The Emptiness Deluxe Edition reviews

The Game is still good. It's a hidden object game that has something of the typical Hidden Object Games but also something of early 3D Adeventures. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1579627589 The Story is supposed to tell of a mentally Ill. The House in which he moves symbolizes his Depression, from which he is to find a Way Out if possible. In doing so, he can opt for a light or a dark Side (especially in the Mini-games). At the End of the Game, an Overall Rating comes out whether you've qualified for one or the other or something in between. We find doors locked by seal again and again in the Game. One now goes in search of the Letters of a Magic word in order to break the Seal. Sometimes we look for other Objects as well. They are always the same Rooms plus the newly added Rooms. That sounds easier than it is. While some are quickly found, others often run past them too. The Number of Screens to be searched increases, they are well connected to the Background or just off the usual Point of view. There are also some Mini-games. A few are very simple (that you ask what this is supposed to be), some are very heavy. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1579623197 In This respect, the Gameplay, after a simple Start and some Suspensions, is quite demanding and is not 0815 if you do not expect a classic Adventure or classic Hidden Object Game. Because the Description in the Shop is really way too bombastic, downright misleading. Compared to typical Hidden Object Games and their Audience, the Game is actually provided with good Moments of horror and horror by Jump-scares and Sounds, but it is not, of course, an extremely breathtaking experience that Only the Breasted among us Can play. Also, no Courage or similar Virtues is required to create the Game, at most Endurance. There is also, apart from the Jump-scares, hardly a gloomy atmosphere, rather than a dark One, when the Light fails and you only have to look for the Objects equipped with a Flashlight. I also rarely sat on the Edge of my Chair. While there Are two Levels of difficulty for the Game, this is packed in the Options Menu, which is not accessible from the Start Menu. In any case, I noticed it very late. The Clues also become sparse in normal difficulty over time. So just when the Thing gets more difficult anyway, you can't shorten the Search for last Letters by Clues. There's, well, a Matter of Taste. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1579623864 The Graphics are actually good. Strange that the Game is running in 4:3 format, which is definite outdated. The Control from Screen to Screen is now also a bit out of Fashion, but it actually goes. The Environment is quite elaborate and well designed. So much so even that I would like to assume that this small Development Team may have been supported by the Publisher (pure Guess). Many Jump-scares are accompanied By elaborate Animations that really seem very professional. The Sound is also very good. I used Headphones in part and that was impressive. The Sounds came from variable Locations, and were very good for supporting a horror-like atmosphere. There are almost none speakers. The Control with the Mouse is simple. Pro & Contra: + Part Difficult And Interesting Tasks + Unusual Combination of Two Genres + Good Sounds, Animations and Jumpscares-Arg exaggerated And misleading Description in the Shop-Law nonsensical History-Only 4:3 format Rating: 6/10 The Game will At Steam, currently rated as "Largely negative," and there are good Reasons for doing so. Particularly disturbing perhaps the Discrepancy to The description in the Shop. The Game is more of a Casual Game with all the Sterotypes to be found there. But at least in an unguböhnal Variant. In That respect, it had real Entertainment value for me. Hence my Thumbs up, honest, but also something as a Counterweight. Because it's not bad again.
