Hello everyone! So I bought the game due to the Positive Reviews, and packed some Hope into the Game! I really wanted to give the Game a Chance, but now after 11 Hours of Play I have lost my Mood. The Game has a really shitty graphics (Too dark, Slurred Textures, everything is Pixelated and lacks Animations everywhere that contribute to the Mood) Yes the Game may have been very much Already under its Belt for a few Days, but for me it is to today's point of view Just not playable with Fun anymore. The Gameplay is terrible in my Opinion night (how to Run how to connect things, Analyze texts, etc.) The Storry is Confus and gives you no Clear Line I know after 11 Hours still not yet what it is all about. (And there is far too much Text to Read with some info that you don't need and just explore the Decoration. The Game doesn't get creepy for me in a single Place. (What may be because of the Graphic above) The Dialogues are Okey, but certainly only if you are even better used to. Music and Sound Accompaniment wasn't really bad, but that's broken by the other Facts. The Puzzles are too abstract for me and put too much around the Corner thinking ahead. While I played the Game, only the Thought I spent on It made me play a little further, but now I don't like there are any more games that can do better. So The Game totally Failed me!

(+) The Vibe is really creepy, beautiful in this Game. As an H. P. Lovecraft fan, you definitely get your Money's worth here. There are two to three middleweight jumpscares, apart from that, the Horror is more subtle And generated by the sounds and Atmospheric Soundtrack, which often gives you a distressing feel. The Story is confusing, mysterious and sinister; Anyone expecting a Resolution Scenario à la Sherlock Holmes will not find it here. But This makes up the Lovecraft atmosphere and makes you think about the Story for a long time after the Game ... The innovative Idea of also having Hints (To gather thoughts) in the Inventory, which in turn can be combined with Objects etc., is in principle very good. The Game Graphics confused me a bit and I first made the Picture brighter, then I got into the surreal Glow and the Darkness (Only I omitted the constant Noise) and didn't regret it-you feel like you're in a Book by Lovecraft , the Colors and Effects capture the Mood terrific. Those who like Scratches will also like this Game. :) (-) Unfortunately, the Background in the Documents only partially worked for me, so not all Achievments could be unlocked and you could not find all The Clues that are important for further Resolution. Some Documents could not be deleted at all, although References were to be found in them. Still, you can finish the Game. In General, the Background in the Documents (although it is a good Idea) is not well solved, as you have to emphasize EXAKT what the Developers have considered (sometimes a special Word). This was not really intuitively solvable and rather frustrating. The Controls in the Menu are not particularly intuitive and somewhat bulky.
