Awesome and scary horror game that requires a surprising amount of thinking to play. I haven't played much this genre so that experience was rather new and refreshing. If you get stuck, use your head, the answers to most puzzles are pretty obvious in retrospect. I recommend this game for all the horror fans out there.

About This Game

Ashley: The Emptiness Inside is a third-person psychological horror game in which you explore the restaurant that burned down many years ago. This place keeps many dark secrets covered in ash. Learn the history of this mysterious place from its founding to the fire in which many people died. Hidden caches, secret passages and mysterious puzzles are waiting for you on the way. Look for information everywhere and you will find answers to your questions. Why the restaurant rose from the ashes? How did this happen? This you have to find out on your own.

You play as a girl named Ashley, trapped in the restaurant from her dream that turned into a nightmare. You see the walls approaching you, the dusk envelops the corners of rooms, and your heart beats more and more. The cozy place where you felt happy became quiet and empty. You hear the whistle of the cold wind instead of the visitors laughter, you see dim lamps instead of bright festive lights, you feel loneliness instead of joy and you smell death instead of the fresh dishes aromas.
Uncover the secrets of a mystical restaurant in atmospheric third-person horror game. Unfulfilled dreams and real nightmares waiting for you. For many years the grim restaurant has been keeping echoes of the passed holidays, the clink of broken glasses and the smiles of people whose bodies become ashes for long ago.

From the first few seconds, you can see that something is wrong. Proportions. Your character is huge. The second thing - a gamepad doesn't work properly. The third - the previous two don't matter, because everything here is wrong... A puzzle adventure about an introverted girl. As far as I understood the plot, the girl made up her own world (or someone made it for her) where she appeared every night. That's the main idea of the story. Other details we learn through notes, letters and so on. The developers couldn't put all this text together into a whole thing. It's like watching a film that skips ahead after 5 minutes. The technical state is no better. It's clear from the start that the game hasn't been properly tested. Lots of bugs and glitches. I didn't notice any game-breaking errors, but from time to time I wasn't sure if everything was all right. I wouldn't call it a horror game. Certainly not psychological horror. It's a twisted puzzle with nothing remarkable. Not recommende...
Was good.
nice puzzles, not too hard, good story. I do think this game would benefit from voice over the intro and ending, even a cut scene that is drawn out if you can't do animation. Have the radio play more than one song, or at the end do credits with that song that can be played on the radio. overall worth $10. I did get this at halloween on sale though. Some issues with being able to see through wall but otherwise this is a good puzzle game.
wasn't a fan of the game, but if you like puzzle games then this is the game for you. (it didnt take me 9 hours, accidently left the game open) took about 2 hrs max. there was a couple of good jumpscares, other than that super chill.
Great puzzle game with lots of exploration and a few jump scares, and achievements. I like the graphics and puzzles and creepy atmosphere. Pros: Great graphics, puzzles, always on edge to see what happens next, save points, achievements, lots of exploration. Cons: The mouse control is a little clunky.
