unlabelledView post →I’ve been playing Withering Rooms and it’s soooo good. Like a side scrolling dark souls game but with lots more women/witches
unlabelledView post →Withering Rooms is a REALLY interesting game. Like... what if the original Clock Tower was also a Souls-like and roguelite? Reductive, but it works Moody side-scrolling survival horror with stealth, but you're encouraged to push your luck a lot and get increasingly aggressive as you explore deeper.
unlabelledView post →Anyway, Withering Rooms, very good game, you should play it. Little bit of jank to get used to, but it is a small price to pay.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →God this game is good. Criminally underrated. Saw Jerma play it, turned it off to buy it. I hope others do the same! If you're unsure, the demo was crazy long. - Story + world building SO good - Combat feels great + good enemy variation - Lots of build variability - Unique - Nice mix of genres while never being overwhelming one or the other either - The only game to get me to utilize switching builds mid fight because its so easy and actually worth it Difficulty/Combat - It's…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →29: Withering Realms - Followup to the undersold Withering Rooms. A hack n' slash action-RPG set in a very haunted world, starring a modular puppet-warrior and a ghost girl. The previous game was a hybrid of 2D action RPG, survival horror and roguelite. This one's more open-world and overhead.
unlabelledView post →I 100%'ed Withering Rooms about a month ago now, and I still can't stop thinking about it. I loved the world, I loved the story, I loved the characters, I loved the art style. Most of all, I think, I loved how unashamedly weird it was from start to finish. This is one of those titles that simply doesn't get made anymore without the uncompromising vision of a solo developer who doesn't particularly care about mass appeal. If you can get past the "jank" (a fair bit of which seems to be an…

unlabelledView post →On this #screenshotsaturday, announcing that I am working on a SECOND GAME! I really did not think this would ever be possible, it's all thanks to everyone that supported Withering Rooms. Will be sharing more details about this new adventure over the next few weeks - stay tuned!
unlabelledView post →The developer wrote [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/2006140/discussions/0/3395175706743661215/#c3395175706746103474]"Withering Rooms rewards caution and adapting your playstyle to the situation. While it has action elements, this is not an action game! " Nonsense. There is enough combat to say Withering Rooms can be defined as an action game. Read through the developer's veil attempt to re-classify the obvious. Saying; "this is not an action game" the developer is well aware of the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is just so good it's hard to explain with words. The vibes are just great and the audio design is crazy too. Characters and story are well put together and the world design goes so hard. This game was my game of the year when I played it (And I played the hell out of Black Myth WuKong too), and is still my favorite single player game out there. I enjoyed playing this game more than I can say. The combat has enough variety that it doesn't get old trying out different builds. I would…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The solo developer of Withering Rooms put so much love and care into this game. Extremely impressive. Each aspect of the game, like combat, progression, story, music, and exploration are done very well. I just read an interview about how much the game is inspired by Welsh folklore. The developer didn't need to go THAT hard into incorporating cool history and folklore into the game, but he did! You can really tell how much love went into the game. I'm currently 4.5 hours in, and finished Chapter…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Started playing this game called "Withering Rooms" and so far I'm liking it a lot. It's Dark Souls, meets Clock Tower meets Silent Hill with a little bit of Metroidvania...all in a rogue-lite wrapper. It's got a great creepy atmosphere so far and it's tough as nails.
unlabelledView post →I played 100 games this year so I'm just gonna name 10 that I liked a lot, regardless of the year they released in, order only vaguely indicative of enjoyment. 1. The Big Catch: Tacklebox (extremely excited for the full game) 2. Withering Rooms (did not expect to like this as much as I did)

