  • The game features a unique and appealing comic book art style that captures the Creepshow aesthetic well.
  • Voice acting and sound design contribute positively to the game's atmosphere and mood.
  • The first story and some puzzles provide an enjoyable and nostalgic horror experience reminiscent of Creepshow's style.
  • The game is very short with only two main stories, leading to an abrupt and unsatisfying ending that feels incomplete.
  • Gameplay is often repetitive, clunky, and suffers from technical issues including bugs, glitches, and poor optimization.
  • The stories and puzzles lack depth and engagement; some puzzles are confusing or tedious, and the narrative fails to deliver meaningful or memorable horror elements.

  • story

    69 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    16% positive mentions, 77% neutral mentions, 7% negative mentions

    The story aspect receives mixed feedback: the first story is praised for its creepy, classic anthology vibe and engaging plot, though sometimes repetitive; the second story is seen as weaker, rushed, and less satisfying, with some confusing or tasteless elements; overall, the overarching narrative feels incomplete, brief, and lacking depth, with linear decisions and no meaningful endings, leaving many players hoping for more content and polish in future expansions.

    • “The first story was my favorite.”
    • “An interesting and unsettling story that feels like the anthology shows from the 90's/00's, like Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark, and Tales from the Cryptkeeper.”
    • “The story lines are fantastic and remain true to the Creepshow formula.”
    • “The main story should have been more elaborated upon with dialogue options that influenced what happened, along with other endings; show what happened to the other characters, not just a brief glimpse and a still shot.”
    • “Decisions are linear, nothing much else to explore or do, no multiple endings, second story was dry and rushed while the first seemed to drag on forever.”
    • “Despite having the framing device story, and the two stories that you play through, each feels like they are missing something, part of the story that was tossed aside to make it more like a game or something.”

  • graphics

    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    52% positive mentions, 34% neutral mentions, 14% negative mentions

    The game's graphics stand out for their distinctive comic book art style, capturing the aesthetic fans expect and praised for its visual appeal and thematic fit. While generally well-executed without performance issues, some technical limitations like screen aspect ratio handling and a sense of rushed polish were noted. Overall, the graphics effectively convey the intended atmosphere despite some minor presentation flaws.

    • “The only thing it absolutely nails is the art style the series is known for.”
    • “I loved the art style and how it fit in perfectly with a Creepshow comic or TV series.”
    • “The art style is great, I haven't run into any issues with performance or anything, and the style has the Creepshow DNA 100%.”
    • “The art style we know and love was there, but this game seems rushed and half finished.”
    • “The concept and the art style have a lot to offer but I have to be honest this game fell on its face a bit.”
    • “A lot of visuals were designed specifically for 16:9, which means that certain backgrounds, overlays, etc. will cut off and still reveal the scene on the sides if your monitor is too wide.”

  • gameplay

    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    25% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 25% negative mentions

    The gameplay is generally simple and straightforward, featuring point-and-click mechanics, item gathering, and minor puzzles, often resembling a visual novel. While not groundbreaking or highly polished, it effectively complements the well-crafted stories despite being considered short and somewhat limited in interactivity.

    • “The stories are very well done and unexpected, and I genuinely love the gameplay style and graphics.”
    • “Gameplay involves lots of walking around, talking to other characters, gathering items, and solving minor puzzles.”
    • “While it has very simple and straightforward gameplay, it made up for it by giving some really good creepshow stories.”
    • “It has little to no gameplay, the stories were elementary, I guess the first one was okay.”
    • “Like... no gameplay whatsoever.”
    • “The gameplay is simple point and click with some puzzles, but does feel more like a visual novel at times.”

  • music

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    29% positive mentions, 28% neutral mentions, 43% negative mentions

    Users have mixed feelings about the music, with some praising it and others feeling it lacks the evocative quality and authenticity of the original score, particularly criticizing its "vaguely 80's" style as insufficient for the series' roots. However, the loading menu music has been noted to generate excitement.

    • “I really loved the music here.”
    • “Loading menu and music are getting me super excited.”
    • “Music was nowhere near as evocative as the original score, which made me very sad.”
    • “"Vaguely 80's" is not enough for a series whose roots started in the era your music tries to emulate, especially when the music from that era far surpasses what you've presented us with.”
    • “Please make a DLC with more chapters, a better soundtrack, and either expand on the original characters or bring in new ones.”

  • stability

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game experiences significant stability issues, with some users encountering frequent bugs shortly after starting, leading to refunds. However, others report minimal glitches limited to story elements.

    • “This game is so buggy.”
    • “However, I ended up refunding my game because it was super buggy after only a few minutes.”

  • humor

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor in the game is mixed, with some finding it fun and fitting for a comedy-horror style, while others feel it lacks memorable or genuinely funny moments, instead perceiving unintended mistakes rather than intentional humor.

    • “Fun, funny, and spooky!”

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is considered monotonous and tedious, with low stakes due to the character never taking damage. This makes the experience feel dull and repetitive for players.

    • “The stories themselves (only two) were droll and in some places, tedious to get through.”
    • “Your character, in every situation, never gets hurt or takes damage, so you realize fast how monotonous and tedious this game is, and how low the stakes are.”

    • “There's a nice, creepy atmosphere.”
    • “While only having completed one of the three stories, they have nailed the atmosphere, comic book style, and the creep-out factor.”
