This game Really got my blood pumpin by the end, the Dread was AMAZING
Very fun game, I really had a good time playing it !
Point and click de toda la vida. Cortito, con una temática de suspense y terror pero sin ser tan hijo de puta de difícil como los grandes clásicos.
Buena ambientación con un arte hermoso y un detallado efecto atmosférico para darnos la sensación de estar en la nieve o a oscuras en una mina subterránea.
No hay sangre ni vísceras ni otros elementos fuertes. Pero tampoco existe una historia muy profunda. Hay muchas cosas que quizás no se explican muy bien del todo, pero para lo que quiere mostrar el juego, que es entretener en poco tiempo, lo logra muy bien.
Recomendado para echarle un rato de chill que no requiera muchos sobresaltos.
6/10
This was an amazing game! I loved the art, music, and sounds, it all went really well together
I enjoyed it thorougly, I hope you'll make more of thi games.
its not updated for mac so we cant play it plz do something!
Me too!! Was really looking forward to playing :(
I really enjoyed playing this, and it absolutely had some good scares!
I LOVE this game. The art style, the audio, the odd sounds of the creature at times, everything is AMAZING. This is one of my favorite point and click horror games as far as atmosphere, and art style. It's shorter than most horror games but I love every second of it.
That was great! Excellent job, love point and click games
this was so good:)
It was short, but I enjoyed, bc I like these "old" p&c games, horrors and winter, ha-ha.
I enjoyed the game. Felt on edge the whole time
shortness immediacy arranges forward narrative introspective
gradual discovery entangles pressing need cultivating escape
journey visual progression and endure complex ideas
combination solitary fear to combined detrimental events
I really like this type of games and this game definitely didn't disappoint I really enjoyed it from start to finish
Would appreciate an update for imac I too have the M1 chip says it needs update..would love to play this game ..thanks in advance
hi i was trying to download this on my MacBook because it seems super cool but it says it needs to be updated to work on my MacBook, I'm not sure if its because I have the M1 chip but ya thank u <3
Hello! Where did you make those photos of road, snow and mine?
scary
The appeal was trying to get out and survive alone yet not alone being hunted by your own frayed emotions and something more sinister. I also liked the bit of vintage appeal you put in the game with a flashback to some items from the 1990's. Shiver made me shiver I felt cold and chilled to the bone in some areas and what was watching me from the darkness.
I highly recommend this game.
Amazing Game. Loved to play it. Thanks a lot.
Fantastic probably my favorite itch game so far
awesome! really creepy! An improvement on Cozy in terms of content and puzzles. I liked the radical yet classic take on a rectangle joke being used again lol
Pretty cool game. Tanks for the experience !
I played this right after getting done with Cozy and I was not disappointed with this amazing spiritual follow up. The visuals were simply incredible, atmosphere was foreboding, and the story was intriguing. All of these factors made for a terrific experience, thanks for that by the way, and I hope you keep up the awesome work.
The story was wonderful, the art was great, and for the most part, the game was relatively easy to figure out. Only part that slowed me up was needing to find a flat surface to make a distraction. It didn't exactly click to me that the flipped vehicle was considered a flat surface. But when everything came together, it really was an awesome experience I'd for sure recommend!
Great work!
This was pretty cool, I enjoyed it!
I had a great time playing this game ! Just the right amount of puzzle-difficulty and creepy stuff that I needed today!
Excellent job !
Hello, I'm a playful user of this game. By the way, a streamer is planning to play this game soon, can you translate it into Korean? I'd appreciate it if you could.
Not bad, not bad at all. The graphics were in the realm of pleasing, in fact that was one of the reasons I chose to play this game. I had one good actual jump scare that put a little jolt through my heart... and that was all I needed to be impressed. Although the whole time I am going deeper and deeper into the mine, I cannot understand why I would be so stupid? It worked out I guess..... Oh wait it didn't...
Thanks Dude... that was awesome!
This is such an improvement upon Cozy. Graphically it's gorgeous, the amount of detail and work put into this really draws you into the world. The horror factor is about equivalent to cozy, once again succeeding in making the player feel nervous about what might happen than about what is happening.
A great game.
i love this game wonderful atmosphere and story
What a fantastic game that was.Beautiful artstyle, great atmosphere, good scares (some of them got me really good, puzzles were great too, really enjoyed it overall, and I'm looking forward to whatever game you guys make next
Here's my playthrough for anyone curious
That was awesome! Great puzzles, beautiful art work and top notch sound design/music. Thank you very much for the game! Here's my little playthrough (Polish language) Cheers!
