Deceived Of Joy

跟游戏名字一样 欺骗 报玩

게임은 잘 만들었다. 가끔 나오는 점프 스케어도 괜찮고 코믹한 요소도 좋았다. 근데 다른 리뷰들처럼 추격전이 처음에는 재미있는데 그 뒤에 나오는 추격전은 심심한 하게 느껴졌다. 게임은 여기저기 탐험하고 다니기보다는 그냥 한 공간을 계속 반복하는 느낌이다. 게임 플레이 타임은 그렇게 길지 않아 추천은 하지만 공포를 바라고 하기에는 아쉬움이 많을 수 있습니다. 근데 좀 신기한 거는 초반 부분이 무섭지는 않은데 공포스러운 느낌을 너무 잘 만든 느낌이라 신기했습니다. 다음 작품 기대 하겠습니다.

GOOD HORROR GAME

**Pros:** Take *Deceived of Joy* as a B-movie or creepypasta take on the walking simulator genre. There is a bit of a "game" here during the chase sequence, but everything else is mostly scripted. That aside, considering the price tag and the low-budget nature of the project, it was worth it. I appreciated the experience. **Cons:** Lighting bleeds through in some scenes, the transitions between free-roam and scripted sections (and vice versa) can be janky, and you can clearly see the timing behind things like the burning webs, among other issues. I'm not sure how much experience or budget went into this game, but I hope LevelBound Studios can learn from its mistakes and continue delivering more B-movie/creepypasta-inspired experiences. Alternative takes on an already established phenomenon are always welcome.

I would consider this a walking simulator. 45 minutes-ish from start to finish. There is very little gameplay here, but that's alright. Think of it more like a surreal art piece. The price is well worth it. Graphics have that PSX or even some late 90s era MSDOS games. Nothing fancy, but it fits the mood well. Story wise I'm fairly mixed in my opinions. Much of the story is told through a radio show, which is well voice acted, but it feels like a buildup to something we never quite get to. The gameplay has you complete some menial daily tasks, with things getting a little weird as time goes on. It seemed like I needed to be at a certain spot/angle to interact with things at time and that was frustrating. In the end I guess I don't really get it. Maybe it's a story about how people chase after happiness. Maybe it's a story about neighbors and the monotony of life. Maybe.

Pretty solid $3 psychological horror experience, the base story is about an hour long give or take with some added replayability with collectibles and stuff (the game is very generous and lets you manually pick each night to load into). The concept is interesting as well as the aesthetic of the game in general. Very well polished with everything besides one noticeable typo, but no bugs. Only thing is, the few jumpscares you'll run into are kinda weak in my opinion.
