Daughter of Shadows: An SCP Breach Event

This game upset me to my core. I wanted to enjoy it, truly, because I love SCP - but I just couldn't do it. It's ugly, the gameplay is repetitive and controls are hit-or-miss. It reads like a bad Flash game from the early 2000's.

[h1] Daughter of Shadows: An SCP Breach Event [/h1] This game is what I would discribe as a sour lemon :P If you like blah then you will really like this little game too ;) Game make's me wonder if Im loosing my vision because of the blurring, its in black and white and its Bland I tell ya. The prisoner girl has to find a way out the prison, with out getting caught, if you get caught its straight back to the start again, NO SAVE"S :P http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=661224004 Also good luck trying to open those doors, the controls are not always responding to opening the doors for you, so YES YOU get caught and back to the pen you go. Start again :P I did not enjoy this game, BUT Idle Master certainly did. Wow 14.2 hours game play :O and I actually only played for 20 minutes then uninstalled the game :P [h1] Best 59cents i have ever wasted :P[/h1]

Daughter of Shadows is a puzzle sidescroller that takes inspiration from various SCPs, from the well-known Wiki. As a girl who can mind control any men and then use these men as extra health, use them to operate computer terminals, or to kill women who SCP-029 cannot otherwise affect, your goal is to find two keys and unlock the main facility to be able to escape. The game uses randomly generated rooms so you will not always encounter the same things. The main draw is the many SCPs included. While there are certainly inaccuracies in how they are depicted and how they act, the game does more right than wrong here. You will need to know about most of them, or have the Wiki open to check, to get the full experience though. Downsides are obviously the production values. It is a low budget game with not so pretty art and almost no sound. There is no background music and the sound effects all seem very stock. Recommended for its low price and connections to SCP lore, but if you're not in...

The reviews make this sound like a very interesting game - I bought it, tried it, wanted to like it - couldn't get through any doors. The W key works once out of 50 button mashes. Please update and fix, and I will give a real review later.

A glitchy, ugly mess. As a fellow indie dev however, I understand how hard it is to bring something you love to life. This just isn't a good product of that love. Buy it if you're a die hard SCP fan (I am) but I can't reccomend a much larger audience than that.

it amazes me how many people gives negative review because "bad graphics". the graphics are absolutely fine, nice and pixelated. reminds me of some of old 2d games i used to play. the facility in game is randomly generated. so each time you play its different. it's really fun to explore the place around and find scp's, there's many small info windows about them only real minus i would give is unresponsive W key, expecially when trying to open doors if you are going to buy this you should pick up DLC too, it add some nice stuff otherwise i would give it 7/10, its ok game, doesn't deserve all hate it gets

Daughter of Shadows: An SCP Breach Event is a 2D (2-dimensional) sidescroller where you play as SCP-029, the Daughter of Shadows/Darkness/Night, which can bend men to her will, a core feature of the game. The game starts off with the SCP Foundation having a power outage and you escape your cell as a result of SCP-106 who brings you to his dimension (he is seen in the popular SCP Containment Breach game). Objective: The main objective is escape the facility. There are several familiar SCPs that serve as enemies such as SCP-173 who will snap your neck (most recognizable in SCP: Containment Breach),a bengal cat and several more, as well as regular SCP guards who will try to take you down. You must gather minions to protect you and those can only be men as that is her power. Essentially it's a survival game, as it's a SCP free-for-all, yet you are the only one that really wants to leave. You'll need to get 2 keycards and activate the emergency power to escape which is randomized on ever...

If you ever wanted to play SCP: Containment Breach but you found it too scary or hard (like me, lol), this is a game for you. You play as an SCP who is trying to escape, has limited means of defense and (for some reason) the whole facility is trying to kill you. You will explore, run, dominate, kill, run, hack and steal to be able to get out. All packed in beautiful black, white and grey color combination, weird sounds and controls that will make you question your life decisions. :3 This is not AAA game, but I don't care. I liked it and I think many SCP fans would too if they would try it. Sure it's trying to leech on popularity of SCP, it's not bringing anything too inventive to the table, but there's a HUGE undersupply of mid-level scary SCP games, so I WILL recommend this. And for 1€ it's not unbearable investment even if you'd later find out that it's not your cup of tea. And a one more point; without the DLC the game feels kinda plain and empty, as you miss on a lot of SCPs, ...

2D sidescroller with a certain random element as far as I can tell. It functions alright and provides rather little content (finished it easily within like half an hour or so?) but it certainly does have replay value. Assets look sometimes crude and sometimes out of place as if they were taken from something else, but that said, everything is really FINE for this price tag. No game breaking bugs or anything I could see. It would be nice if you could skip the intro a la the game "SCP Containment Breach" but it really isn't a huge deal. Most of your favorite SCPs will be there (mostly from the Series I as far as I can tell) and trying to kill you just as you could wish for, and it is fun to wander around the (admittedly tiny) complex to find some that you haven't seen yet in previous playthroughs. Most of the more dangerous and active ones will start hounding you outside of their containment areas after being encountered initially (except SCP-106 who is there from the start) and there's ...

The graphics are extremely pixalated, it wouldn't be a problem but you can see where they took an image they made and cut, copy, and pasted which makes it worse than it really is. The tutorial teaches you next to nothing on how to play the game, the keys blend so well into the background I had to teach myself how to enter doors with "w" and while on the topic of entering doors you have to be exactly on the tiniest invisible marker on the door to enter to go to the next room. Be ready to learn to memorize everything because there's no save feature so if you die no matter where you are it's time to start completely over. The story is non existant, it's supposed to be someone's take on a character they made for the S.C.P. universe but it should have stayed that way, just someones story, not all stories are meant to become more than just that, best example of when I'm buying this is The Dark Tower, if you've read the books and seen the movie then you'll know what I mean.
