Fantastic at making the mundane feel terrifying even before anything even happens, with those constant walks across the car park being especially chilling despite nothing happening. The mere act of existing and feeling so vulnerable as you're just exploring the plaza to pass the time being absolutely chilling is a great move in effectively replicating the general sense of anxiety that one can very easily have when walking anywhere alone at night and ended up making for a great bit of atmosphere. I also loved how many different little distractions were scattered around during this section, whether it was the multiple comics, the minigames, or just discovering more context about the laundromat and a string of mysterious killings, it all felt far more fleshed out than I was expecting for a game so small. While a decent portion of the more conventional horror content somewhat paled in comparison to me, despite still having some very strong vibes, the final confrontation was fantastically tense and made the whole thing worth it to me. Worth a play!
Brief horror title done in a grainy PS1 visual style that gives a strong buildup mixed with a strange atmosphere as you interact with the locals but mechanically never really puts you in enough danger which starts to detract from the feeling of being under a current threat.
The main character finds dirty clothes around her apartment as her boyfriend hasn't done the laundry. Needing fresh clothes for a morning interview she finds the apartment's washer broken and is told about an old laundromat that is open 24 hours a day near the edge of town. She decides to take a bus there ignoring the warnings about a serial killer that has been targeting pregnant women. As your clothes wash and dry you are giving time to explore a small area where you can find clues about the past murders and area and talk to some local people often giving off a mixture of a strange or humorous vibe while maybe noticing the same car in the parking lot that you saw when you got on the bus by your apartment.
It's a good environment and visual style that does a lot right but you start to find yourself in situations where in most titles the killer would be stalking you and you would be in active danger and would need to sneak around but as you come to notice that you have no direct threat in these early sections it removes a lot of the possible tension.

Like Night at The Gates of Hell, you get creepy atmosphere, humor, and jump-scares. It's short and sweet.
The scariest game I've ever played
It's a nice and short R rated game, with a nice B-movie mood in it. Several jumpscares, which may be nice if that's what you are looking for. The game improves a lot towards the second half. Gave me the chills at the end. Not bad at all, maybe a little slow at first but nice story overall.
Don't always love jumpscares, but the commitment to them in this game, along with the aesthetic style made me really buy in and have a good time with this one!
You should definetly play it if you like horror b-movies, specially slashers.
scariest thing in this game was the baby crying ambience sounds
Great indie horror.
This game had one of the scariest end sequences to any game I’ve ever played. I’m so glad this was the first Puppet Combo inspired game I played. I bought this game on discount and I will say it’s original price is ridiculous for an hour of playtime
Really good at using waiting and everyday environments to unsettle, great sound design and intensity, but a little jump scare heavy if that isn't your speed. It's a quick and uncomplicated title and a perfect way to spend a night if you're looking for that b-horror movie fix!
Short, sweet, wish it had deeper gameplay but for a retro styled horror game it’s understandable why it doesn’t. Super dope vibes, some solid jump scares where I wasn’t expecting them, and a fun experience.
me cago encima
An atmospheric horror game that came out of nowhere. There's been a serial killer going crazy recently, but you NEED to get your laundry done at the local laundromat. During this time, you'll meet the store owners and shoppers at the local strip mall while your laundry is washing. You'll be reading newspapers and learning from conversations that something dark happened here, but it's up to you to find out what really happened.
For being a relatively short game (I clocked just under 2 hours), I've found myself thinking back in it quite a bit. Definitely recommend if you're into quick horror experiences that are still quite unsettling.

Total grimy/warbled VHS analog-horror throwback with Goldeneye looking characters and a fun nightmarish setting to explore. Laundromats suck ass and I’m so happy I have a portable washing machine in my apartment and don’t need to go to my local one anymore!
This game relies on jumpscares heavily but it’s also good at just being creepy without them too. Definitely feel the hard R rated horror movie influence here, nasty stuff.
A very easy and quick Platinum too, for a couple bucks you get to experience a short little freaky time. It’s like an obscure horror movie you rented from the video store back in the 90s fused with a crappy low budget PC game you found in a bargain bin. Cool shit

BOINGGGG
Ne kadar ani ses veya görüntüyü ucuz korku olarak bulsam da çok başarılı bir yapım özellikle gerici atmosfer konusunda. Sürekli sizi tetikte tutuyor.

A short game, shorter than I expected, but a scary one with a nice plot. It crashed a few times, especially when I tried the Arcade or the portable console games, for some reason. We have a few collectables and objects to interact with, so exploration is recommended, I loved that some of them are readable comic books. I love the visuals, I love games of PS1 graphics style, it does give a creepier vibe in horror games. I confess I got scared a few times, mostly from unexpected jumpscares and the sounds. The game had a few issues with the sound, sometimes it was too loud despite the settings, I hope it gets fixed eventually. Some character models looked funny, especially their faces, it reminded me of the first Max Payne game.
