Players find "Time Splatter" emotionally engaging as it immerses them in a dark historical setting, where themes of loss and survival during the black plague resonate throughout the gameplay. The juxtaposition of knights and zombie-like creatures adds a layer of tension and urgency, enhancing the emotional stakes of the protagonist's journey.
story

The story is minimal and poorly executed, consisting of just a few lines of text displayed on a black screen, and it concludes with a vague "coming soon" message despite the game being released over a year ago. Players feel the narrative is incomplete and lacks depth, contributing to an overall impression of a cheap and unfinished product.
“The entire game is less than five minutes long (achievements included), there are only three kinds of enemies (who look like basic assets from some random tool), the entire story is just a few lines of text on a black screen, and it ends with 'coming soon' without being marked as early access. Since it was released more than a year ago, it's pretty obvious that it'll never get finished. It runs on Unity and feels cheap, like any other scam out there, really.”
