Visage

I love horror, but I’ll admit, I have a hard time fully immersing myself sometimes (or maybe I’m just a bit of a scaredy cat). Visage feels heavily inspired by PT from way back when, and honestly, it does that legacy justice. The game gives you multiple paths and stories to experience, ranging from absolutely horrific to “okay, that spooked me but I can breathe again.” No matter where you are, the ambiance is always there, keeping you on edge. The visuals do a ton of heavy lifting, the house feels too real, like it has a life of its own. Pair that with masterful sound design and you’ve got a recipe for constant paranoia. This is one of those horror games that sticks with you long after you turn it off. It’s slow, deliberate, and absolutely drenched in atmosphere. The jump scares? Brutal, some of the best I’ve ever seen. It’s a masterclass in oppressive ambience, a real psychological gauntlet. Gameplay is methodical but rewarding. You’ll explore, manage sanity, and ...

i love horror and psych horror games, but i utterly despise these F'ing zero direction games. walking around not knowing where to F'ing go or what to F'ing do pisses me off. i spent 95% of these games guessing where to go, opening hundrends of doors, running in circles, guessing what to do, oh i found a key, ok i need to find that door, 3hrs later i find the door. the amount of running around with these games, it severely destroys the immersion. im at the point where, those zombie people are in front of the elevator, and i have no clue where to go or what the F to do, THERE IS NO DIRECTION, no hint. EDIT: retry #2. the key in front of the elevator, WAS NOT THERE BEFORE. so i managed to get as far as, those zombies shasing you in hospital then you get in that room with drawn eyes on mirror reflection walls, and then in the house where the crutch guy chases you. How The F is he catching up to me whilst im running, where do i go? then when he catches me, the last save was back ...

Besides the annoying Dark Souls format cut scenes it's wonderful.

Good story but clunky gameplay and very slow.

So scary I close my eyes about it. But then I have to open my eyes to keep playing. *Shrugs* I ain't buggin' though.

This game actually gave me the creeps. The jump scares are very unexpected, truly activates your fear of the unknown.

Overall a good horror game, pretty difficult so have a cute girl help you with a walk through if you need. Can be a bit tedious at times. Also the control scheme is fucking ass. it's honestly horrible. Graphics are great, scares are great, monsters are ok, lucy's chapter is BY FAR the best. Many puzzles in the game are hard to figure out with out external help. My biggest gripe is the ending of this game, all ending are ass. Honestly, they don't reveal any more exposition than you already know. They are both vague, rushed, and frankly just empty and lackluster. If you buy this game, you will enjoy it, but be dissapointed in how it ends. Proceed with caution.

I really had to psyche myself up to get through portions of this game. There were moments where I didn't play for days at a time because I couldn't handle the stress the game managed to induce in me, but I kept on because I wanted to unravel the mystery of seeing what happens next to our character. Bravo SadSquare! That being said this game perfectly succeeds at what it is and that is being very scary and atmospheric. Gameplay wise there ARE some obtuse parts that felt a bit tedious. Thank goodness for guides but overall I heartily recommend this to anyone who is not faint of heart.
