[Chilla's Art] Onryo | 怨霊

Dissapointing game from this artist the monsters are not scary and they are sily,most of them are easy to avoid once you realise what you have to do ( the game dosent give you info about how to play the game so you have to figure it out yourshelf),finding items is hella boring bcs you dont know where to use them and you have to do the cycle of the map multiple times and the problem is that everything looks the same so its hard to find the room you are searching.Not scary,not creepy,generic story,bad monsters and i think you cant do the ending if you die while having a certain item and you have to go back to your save unless you realised afterwards that this item is needed for the ending and you have saved the game while having this item used so you have to start all over again.Not reccomended i expected better from this artist hope he makes more games like aka manto and yuki ohna and put more effort to creepy atmosphere and scarier monsters

I'm always a fan of Chilla's work, very surprised to see a type of Fatal Frame inspired game! Was it stressful? Yes. Did I spend a minimum of an hour looking for one thing? Also yes. Did I actually beat it? Damn right. Absolutely worth the $5.00 https://youtu.be/Mk5ecCzSXBo?si=4QeX3CHzVLLar-ls

This game is an ultimate experience on how every Gachapon collector must feel

I really wanted to like this game, but it was frustrating and I couldn't finish it due to a game breaking bug.. I liked exploring the house, but using the camera Fatal Frame-style against the ghosts in the rooms was a frustrating mechanic in this particular game. It was very tedious dealing with them & the invincible ghosts that chase you in the halls were more annoying than scary. The game is quite buggy too - the ghosts that chase you would get stuck in the doorway sometimes & there were several times I was forced to restart because of the bugs (good thing there is a save function). I also wasn't a fan of the limited inventory & being forced to drop items and backtrack to them, but that is honestly the least of my criticisms. It was the bug that prevented me from defeating the Onryo, & therefore prevented me from finishing the game after spending so much time playing it, that was the final straw & made me stop playing.

I'm not sure why this game has so many bad reviews. I love both types of CA games. The ones with an actual threat and those where you just walk and perform some tasks in a scary atmosphere. This one even had a little bit of fighting which made it different from their other games and was quite refreshing. This game here was huge fun and also more on the challenging side regarding limited item space. The savegame system made it fair and doable though. It was kinda an improved version of Yuki Onna without the annoying perma death. I HATE perma death games in general because not everybody has the time to play for long runs. So the savegame system in Onryo was amazing. It had a few bugs though. The 'defeat ten daughters' achievement never fired for me despite of me definitely defeating plenty of them. Achievement bugs occured in CA's older games but usually reinstalling and trying again would fix it. I liked the game enough to get the other ending so yeah, it was nice.

Yeah I still don't know how to finish this game. But I recommend buying this game

Had a couple scares from opening a door and seeing a hulking ghost sprinting at me. Besides that there isn't much else here. Just more of Chilla's patented 'find this so you can get that so you can open that door so you can get this thing to unlock a box to get another item that you can place somewhere to unlock something' game play. It's so tiring at this point. ' That being said, this is the best version of that formula to date so...there's that. Really wish I could give this a middling review.
