Fear Academy

Fear Academy feels polished: fluid mechanics, engaging ambiance, and balanced pacing.

Muy buen juego, muy recomendable.

Man, this game legit had me shaking 😭. The atmosphere is so creepy, the music gets under your skin, and every corner feels like death is waiting. I swear I almost quit but the story kept pulling me back in. It’s scary in the best way possible — play it if you dare.

The game captures the horror atmosphere really well, keeping you in suspense that something might come out or attack you at any moment. It actually managed to make me jump a couple of times.

I played the demo a few weeks ago. To the game's credit, the atmosphere of the demo and the full game are pretty spooky. The demo's puzzles were few and super easy, but I thought the full-game would have more intricate puzzles and gameplay. I finished the full-game (starting over from beginning to end) in about 55 minutes. Approximately, only five-ten minutes of full-game content were not in the demo. The only additional puzzles was also super easy. The puzzles are so straightforward and easy that it's not even really a puzzle game. [spoiler] For one puzzle, it's literally run down a hall, throw a single switch (the only one that could be swtiched), run to the end of a different hallway. [/spoiler] Things occur in the gameplay that led me to believe that I would witness a story by the end of the game. I was wrong. [spoiler] You begin as an employee returning to the school to retrieve medicine at nighttime. Weird visions seem to speak of a past tragedy. Then suddenly you see yourself as the presumed killer. I don't know if this was supposed to mean the player character kills a bunch of students during psychosis or what. [/spoiler] The story just doesn't feel cohesive. The game had a lot of potential. With more and better puzzles, more gameplay, and a cohesive narrative, it could be a great atmospheric horror puzzler. As it was, I felt it was released with too little content for the cost and asked for a refund.

Ein kurzes, atmosphärisches Horrorgame mit schöner Grafik – mein Rechner hatte sogar ein bisschen zu kämpfen. Die Soundkulisse ist sehr gelungen, nur die Schritte sind für meinen Geschmack etwas zu laut. Die Mechanik der Gegenstände sorgt manchmal für unfreiwillige Komik – man hebt etwas auf und schwupps fliegt es 15 Meter weit. 😂 Trotzdem gab es ein paar gute Jumpscares, die mich erwischt haben. Die Story ist nicht ganz klar, aber das passt zum Genre – manchmal bleibt eben Raum zum Nachdenken. Für Horrorneulinge, die Lust auf Atmospheric Horror, Short Indie Games oder einen kleinen Highschool Horror haben, auf jeden Fall einen Blick wert!

From the very first moment, the atmosphere pulled me in. The visuals look great even on low settings, and the dark, tense environment made me constantly feel like something was lurking just behind me. The puzzles are well integrated into the horror experience, keeping me engaged while also heightening the suspense. I especially liked how the UI was smooth and clear, which made exploring and interacting with the world feel natural. Overall, this is a deeply immersive psychological horror that captures the feeling of being watched and never truly alone. With its strong design and atmosphere, it’s an experience that sticks with you long after playing.

Pretty good, a few really scary bits. Story's a lil weak but totally worth the money

I cannot recommend this terrible game. The gamebreaking bugs broke the immerson and horror. During my 30-35 minutes playthrough I experienced nothing but frustration rather than horror. Oh there was only 4 horror parts. We saw the creepy janitor once. I didn't get end game either. What was it about? What happened? I'd ratehr not ruin the end game by putting it here. My first issue was you can softlock yourself out of the game so you have to reload the checkpoint like I had to because there is no inventory system. I was in the bathroom, and Instoad of the developers adding in an invenotry where you pick things up like electic knobs to put in the electric box you have to carry them in front of you 1 by 1 and if you press left click insterad of right click you throw them aross the room or throw them behind the dresser so your then locked out and can't progress as they are stuck. I had to reload the bathroom part 4 times. There is a scary janitor but no chase and you see him for 2-3 seconds all game and that's it. Not very scary. There is another 3-4 jump scares where the lights flash and your protagonist gasps and another where a dead body changes 3-4 times. That's it,, apart from floor blood. Now we come to the mess hall, electricity on the floor with water. You can't rotate the 5-6 cubes and they block your vision despite zoom out, so I died in the electric water 2-3 times and another time I died because the game reckoned I fell in the electric water when I cleared the water by jumping on the cubes. What should have taken me 20-30 minutes took me 35-40 minutes. The bugs just ruined the immersion. Scares? What scares? Glad I only paid $3-$4 for this game. The bathroom part where I had to reload the game 3-4 times was frustrating just because I pressed the wrong button and threw the electric box knobs under the furniture so I couldn't get them. Only get this on special otherwise pass on this feeble attemprt at a horror game.
