TheNightfall

Possibly the most unrelentingly boring game I've ever played, you have bested the Doctor Watson games and that takes a lot of work; this takes the 'explore/get nowhere/backtrack & then a random 'horror' trigger will occur and then you will need to wander around the small map again to find a note or a key which will allow you to get to a note in order to progress, sometimes you look at a clown and that will cause a note to spawn' genre to its absolute limit. This is done in a nice way, the graphics are good, the soundtrack is quite fitting; you can pick up 'Atari 2600' carts and play them on an in-game console along with a number of 'c64' discs which seem to be just interesting visualisations programmed to accurately load in the time it used to take a C64 to load...this is really an odd couple of inclusions & it's the best part of the game. The rest of it is so uncompromisingly boring that it can't be fun. In a forum post the Developer lists the game time as between 6-9 hours; from th...

This game could get good, it could! But for 24.99, I'm not sticking around to find out. Sorry but this is a five dollar game at Maximum. Heck, I've played five dollar games better than this. What a disappointment... SAVE YOUR MONEY!

WORST HORROR GAME EVER.

Oof. Another lackluster game from ViS. I'll start with the negative stuff first to get that out of the way so I can end on a positive note(sort of). <3 The Bad: - The voice acting is horrific and not in a good way. It sounds quite literally like a text to voice program read the script for the entire game and it was just awful. It completely ruined any sense of fear or immersion for me. - Door and cabinet opening simulator. Since most of the progression related events are seem to be on a timer, you will find yourself killing time by opening every drawer, door, window, and cabinet you can find in the house. - Not scary at all. The jumpscares/screamers fell completely flat for me. I wasn't afraid while I was playing this, I was mostly just aggravated because of my commitment to completing games that I start. The Meh: - Candles/Flashlight are useless with the in game brightness slider. - Achievements aren't really something that I want to complete, which is unusual for me. Some o...

This game seems to take the build up approach in horror. There hasn't really been a major scare that I have seen yet but the atmosphere does get scarier through out the games progression. There are also some comic relief bits the game has sprinkled in there like Easter eggs. I am iffy on the price but it has good graphics and a promising horror setting. I would only recommend it if you have the money to spare I think a good price would have been $15 for this game. But as always you can judge for yourself by watching me be stupid while playing here is a video of me playing for around half an hour condensed into 15 mins https://youtu.be/r-UPPqUYmJg

Good game. I liked it. The negative things I have heard are way too harsh. This game looked pretty nice and ran well on PC with high settings. Much better then videos of the ps4 version I've seen, which looked bad. The story wasn't the focus but there was enough there to keep you going. The sound and sound effects were very well done and really helped build the atmosphere. It is a scary game so the scares are important and this game did a nice job. I won't spoil it but there was a few moments that creeped me out, a few moments that made me jump, and one that flat out scared me, I play a lot of horror games so that's tough to do. They do a good job building the scary tension as time goes on. The game is basically an adventure game style game. So whether you like those kinds of games will determine how much you like the gameplay. There were times that I just could not figure out what to do and had to look up the puzzle solution for that night. But after looking it up I thought to myse...

Does not start in VR. Does not even have such option. I only bought playing it in VR.

Makes me wanna delete this game permanently!

Ok, I completed the game and I should say that it wasn't bad, I mean I loved the atmosphere and the dolls, and I find clowns scary. The dolls are absolutely amasing - they are worth watching. I loved that there were many sounds through the game and the screamers for sure. I didn't like the fact that there are not enough candles in the game but too many batteries (I haven't used any). I wanted to make the house at least a little lighter but I couldn't find any candles by the end of the game. Maybe it was a special feature - I don't know. And as for the soundtrack - I absolutely hated it, I'm sorry. It would be better if there were only some kind of music without words. It ruins the impression. In general, I recommend the game.

Yes, I would recommend this game. For some bizarre reason. It's extremely goofy, it's not particularly scary, it's horribly paced and the general gameplay concept of 'wander around the house until something happens' is just... it hurts my brain. But the house itself is gorgeous, the sound design is pretty decent and the atmosphere is, at times, thick. There are also some choices that were made here that are... well, I don't really have the words. They defy reason. I want to say what they are, as they're just little throwaway moments, but it's these moments that made the experience of playing Nightfall so memorable, and to talk about them would spoil it. Suffice to say, I was surprised on multiple occasions by some genuinely weird stuff that happened in this house. In case you were unaware, you play someone's retarded (mentally handicapped. There, Steam, can I say that?) Mom who gets locked in her own house and doesn't know how to use windows to escape. She drinks all the soda, burns ...
