It let's me lick everything

This is an insane amount of dumb fun and I love every bit of it.

As someone who never watched the show, I didn't know what to expect.

What I got was a hilarious romp through a choose-your-own-adventure. It's real good fun and a great laugh. Highly recommended.

The game itself is mostly puzzle-based and walking simulator, with some combat thrown in. However, it's the presentation that sells the game. The way it communicates psychosis, voice-hearing and hulllicinations is amazing, and it makes you question what is and is not real in Senua's world.

This plays very similarly to Elder Signs, but removes the issue of the hidden RNG. You can see your dice rolls, on physics-enabled dice. With the factor at being able to call for BS RNG, this game is a case of what-you-see-is-what-you-get. What you get, is an addictive game that is challenging, frustrating, and a ton of fun.

A somewhat varied and enjoyable game. If you're up to kill a couple of hours for $5, you really can't go wrong here. (And no, it's not MLP-related.)

An excellent Haunted House experience. The environments are well crafted, and the sound design is wonderful. The scares are often creative, if not sometimes a little cheap. This game is more 'haunted house' than anything else, as you meander from room to room, experience scares, and move to another room. If that's an experience you enjoy, then this is worth checking out. If you're looking for a monster to chase you around, hide mechanics and an interactive story, then you're going to be disappointed.

I can't decide whether this game is supposed to have a particular style, or the design of it was meant to irritate people. Unfortunately for me, it's the latter. If it's a style choice, I don't get it.
Above all, the sound and music in this game is grating at best. I can't handle more than a few minutes of it.

This game is fairly mediocre in all regards.

The game itself is very straightforward and offers no real challenge. With a lack of any different mode or difficult, you're stuck with the same game and level for every game.

Let me start with this: This game is good in its own right. The story is sweet little thing, the graphics are good, and the amount of detail put into this house is just fantastic. From these things, it gets my reccomendation.

However, this game, for the same reasons stated above, falls short of expectations and feels like a waste of some serious potential. This game had the set up and the soundscape for a fantastic horror game. The intro feels like the beginning of something truly scary. However, it devolves quickly into a slice-of-life story, with no real surprises.

Get the game while it's on sale, particularly for its length. But, nevertheless, get this game.
