  • gameplay
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally simple and straightforward, focused on exploring a two-level mansion to gather items and perform an exorcism ritual. However, it suffers from buggy mechanics, outdated visuals, and tedious tasks like searching numerous spots for keys with slow progress bars. Despite its unpolished nature, some players find the gameplay enjoyable and engaging.

    • “Apart from that the game is actually more focused on gameplay and scares.”
    • “The gameplay is both simple and straightforward; you run around the two-level mansion, gathering needed items and setting up for the exorcism ritual.”
    • “This is an alright, 30-60 minute game with simple mechanics.”
    • “It's buggy, the visuals are outdated, and the gameplay is as basic as it gets.”
    • “Look for candles, place candles in certain areas (looking for place), look for ritual altar in order and mash spacebar, look for keys in 20+ different spots (this part is the worst game mechanic ever) like wtf.”
    • “Another very bad game mechanic is the part where you need to look for 3 keys out of dozens of search spots, and you have to click and hold your left mouse button, waiting for a long progress bar to fill every time, only to see a message that says empty.”
  • story
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally viewed as weak and uninspired, with some finding it boring and lacking depth. While the game has a creepy atmosphere and interesting concept, the narrative is quite linear and minimal, leaving players wanting more substance.

    • “A fairly linear story with a good concept that unfolds through a sequence of events.”
    • “Creepy dolls and unsettling noises create an eerie atmosphere, as you complete typical fetch quests like gathering candles and making seance circles, blending horror with gameplay.”
    • “The game features a half decent indie-horror story that complements its fetch quest mechanics.”
    • “The story of the game is not that great to be honest.”
    • “Boring story.”
    • “I just wish the devs included some... any story in the game.”
  • graphics
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally considered average, fitting for a higher-quality indie title, but some users noted that the game defaults to very low settings to maintain fluid performance. Despite this, the visuals are acceptable and stable, especially given the game's use of the Unity Personal Edition.

    • “The graphics are about average to what you would expect from a higher quality indie title.”
    • “The graphics are okay, the soundtrack is pretty good, and despite the game running on Unity Personal Edition, the performance is stable.”
    • “The graphics are good.”
    • “The game put my graphic settings on very low by default.”
    • “Graphics are too strong with poor quality.”
    • “The graphics are about average compared to what you would expect from a higher quality indie title.”
  • atmosphere
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game excels at creating a creepy and unsettling horror atmosphere through its sound design and scenes. However, some gameplay elements like frequent looting and progress bars can detract from the overall immersion. Overall, the atmosphere is a strong and well-executed aspect of the experience.

    • “The music is creepy, but it's light on the ears and the other sound effects like the crackling of your EMF device and the heartbeat of your character speeding up when the girl appears deliver quite the atmosphere.”
    • “This game does it well when it comes to horror atmosphere, the scene is great.”
    • “Ultimately, 'Evil Possession' is about atmosphere and it doesn't disappoint.”
    • “With an unsettling atmosphere.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game comes from the quirky premise of a forgetful priest and unintentionally funny elements, such as the main enemy's awkward walk that elicits laughter instead of fear. Players also found some amusement in the contrast between their usual high graphic settings and having to lower them significantly for this game.

    • “The whole premise is you're playing as a priest who was asked to come to the family home to expel the spirits, but every item you need for the ritual you somehow forgot to bring, it's actually quite funny.”
    • “The main enemy of the game, however, looks pretty stupid; it's supposed to be scary, but her walking towards you every so often just made me laugh because of her crazy walk.”
    • “I was laughing at this at first, because I can play most games at ultra, epic, or very high graphic quality, but with this game, I had to stay on very low to have a fluid experience.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music features a creepy yet pleasant soundtrack that effectively enhances the game's eerie atmosphere. Combined with sound effects and expressionistic lighting, the audio keeps players on edge and heightens the impact of jump scares. Overall, the music and sound design contribute significantly to the game's unsettling mood.

    • “The music is creepy, but it's light on the ears and the other sound effects like the crackling of your EMF device and the heartbeat of your character speeding up when the girl appears deliver quite the atmosphere.”
    • “The combination of expressionistic lighting and aptly unnerving soundtrack combine to keep you on edge right from the get-go, making the jump scare/sudden death nature of the game all the more shocking.”
    • “The graphics are okay, the soundtrack is pretty good, and despite the game running on Unity Personal Edition, the performance is stable.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game can feel tedious and requires careful attention to objectives, but the added intensity from active chase sequences keeps the experience engaging and exciting.

    • “Since there are a lot of places to look, the grinding becomes insanely tedious, especially with the daughter being much more active in this section.”
    • “The objectives during grinding are pretty tedious and require you to remember some things, making the process less enjoyable.”
  • replayability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the game's replayability limited, noting that the content is short and unlikely to offer much incentive for repeated playthroughs.

    • “The only real negative I have is the length and the replayability of the content.”
    • “I can't see this having a ton of replayability either.”
  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from stability issues, featuring bugs that affect the experience. Additionally, its outdated visuals and overly basic gameplay further detract from overall polish.

  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The emotional aspect of the game is generally seen as lacking, with users describing the story as boring and failing to engage them emotionally.

  • optimization
