Fear & Hunger is an incredible mixture of RPG and horror with lite roguelike elements. Your bones will be broken, limbs sawed off, spirit crushed, eyes pecked out, and life force siphoned out of you - and you will love every second of it.
This game is exceptionally punishing and unforgiving, to an almost unfair degree. Nearly every encounter can end with your untimely demise if you dare to take so much as even one wrong step, or if luck simply turns away from you. Every resource is scarce and darkness is pitch-black. But this game is not purely unfair - there is always a possibility for success, however you will need a lot of trial and error to know how to properly navigate dungeons of fear and hunger. This game is specifically designed to induce dread and suspense into the player using game mechanics, and it does not shy away from the most cruel and low ways to do it. It is designed as a macabre puzzle for you to throw yourself onto its bloodied spikes again and again, to constantly make new characters and lead them to their doom. And this is beautiful - there are very few games that can achieve THIS level of tension, even if at the expense of some convenience. Art, sound design and storytelling of the game is also very good and enhances these feelings.
There are downsides to this harshness - the game really loves to waste your time due to easy deaths and restricted saves, but I think it's forgivable, considering how strong its good qualities are.
This is a must-have for anyone interested in dark, morbid, unconventional and just weird games.

esse é o jogo mais traiçoeiro já feito.
This is a splendid mix of dungeon crawling and survival horror. As brutal as this game may be, it is not impossible to overcome the extreme adversity thrown at you, it is just a matter of learning how to play the game correctly. A morbid and fascinating world filled with enticing lore awaits those brave enough to make this journey. This is one of the greatest games that I have ever played.
Genuinely really unique game. I dont think im a dungeon explorer gamer but this game just straight up has goated mechanics and makes this game something different. and on top of this its genuinely super scary and unsettling. not for everyone but goddamn its good
i am NEVER going to france bro what the FUCK is this
Aprendi a gostar mais e mais ao longo da jogatina, quanto mais você aprende mais você é capaz de moldar a masmorra ao seus desejos, que é talvez tudo que eu quero num jogo, a curva de aprendizado satisfatória.
Mas o negócio é que essa curva é tudo menos suave nesse jogo, não tenha medo de pesquisar dicas ou mesmo "trapaças", o jogo é cruel com você e você precisa de tudo possível pra sobreviver.
Acho que é esse aspecto que mais me prendeu, a grossa atmosfera e narrativa interessante e diferente tematicamente, não é o tipo de jogo que cai da árvore então ele se mantém atraente durante toda a duração.
Problemas de bugs, balanceamento e polimento são inevitáveis com um time pequeno desses e eu tô mais que disposto a perdoar caso o design em si for bom, que, de forma geral é.
