Haunted House
About
Chills and stealthy thrills abound In Haunted House, a reimagining of the classic Atari adventure! Players take control of Lyn Graves, the precocious niece of legendary treasure hunter Zachary Graves. Lyn visits her uncle’s mansion with her closest compatriots, only to find the house overrun with ghouls and monsters who quickly grab and spirit away her friends. In order to free her uncle and her friends, and capture all the supernatural foes, Lyn must find the shattered pieces of a magical urn and put them back together.
Through procedurally generated room layouts, shifting walls, unpredictable enemy placements, and unique ghostly encounters, Lyn must creep, sneak, and dash her way through hordes of ghouls and eerie ectoplasms in order to locate her friends and uncle. Each urn shard is fiercely guarded by a bone-chilling boss — with 3D isometric stealth gameplay, Lyn must think on her feet to conquer each challenge. When she gets knocked out by a shadowy specter, she winds up back at the Haunted House’s entrance and must face an entirely new floor layout and enemy placement, ensuring each run is unique.

Features
- Resurrected Roguelite: Haunted House doubles down on stealth and mystifying challenges while adding roguelite elements, ensuring no two runs are the same.
- All-Ages Thrill Ride: The whimsical, cartoonish art style only thinly veils the chills and thrills in Haunted House! Expertly riding the line between goofy and spooky, Haunted House features primarily stealth-based gameplay and light combat sequences.
- Unlockable Characters: As Lyn explores the Haunted House, she’ll free her trapped friends, who become playable characters you can use to dive deeper into the mansion. Each friend possesses different stats, so depending on who you explore the mansion with, it’ll be a new experience!
- Atari Easter Eggs: The game is full of collectibles and lore based on the original Haunted House and other classic favorites from Atari’s golden age.
- Sneaky Shivers: With combat de-emphasized, players must focus on stealth movement and solving challenges unseen in the shadows, along with utilizing the arsenal of traps and items at their disposal to distract the ghoulies hunting Lyn. Lyn must collect gems to power up the skills and perks that make her that much stronger during the next trip through the mansion’s labyrinth.

A fun little game when you have time to lose. Quite repetitive since we always do the same thing on each level, the lack of a map makes us totally lose the notion of orientation. An end a little too simple to my taste for having crossed the whole House in the middle of mind of all kinds.
Otherwise a little game to have in his pocket since it is a remake of a great classic of Atari (although they could have improved it still a chouilla).
To do at least once in his life...

I don't like to give a negative Review often enough without having tested an SPiel!!!
Unfortunately, it is impossible for me to write another one, because the Game shoots my System every time!
In other words: I suddenly run down the left and can neither control nor finish the Game, just turn on and out the Light of the Light source ... I finished the first 2 Levels, further I didn't come up with whether the Story is good and whether the Gameplay will be better than before I can't say ...
If it's because of my 64 bit System, which is not officially supported, but according To Disskusion with a lower Resolution than 1600 x ... Works, then I've had pitch.
Since there are no Achievements, or Maps, it is also less of a Problem ...
Should anyone invest the 6 Euros, however, they should expect to play an unplayable Game, in whose Bug you can only press the Restart button ...

Haunted House pays tribute to the original classic, published on the Atari 2600 in 1981. This new edition of the very first game of survival and horror is aimed at a more family-oriented audience.
In this game, players will have to try to solve the mysteries that haunt graves ' mansion by embodying the grandchildren of Samuel Silverspring, the same one who disappeared without leaving traces in this evil abode 30 years ago. Hunted by voracious rats, bats, frightful skeletons and ghosts, players will have to explore about twenty levels alone or in pairs, in order to get their hands on the four lost fragments of a magical URN. In the early stages, players will not be able to battle the evil creatures, they will have no choice but to flee. As they explore this vast mansion, players will have to enlighten themselves using various light sources to find mystical works and mysterious artifacts. Each source (matches, cellphones, candles, etc.) that can be used for a limited period of time, inventory management, reduced to only two items, will be required. Some items may reveal secret paths (lantern) or injure enemies (torch). In addition to searching the premises to find keys, players will also have to operate hidden levers to open doors. The game will probably interest the youngest, who will be able to play with a parent.
Positives: + true to the concept of origin + adapted for younger (non-violent) + included a cooperative mode with two players negative points:-rather expensive, $19.99 on steam-poorly adapted controls on PC-trophies to be recovered without interest
