I bought this game because I found the aesthetic to be interesting and I was not disappointed. This is a unique anomaly game experience. The concept is simple, but effective. The game centres around one room and 4 doors that you need to choose from to progress the game. It's as simple as that. Each time you go through a door, you are presented with the same room, but with something different. And the difference can be something minor to something entirely unexpected. There are three modes that increase in difficulty and I can honestly say that each mode is extremely satisfying to beat. Observation mode will require a lot of patience, as the anomalies can be fairly subtle. This stands out from a lot of other anomaly games as this focuses more on simplicity over story or style.

About This Game
You find yourself in a quiet room. Four doors surround you. One will lead you deeper. One might lead you out. But where is The Fifth Door?
The Fifth Door is a short walking simulator inspired by Silent Hill, Amnesia, and Resident Evil, and the claustrophobic tension of films like The Cube and The Grudge.
If you enjoy games like Observation Duty, The Exit 8, Slender, or Fatal Frame, you’ll feel right at home here.
Explore a dreamlike space filled with over 36 unique puzzles with surprising variations. Something is always changing.
Perfect for a single-session experience: playable in 30–60 minutes.

If you love horror anomaly games with an added touch of creativity, then look no further. The 5th Door really delivers in all these areas. I also appreciated how the devs added "INSANE" and "OBSERVATION" mode to really test your skills. Furthermore, you will see some nostalgic love from some of your favorite past horror games in this one. If interested, please check out my game play footage here: https://youtu.be/LlFZxQlF69E
