Can't recommend this game at the current price. This is a $2.00 game at best. Here's why: Horrible control scheme: 1 button to toggle your weapons, 1 button to toggle items, and both from the same inventory list. Should've just hotkeyed the 5 inventory slots, but the clumsy inventory scheme is possibly the only thing to make the game challenging. Horrible sound design. Awkwardly clumsy/loud footsteps, wildly varient levels if you simply turn in place. Stupidly loud security alarms. Bad choices for radios and televisions. Horrible level design: 1 bathroom, no shower, 3 bedroom, oversized-basement, open attic, thoughtless layout based on no home that exists in reality, sparcely and horribly furnished with little effort to make each room make sense or unique for its purpose. Horrible concept: you're supposed to run all over your house making guerrilla warfare against a ghost while leaving your vulnerable family to sleep defenselessly in 3 separate rooms, and the design is so lazy that your sleeping wife and daughter don't even sleep with their eyes closed. Horrible ghost: once you've encountered this ghost 2-3 times it becomes boring and predictable, and the only challenge is navigating the silly inventory scheme while said ghost smacks you around. Horrible menus: not enough options on graphics and the motion blur is overdone by default, and when your scenario ends it's hard to be sure what the outcome was, did you win, or did the ghost win? One second you're fighting the ghost, the next you're restarting from the beginning. I assume that means "you lose", but for all I know I've won the game half a dozen times. This game provides a short-lived bit of mild jump scares...then it's just tedious and boring. Don't bother. These lazy devs got my money. I recommend you keep yours.

[h1] One thing for sure, the house is haunted and you are not alone, because the family is with you... well actually they are sleeping upstairs and you are the only one looking for the ghost. Game is simple - protect your family and yourself from the evil spirits. In order to do that you must check on rooms from time to time, because if not the children can get possessed. Devilry is really creepy, first jumpscare makes me fall of the chair and I am not joking here, because some abomination was crawling on the floor while I was unarmed. There are several tools scattered around the house that will help you in fending off the ghost and each of them have its own purpose. Tools that will help are: camera, UV light, radio and candles. However if it gets personal you can protect yourself with a knife or an axe (don't take this too seriously - said ghost). PS.: I didn't survive to the end yet, but there seems to be something more... [/h1]
ENORME! A tester absolument!
I Can say after only playing this game for 30 mins. ive come to really appreciate the amount of work put into it. if you like jump scares mixed in with a little fatal frame, and a little five nights at freddys then this is definetly the game for you.
You know what I'm sick of? Ghosts. Materialising at the foot of your bed at god knows what time in the morning, popping up behind you in the bathroom mirror as you're spitting out your mouthwash and for what? Usually because they have some right to wrong or they've been brutally killed and their murderer needs exposing or some such drivel. If any LIVE individual tried that nonsense, they'd be rewarded with a closed right across the jaw but, of course, ghosts sidestep the corrective beating they're owed by way of being intangible. Well, NO LONGER. I'm recommending Devilry largely for one reason and that is that it allows you to poison, stun and stab ghosts to death with a kitchen knife. If that sounds like the unwatchable finale to an American J-Horror remake then I am absolutely out of rebuttals but any game where I can use a beartrap to catch a ghost before smashing its face open with an axe is beyond any criticism you can level at its weak inventory system or suspect lighting points. You can watch me catching my first ghost below. I have yet to try murdering my family in an attempt to get a battle royale going so I guess you can file that under 'replay value'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1X6TJdlRis
Terrifying...the best looking ghost I've seen in an indie horror game. The ambient sounds, and the visual effects all play with your mind. Your goal is to "kill" the ghost. Now just know that you cannot run up and simply kill it when you see it, you must track it using radios and wtching for visual queues as well. You get quite a few tools but you must search the house to find them first. IR and UV cameras, candles, flour, (yes, flour) poison, and bear traps are among the many things you'll find lying about at your disposal. There are a number of different modifiers to play the game, like a timed mode, no candles, one hit, and so on, giving this game a fair amount of replayability. The gameplay can at times be quiet and slow and at other times, fast and frantic. I really recommend this game, especially for the price. The menu and options menu could use a little work, adding more customizable graphics options and so on, maybe an FOV slider. Also when you die, it just automatically restarts the game. I'd like the option to quit or restart, so you for sure know you've failed, also a "You've Died" type screen would be a nice addition as well. Its only day one for this game so hopefully the dev will read this and consider adding some or all of these things. Other than these few small gripes an overall terrifying and fun game. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update: The last few patches have fixed pretty much every gripe that I had with the game, the loud footsteps are gone, the graphics options are more customizeable and an FOV slider has been added., along with other bug fixes. If you were on the fence about getting this game, now is the time to do so!