unlabelledView post →Here is a Spoiler-Free critical review of Withering Rooms. Withering Rooms is a heavily atmospheric, and surprisingly well thought out game with layers to both its gameplay and its narrative that go much deeper than its 2.5D indie horror visual style initially lets on. It is not a perfect game, suffering from a slightly awkward game loop, an opaque level/stat system and the occasional technical bug. But the more time I spent with withering rooms, the more I grew to love it. Withering rooms is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →such a creative, mysterious, and creepy world. a bit jank combat wise, but has so much charm and just oozes the love and care put into it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is one of my favorite indie games now, I saw Jerma play it and instantly fell in love. The ost is amazing, the mood and story are great and there are homages to all of my fav survival horror games from Silent Hill to Rule of Rose there is love in every inch of withering rooms. Playing it multiple times and feeling myself get stronger just *feels* good and if the sequel has more refined combat it could really be something great. To me this is a modern classic!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I cannot wait for this game! It goes overlooked, but Withering Rooms and the upcoming Withering Realms are both set in Wales. Realms is looking incredibly creative! Set for Early Access on Steam in Q2 2026. Wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/3441990/...
unlabelledView post →Started up Withering Rooms last night. I kept hearing about this game, and it's been on my radar. It's a horror action-roguelike. Took me a bit to get the swing of things, but as soon as I did, I sunk so many hours in.

unlabelledView post →A masterpiece, really. The lore, the animations, the atmosphere, the graphics, the mechanics, everything is just brilliant. So many times I had to stop and admire the cleverness of a story beat or a scare or a mechanic. Just when you think you've seen every new thing the game could throw at you, it surprises you again. It's hard to believe this is the work of a single dev. This dev is an absolute madman and he executed his vision for this so well. I don't play horror games. This is the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I adore this game, I loved the atmosphere and the story, was beautiful. I look forward to the next one coming out. Reminded me of a souls like haunting ground but with more freedom.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game until around the second chapter. After that the cracks start showing hard. Chapter 3 balance is a mess. Melee builds basically become useless and the game forces you into spells or ranged if you want to keep progressing. Combat itself is just awful. Most fights boil down to whoever fills the bleed meter or stun-locks the other person first. You’re constantly face-tanking hits while mashing the attack button. Blocking feels like an afterthought that barely matters. It tries to be a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →87/100 Just finished the game 100%, all achievements and wanted to leave a brief review. You play as a young witch who in the beginning is trying to break free from her captors but quickly learn that there are many more people imprisoned in the Asylum. Considering the fact that Withering Rooms was made by ONE developer only, I was very positively suprised by the overall game's quality. Overall phenomenal game, especially considering the teams size. The good + Game starts very simple but…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A HIDDEN GEM!!! -I never thought a 2.5D survival-horror like this could have such a large and complex map for exploration and many side quests to do. -there are many weapons, armors and tools throughout the map which you can combine to make a build to your liking. it's really a unique taste for a survival-horror genre. 100/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After having seen this game a couple times on steam, I finally decided to play it after seeing Jerma985 praising it highly on his channel. This game is magical in many ways, initially I was very unpleased with how difficult the beginning of the game felt. Very little health and no resources, poor weapons and brutal enemies with brutal and unforgiving AI, you would not be mistaken in comparing this game to Bloodborn or Lies of P. However, after very little play time, the game really starts to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fantastic game. Dripping atmosphere that you get completely lost in. Gripping story Lots of stuff to do Fairly deep and impactful RPG character building. 9/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I kept waiting until I had completed everything before writing a review, but I'm sick of not having my opinion out there. I will expand this later, but in short: this is an amazing, underrated game from a solo dev and I think it is worth every dollar, full price. One of my favorite games of all time and not to be missed. Great plot, gameplay, music, everything 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →They've got *tons* of these running right now, too. This one has Ziggurat 2, The Ascent, Withering Rooms, Metro Exodus and Streets of Rogue for under £2.50 each. Seriously, for the price of one AAA game you can get some of the best games of the past five years. www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-...
unlabelledView post →I thought this game was pretty good, didn't see it mentioned a lot back when I played. Withering Rooms, took a lot of inspiration from likes of Silent Hill/Resident Evil/Clock Tower etc with roguelike elements. Worth checking out if you're into those games.
unlabelledView post →Withering Rooms is a fascinating one, and perfect Halloween material. It's like if Clock Tower was also a roguelike, and a souls-like, and a traditional survival horror game? I love the magic system. The more you use spells, the more warped the world becomes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9kN...
unlabelledView post →This game is shockingly good It deserves so much more attention and recognition Visual presentation is superb The music and aesthetics are haunting and beautiful And it's a breath of fresh air how creative and unpredictable the story is Most games don't have great stories. This game has an excellent story Haven't encountered any flaws at all Try the free demo, you're in for a treat

