  • story
    128 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is described as intriguing and layered, with a mix of horror elements and hidden lore that encourages replayability to uncover its secrets. However, many players feel the narrative is too short and could benefit from more depth and detail, particularly in future DLCs. While some appreciate the unique premise and character development, others criticize it for relying on familiar horror tropes and lacking emotional engagement.

    • “Hope to hear more...one day...the lore is really cool, and I'm curious to see where the story could go.”
    • “This is a really well-made game, the storyline is immaculate, the characters are very cute (until they're not), and overall it's a beautiful little game.”
    • “I had a blast playing through Andy's Apple Farm, it's a short, but sweet horror game that can be genuinely disturbing at times, the hidden story elements are very entertaining to find, and it has some very likable characters!”
    • “The story seems very lackluster, very stereotypical analog horror.”
    • “Because there's no characters for me to get attached to here even in the smallest of ways, including Andy himself, and I am a very character-driven person; there's no real reason for me to want to understand more of their story or wonder what brought them to where they are now.”
    • “The game uses the tired trope of 'children's educational game has a scary backstory' that was never scary in the first place and will never be scary for the rest of time.”
  • gameplay
    32 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is primarily focused on exploration and uncovering lore, which can lead to repetitive experiences as players replay the game to piece together the story. While the controls are simple and the game offers some scares, many find the gameplay simplistic and lacking depth, resulting in a less engaging experience overall. With around 40 minutes to 2 hours of content, players express hope for more substantial gameplay in future chapters.

    • “Most of the gameplay comes from replaying it over and over again to try to discover 'the loooooooore!', as one YouTuber once put it.”
    • “[*][i]The game is minigame and exploration-focused[/i] - the game wants you to think about the setting more so than the mechanics, and this may grate against some more 'hardcore' horror gamers.”
    • “I'm curious to see where future chapters take the story and mechanics; it definitely has promise!”
    • “Most of the gameplay comes from replaying it over and over again to try to discover 'the lore!', as one YouTuber once put it.”
    • “Once you actually manage to piece together all the secret backstory, however, you will have played through the game so many times that the gameplay gets boring.”
    • “Add in this lack of intrigue with how simplistic and boring the gameplay is, and I'm given absolutely nothing to latch onto as a player, no reason to want to know more and no reason to want to replay just for the experience either.”
  • graphics
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics effectively capture a nostalgic Atari/Coleco/C64 aesthetic, with a charming and thematic art style that transitions from cute to terrifying.

Overall, the graphics contribute significantly to the game's appeal, enhancing its spooky narrative and engaging atmosphere.

    • “Excellent graphics, atmosphere, and the voice acting fits.”
    • “I love the retro aesthetic of the game; it really felt like I was playing something from my childhood in the 90s.”
    • “This could be because I was running the graphics in high quality mode, but it seems like something the developers could fix.”
    • “The art style is silly and cute, but when it turns dark, it's terrifying, very similar to The Walten Files!”
    • “Gameplay: 6/10 (they don't focus much on the gameplay as much as they do on the spooks and lore) looks: 7/10 (love the look; also make sure you play low graphic mode, makes the game look better than high) spooks: 8/10 (it can get pretty scary at points.) overall: 8/10 (note this review might change when chapter 2).”
  • atmosphere
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Quickly becomes creepy and downright disturbing at times and the atmosphere is great as you quickly realize the game is completely screwed.”
    • “Nice and eerie atmosphere that actually scared me.”
    • “Jump scares are minimal - the game relies on building atmosphere with creepy visuals and plot points to give the player a good spook. I'd say the plot is 'creepypasta' level on the scare factor, which I enjoyed.”
    • “I love the atmosphere, and not gonna lie, I was a bit of a scared little man.”
  • music
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received positive feedback, with many praising its fantastic soundtrack and ability to enhance the overall atmosphere, particularly in intense moments.

    • “No way am I sitting through that Moon Girls song game over and over listening to her repeat herself and the song while I hit the wrong damn keys.”

  • stability
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is plagued by numerous glitches and bugs, leading to a frustrating experience for players, including instances of being stuck in dialogue and even causing system crashes. While some glitches are intended to enhance the horror experience, many users find them excessive and disruptive, indicating a significant need for stability improvements. Overall, the game's stability issues detract from its potential enjoyment and immersion.

    • “This is an extremely boring, painfully un-scary and buggy 'horror' game with its 'hidden truth' being thrown at you with all the subtlety of a shotgun blast to the face.”
    • “The game has good lore but that's about all there is. Even without the glitches that are there intentionally, there are still a lot of bugs. I was stuck on a piece of dialogue for 10 minutes and I had to shut down my whole computer to fix it. Also, the hide and seek mini-game is bugged out for me too.”
    • “Now I know this game glitches out intentionally to mess with you, but twice while playing in Windows 10 I blue screened out with an 'unexplained error'... Is that part of the game, or is there some kind of memory leak that disables my actual computer?”
  • replayability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game offers a mixed experience in terms of replayability. While some players appreciate the opportunity to uncover hidden lore and secret cutscenes, others note that the limited playtime diminishes the incentive to replay. Many express a desire for additional content, such as a sequel, to enhance the replay value further.

    • “With a mystery yet to be solved and a great emphasis on replayability to get all the hidden lore to piece the story together, this is a fantastic little game that I can't wait to see more of.”
    • “The games themselves aren't anything crazy exciting or interesting, but there is replay value if you want to see all the secret cutscenes.”
    • “I would very much recommend this game, but it has very little play time. The replayability is good, and we need chapter 2 though; overall, it's a very scary good game.”
