    • “The graphics are very nice (UE5), has an interesting story, it's nicely voice acted, and ran well (for the most part).”
    • “With its superb graphics and voice acting, something you usually won't find in indie horror titles, Manivore is a tense story reminiscent of the movie 'Prisoners.'”
    • “The aesthetics drip like rendered fat.”
    • “This game is insanely laggy :( my PC is a Lenovo Legion 5 with an i7 processor, 32GB RAM, and an NVIDIA 1660 Ti graphics card.”

  • optimization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Performance was great.”
    • “Poorly optimized; the game is slow, and inputs don’t work well. When trying to interact with things, you have to click in a specific zone or it won’t work. It could have been much better if the developer had optimized the game and completed the plot without leaving everything to nonsense.”
    • “Hard to play; poorly optimized.”