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Please play this game…. It is filled with so much content, when you think the rabbit hole is over it just surprises you and keeps going. The rpg and roguelite systems are very fun and rewarding, combat isn’t really anything special but you can really customize your approach to it and take the game on in your own way. There’s a lot of different setups to try and mess around with and a ton of different items to use. Very rewarding to explore and figure out puzzles and secrets, often giving nice…

unlabelledView post →For the next game, trying to make *everything* at least like 25% better than Withering Rooms. Trying to minimize the bad jank while preserving the good jank. Working on some spell FX today with some 3D noise for the smoke instead of plain old flipbooks like before.
unlabelledView post →witheringrooms.com I haven't finished it yet but I highly recommend checking out the survival weird/gothic horror game Withering Rooms. I'm completely enthralled but based on what I've seen online about it, it has yet to get the attention it deserves. Indie game of the year for me.
unlabelledView post →a banger. indie game worth supporting!! another game that looked intriguing, i thought like "mmm, hate roguelikes but love horror & that atmosphere mmmm." months after buying I finally tried it and got sucked into it majorly & played for four hours. Its rare for many games to get me like that now. yep, difficult, for sure, but beating something after multiple attempts gives me the same (badly needed) dopamine hit as when id beat a tough boss on some game as a wee lass. even if you think its not…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Steam Next Fest demo for Withering Realms from @moonlessformless.bsky.social is out now. Set in #Wales, the horror action RPG follow-up to Withering Rooms lets players explore the opening hours of the game before reaching the town of Penwyll. store.steampowered.com/app/3441990/...
unlabelledView post →I absolutely love this game. I was drawn in when I heard it was a horror roguelite, but it’s honestly so much more than that. The game wears its influences on its sleeve beautifully and the sheer amount of things to do and weapons to try out is vast but not overwhelming. It’s like Silent Hill and the Souls games got thrown into a blender and the result was this overwhelmingly delicious smoothy. Definitely recommend it, I’m honestly amazed this game isn’t more popular.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Withering Rooms is a game that only comes around once in a blue moon. Gameplay While the core gameplay is very simple, I was really surprised by the character build variety in this game. You can play as a magic user, melee fighter, or even a ranged build. The game gives you many different tools to use in which you can further put your own spin on each build archetype. The combat isnt challenging to the point where its punishing, but what it does accomplish well is maintaining a level of…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a hidden gem for fans of the Soulslike genre, if they can adapt to the sidescrolling (and somewhat clunky) combat. The atmosphere and lore of this game is wonderfully creepy and clearly crafted with a tremendous amount of love.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yes it's kinda jank and, for better or for worse, the randomization isn't very impactful, but for a solo dev this game delivers wonderfully on survival horror resource management/problem solving, RPG character growth and builds, music, and fantastic world building with a healthy dose of charm layered over the macbre. This game is something of a hidden gem to me and I'm excited to see what the sequel brings.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The best game of 2024, absolutely in love with it, incredible world and story created, unique and cozy music, fun gameplay, this game has EVERYTHING and I played it 4 times, worth at least trying it out, nothing else like it for me 10/10 one of my most fav games of all time
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You kill everything hostile to you for ways to get more stuff and explore to find things. You lose everything (besides permanent items and things you remember to save for future use) upon death. Difficulty settings exist and changing them resets the map. There are npcs that help you and there are puzzles. The combat is a mix of stealth, rolling and attacking at the right times and there are range options as well as melee weapons. The stealth is optional but highly recommended against stronger…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Can't say enough nice things about it, you can feel a little bit of jank in the combat, but it's clear a massive amount of love was poured into this game. Nothing to say that hasn't already been said by all of the other positive reviews.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The definition of a hidden gem. Excellent atmosphere, satisfying progression, fun game play, interesting story. A must buy if you are a fan of horror or rogue likes.
