Fifo's Night

Neat game

[b]Decent PS2 era game[/b] I wish I could give a neutral review but since you can't, this has to be a thumbs down because it has too much issues [b]Good[/b] [list] [*] Short and to the point, doesn't really make the game too long for no reason or add tons of mechanics for no reason [/list] [b]Bad[/b] [list] [*] The settings are clunky and aren't even persistent between game starts, the game always starts in spanish for example [*] Even with a high end PC I had to play in low graphics because the game has big FPS issues including massive FPS drops (talking 144 going down to 5) that wouldn't come back to normal without a game restart [*] No key mapping settings on keyboard, the qwerty keyboard layout is mandatory [*] Got stuck in corners several times playing the game normally, had to restart the game and re-do what it didn't save [*] The end cinematic plays at full volume even if your game's volume is at 10% [*] One of the achievements makes you find every single candy in the game but doesn't tell you where the missing ones are or how much you've completed a specific area so you have to search the entire map for them which is very boring and made hard due to some paths/shortcuts not being unlockable anymore once the game is beaten [*] Doesn't seem to have controller support, no matter what I tried, even with 3rd party apps that usually always work [/list]

"Fifo's Night" is a student project from the Lightbox Academy in Madrid, Spain, famous for more than just tapas and having tortoises in the train station. This year the students made a third person 3D platformer. But is it any good? What do you do in the game? There's nothing here that's truly breaking the mold, but you do get a very polished, smooth and pleasant to play 3D platforming experience as you guide a ghost around in this short narrative driven platforming adventure. The graphics in this game are really quite good, which at least makes the game look more appealing. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. Here, you get a reasonably even match, enough to give this a pass. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at just a dozen or so concurrent players, and now there's basically nobody playing it. Even though it's free. This is a dismal public reception, but it's easy to see why gamers rejected it. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Yes, believe it or not. While this is far from a perfect game, the deficiencies and drawbacks can be overlooked due to the zero up front price and the value you get out of it. It's greater than the sum of its parts, and worth downloading if you're a fan of this kind of gaming experience.

Awesome Halloween game.

a actually amazing game, has so much content and its entertaining for hours, 10/10 for a free game

Surprisingly good and surprisingly substantial. I feel like it should have cost me money. If you like the looks of it, then you won't be disappointed.

Truly the dark souls of candy collection games
