games/reques...
unlabelledView post →They're older games but 'Firewatch' immediately comes to mind. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a gorgeous puzzle/spooky game, lovely music and environment (but w/ horror elements, not scary or gory, just suspenseful). From Dust is a puzzle game about world building, challenging but unique.
unlabelledView post →Anyone have any recommendations for a good "occult investigation" game for the PC? I've played Call of Cthulhu, The Sinking City, and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I have Blair Witch, but bounced off of it after a few hours. Looking for something new to scratch that itch.
unlabelledView post →My ★★★ review of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (2014) on @backloggd.com. This game was unfortunately just "fine" to me. I say this often when it comes to Walking Simulators, but they need to do something substantial enough to justify their own existence. bckl.gg/kqpk

unlabelledView post →127. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (2014, PC) The game may be fairly short and a walking simulator at its core, but the engaging narrative, beautiful visuals, and serene OST are enough to make this worth at least one playthrough.
unlabelledView post →Had this game YEARS but never played it… I think I wanted to do a let’s play or stream it, but never got around to it. So, time to start The Vanishing of Ethan Carter! #gaming #videogame
unlabelledView post →What a pretty game! The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
unlabelledView post →Man I tried to play The Vanishing of Ethan Carter today and idk what it was but the game in first person made me sick enough to my stomach I had to stop playing. I thought maybe I didn’t eat enough since it was late afternoon so I ate some toast and felt better until I played it again and almost 🤮
unlabelledView post →How many points did he redeem? I just remember, I was watching your VODs and noticed you played The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I love that game! Short, but enjoyable.
unlabelledView post →The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is over! and holy shit, WHAT a game. 11/10 highly recommend it to everyone if you have the chance to play it! We raided @poetheghostgirl.bsky.social ! Thanks for a great week of streams & see you later~
unlabelledView post →And totally easily nabbed achievements if you're into it! This game sits proudly among other prestigious titles I have 100%'d, such as Waking Mars, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter Redux, and Bloodborne
unlabelledView post →Game 19 of 2025 completed: The Vanishing of Ethan Carter 🏆 A short 3ish hour murder mystery walking sim that felt akin to What Remains of Edith Finch, Murdered:Soul Suspect & The Sinking City. It took a couple tries to get into as the game dumps you in a town with no clue what to do but fun ⭐️⭐️⭐️
unlabelledView post →I bought The Vanishing of Ethan Carter because it looked like a cool mystery game and then when I found out there was a section where you'd have to run from a monster I uninstalled the game 😭 that's who I am
unlabelledView post →Oh damn, like the Vanishing of Ethan Carter, which was a gorgeous game which unfortunately has a twist that makes it impossible for there to be any kind of follow-up.
unlabelledView post →Seventh game of 2026: The Vanishing of Ethan Carter for the Xbox One X. Played on my souped up XBox One X. Because I gotta use that thing for something other than streaming. bsky.app/profile/ivan...
unlabelledView post →YUP. The only ones I'll ever pirate are ones that've been delisted. I still haven't pirated a game since GTA 3 like 2+ decades ago. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is the only one I can think of that I'm considering pirating, but that's only bc it's delisted. We need to support devs, especially in VR!
unlabelledView post →Completion 43 this year is The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. This is a fairly easy detective game which you can knock out in a few hours. The story is ok and the gameplay is fine. Reminds me of a worse version of Murdered Soul Suspect, fun enough for a couple of hours if you don't mind A LOT of walking

