I'm in love with the concept, but the game is just too... boring? And normally I'd play a meta horror game to full completion, but this one I just cannot seem to want to play. Would've been better if maybe you had more time between scares?
I enjoyed the game up until the soft-locking glitch. Would have been nice to finish.
It was an innovative game and was fun at points, but the story is loosely cobbled together and has nothing to do with you. The only part of the story that really makes sense is the ending, the rest doesn't seem to have much of a connection other than the sections of the game where you hold w (you cannot do anything else but hold w) and walk through rooms that you realize at the end are a metaphor for something else. However, for a game that's directly addressing the player and is so meta it makes zero sense for them to just act like the player is not a character and the gameplay was not actually part of the story. The game is not hard in any way, most puzzles you can solve yourself pretty quickly because the solutions are kind of handed to you through text, and sometimes the solution doesn't even make sense, it's just what the hints tell you to do. For 7 dollars, this game is a waste of money, and kind of a waste of time. If the game was actually about the game not wanting you to play it and the gameplay meant something, yeah I'm sure this would be an incredibly innovative and interesting game. But there's none of that, so I would say it's not worth playing.
trash game,毫无逻辑解密和操作,玩到后面只剩烦躁了,既没感到恐怖也没感到温馨,只想掀桌子。
просто поиграйте в это
Very interesting gaming (?) experience . . . . . . . . Maybe... "not gaming" experience??
Сперма, сперма Ж-И-В-О-Т-Н-О-Г-О!
Ремейк Лунтика выглядит потрясающе
So close to being great. It's quite good, it could almost be formidable. It might have released a few years too early, or too late? An extension on Calendula is long overdue.