Le principe est simple: Vous revenez du boulot tard la nuit, votre femme et vos deux enfants sont au lit et vous devez aller voir si ils vont bien. Plus le temps passe plus il y a de bruits et d'activités étranges dans la maison, mais c'est là que ca devient intéréssant, votre but n'est pas de vous cacher, non vous devez TROUVER et ÉLIMINER cette entité qui menace votre maison (Ou plutôt manoir paumé au milieu de nul part) Donc vous êtes le chasseur mais aussi la proie. Les +: Les graphismes sont beaux et les effets de lumière vraiment sympa. Le principe et cool et les parties sont assez rapides, plusieurs difficultés et challenges sont disponibles. Les -: Le gameplay avec certains objets et certaines armes laisse à désirer, les animations sont souvent bien moches (surtout le couteau) Du coup on dirais un peu un jeu encore en beta. Les parties sont assez rapides, donc on a assez vite fait le tour du jeu, du coup je ne sais pas trop si $8 c'est acceptable ou bien trop pour la durée de vie, à vous de juger. Je recommanderais ce jeu à un pote sans hésiter, la petite expérience térrifiante en vaut la peine selon moi, mais c'est vrai que ce n'est pas forcement un jeu qui va plaire à tout le monde.
https://youtu.be/5ls2KDk7QY8 Ciekawa pozycja, z dobrą atmosferą, przyzwoitą oprawą audio-wizualną i ciekawym, choć powtarzalnym mechanizmem rozgrywki. Dobra gra na halloweenowy wieczór :-)
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! I've seen many free horror games that are 100x better than this (Curse of the Aztecs, Slender Mods. etc) FYI: I've played nearly every single horror game out there over the course of 5 years, I know what a quality horror game is. Why you should avoid it: 1) Overpriced 2) Random crazy intense music plays for no reason at all. 3) 1 sp00ky, jumpscare-only ghost that can be easily defeated using the same tactic in all of the 11 difficulty modes 4) Last update was 4 months ago which was a hotfix - no features at all added 5) Barely any differences in all of the difficulty modes, I defeated them all in less than an hour. 6) No replay value - you figure out how to kill the ghost - you win. No randomization of ghosts or tools of any sort. I cannot find any pros of this game, definitely one of my biggest regrets in my steam library.
[h1]Devilry delivers some scares but requires suspending belief more than most games [/h1] Here is some gameplay that I recorded during my evaluation of the game: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=479764059 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=480493487 Devilry is a game that has some interesting mechanics and which delivers in the creepy and scares department, but whose anachronistic elements make it difficult to stay immersed. Don’t get me wrong, I had fun playing the game, and the interesting combination of items (e.g. a candle, ax, tablet with a flash, a can of poison, etc.) used to identify and possibly harm the ghost in this game makes for some unique gameplay, but I am not sure those elements really all belong in a game that is set in a modern house/family in 2012. Pros: [list] [*]Some nice scares [*]Big environment [*]Lightening works well [/list] Cons: [list] [*]Terrible instructions [*]Difficult to understand what your purpose is [*]Easy to miss important items/paths/clues if you're not careful [/list]