unlabelledView post →For Wisconsin, I loved THE VANISHING OF ETHAN CARTER, which has weird fiction elements and beautiful backgrounds. (Another good Washington game is WHAT REMAINS OF EDITH FINCH? -- can you tell I love walking simulators? 😄)
unlabelledView post →One step ahead of me, eh?🙂 Alright, then let's try: -Detention (Taiwanese horror game) -Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water (survival horror) -Dead Island 2 (action horror) -Metal Hellsinger (rhythm action game set in hell) -The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (melancholy narrative game)
unlabelledView post →THE VANISHING OF ETHAN CARTER wow, when this released it was one of the prettiest games I’d ever laid my eyes on. It’s a sinister and spell-binding game with a mystery to solve. A walking sim (mean that with love) with heart and at times a little scary. Great atmosphere.
unlabelledView post →that’s a lovely little game. I’m a big fan of walking mystery games like this. Some of my faves are Firewatch, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, What Remains of Edith Finch, and Dear Esther. Such a fascinating style of game
unlabelledView post →Other than that I think you'll enjoy The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. It's one of those games you can't really talk about without spoiling what makes it special, but I will say I always recommend it to my writer friends.
unlabelledView post →I suggest "The Vanishing of Ethan Carter" if you haven't played that already. Look into "Astroneer" as there is some story related stuff to that sandbox game. "Out There" tho I'm not sure if you'll be too interested in it.
unlabelledView post →Trying out The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I remember when this game came out and I thought it looked cool but never got around to checking it out. Hope it's not too spooky.
unlabelledView post →The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a god damn masterpiece idgaf. I played it years ago, and just finished watching the VOD of my favorite streamer playing it. Absolutely bawling and sobbing all over again, it's such an emotionally wrenching game 😭♥️
unlabelledView post →The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is such a gorgeous game. There's a "Free Roam" option at the start menu so you can just walk around and look at the scenery. It's THAT good. 🫎🤘🎮
unlabelledView post →New @anrgaming.bsky.social video has gone live! We've finally finishing The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter and we ended up 100% completing the game and getting every achievement come check it out youtu.be/x3kbv3MEiis?...
unlabelledView post →6) The Vanishing of Ethan Carter A fascinating narrative-focused puzzle game with breathtaking environments. Become a psychic detective and track down the whereabouts of a missing child. I absolutely adore this game's storytelling.
unlabelledView post →Thx again everyone for coming out to The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. The game was a little buggy and got lost a lot, but I really enjoyed streaming it. I always love literary style storytelling in games and this was another very enjoyable story. Special thx @virtuebro.bsky.social for the bits.

unlabelledView post →That "yellow paint game" post reminded me of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. A game that has a visual contrast issue packaged as part of the game's aesthetic. 🧵
unlabelledView post →78. Once Alive / STEAM Well-intentioned first-person adventure game in the vein of Everybody's Gone to the Rapture or The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, but horribly let down by a confusing plot, immersion-breaking voiceovers, and higgledy-piggledy gameplay that never quite decides what it wants to be.
unlabelledView post →I mean, I'm guessing that they more want to mess around with what's possible with modern tools. Like when the Painkiller devs made The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Game devs like challenging themselves, and I'm guessing a lot of people just got inspired by Hades's tech, like "Doom-clines"
unlabelledView post →You're correct in the fact that Death Stranding is clearly not the same genre of game as The Forest, Gone Home, Dear Esther, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Firewatch, The Stanley Parable, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture or What Remains of Edith Finch.
unlabelledView post →Finished up The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I’d honestly forgotten almost everything about the game aside from the very end, but it still amazes me that it’s regularly forgotten or overlooked in the annals of Walking Sim history.
unlabelledView post →Here’s a game I recommend every gamer play at least once: The Vanishing of Ethan Carter It’s one of those games that just sticks with you the rest of your life. The tone, the voice acting, the mystery, the visuals, the vagueness. It’s all so moving. #gaming #gamer #games #ps3 #pc #ethancarter
unlabelledView post →The Vanishing of Ethan Carter - COMPLETE! This was a very engaging and unsettling narrative game. It pulls you along with its simple design, but the atmosphere is spectacular in making you feel this constant sense of unease. Beautifully made, and something that is going to stick with me. I feel it.
unlabelledView post →I'm so late to the party lol but the game "The Vanishing of Ethan Carter" was such a beautiful game with a tragic story. The creators did a great job 👍 Are there any similar games out there that I'm not aware of? #games #gamer #gaming
unlabelledView post →Just recorded all of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter in one go and uh, hoo boy, kinda forgot how that game ended. Woof
