this was a good play, had a lot of potential. they could've explored so much from the lore because it intrigued me so much, but they went all over the place? plus the combat was a bit wonky? nevertheless, the game has a cosmic horror concept/elements to it so i'm gonna give it at least two stars, half star because of my girl jess, kind of liked her. no comment for the ending, though. overall, playing this was just average, wish they focused on the plot.
A really quick game if you sit down and focus, The Chant Has a lot of potential, that is squandered by poor gameplay and story.
Not bad, not great. Game suffers from trying to do too much at once, the story should have had more focus on developing it and bonding with the people and less time on action sequences. Its a short game, worth playing but get on a sale not full price.
GOOP alan wake brought to you by shudder is a compellingly stupid idea but the monster/horror design is total penis sadly. like ... hitting giant toads with a fucking sage stick? who the hell came up with this shit. Cannot recommend
Das Spiel ist eine okaye und solide Horrorerfahrung mit einer vorhersehbaren Story und soliden Gameplay. Kann man machen, muss man aber auch nicht unbedingt.
I don't understand some of the negative reviews of this game, I quite enjoyed it. It wasn't perfect or even had one of those triple A games quality but it is playable.
The game takes place on a remoted island called "Glory Island" in the middle of nowhere. You play Jess, who's still dealing with her sister's death and was invited to join the Prismic Science Retreat by her old friend Kim.
Some of the monster designs were impressive, including the final boss. And the level designs for the Gloom realm are the best; the atmosphere they create will give you that spooky, unsettling sense. The weapons used for this game are so creative, you could use salts, essential oils, sage sticks, and others that suit the entire theme. To be honest, the entire concept of this game reminded me of Stranger Things because the opponents appear to be related to the show. Even the music gave me retro vibes.
The combat and crafting systems were subpar. I feel like some of the ingredients are TOO few that sometimes you have no choice but to substitute the rest of the weapons you have (I'm looking at you twigs).
The puzzles were a meh, I mean there weren't a lot of it and its not difficult. I think you just have to keep in mind that there will be enemies appearing whenever you are doing the puzzles which is quite annoying because the supplies are limited too.
When I played this, I got the Spiritual Ending which made me curious about the other two endings, so I had to check it. And I think the ending I got is the best one among the rest, I feel like that's how her story really happened and it adds more points for having a Classic Horror ending.
Despite the negative reviews, I feel like you should try this game whenever you have the chance.
