Decay: The Mare is an interesting and sometimes slightly scary first person point n click horror game, where you play as a patient at a mental institution. You explore the ward and eventually get deeper into what's actually going on...
The gameplay is simple, classic "frame to frame" movement with point n click elements. It's a step up from full Hidden Object at least. The puzzles are okay, a lot of backtracking but the areas are small enough that it works out. There's not much story, but let's just say that the end actually took me by surprise... Oh, might be worth mentioning that some jump scares does exist!
Recommended for both new players and previous fans of the genre!

this one sucked
extremely low res and blurry prerendered graphics that made seeing anything hard, gave up partway through and turned to a walkthrough to at least finish the story
not worth it

A decent point and click horror game with an ending that I wasn't 100% expecting. There are some narrative elements that are a real stretch. There is a fair amount of tedium that comes with this genre but the puzzles were clever, just difficult enough. The horror did not feel cheap or heavy handed.
Very unexpectedly for me, as a non-fan of the point-and-click genre, the game dragged on until the very end, a lot of emotions, scary moments, and not too easy puzzles. The presence of the Russian language is a big plus, since there is a lot of text, and most actions will have to be performed based on inscriptions from newspapers and pieces of paper. A little masterpiece for me :)
While it feels dated, the puzzles and scares felt pretty good (with a couple hiccups here and there) Also until literally the end I didn't really what the story was going for but it tied up nicely in the finale.
