Love the atmosphere and the setting. Will try to get all endings for sure!
Amazing atmosphere. Needs a bit more polish: - Enemies can get stuck in the environment and each other blocking your path to progress. - Enemies can follow you into a hideout place and will just stand, without attacking, trapping you there. - Dog can block you from exiting certain areas. - UI elements get stuck. - Missing music and sfx (except for footsteps).
Revival version provides a significant graphics improvement while keeping the original feel of the game. Great replayability with multiple endings and has new mechanics and interesting gameplay. Comes with some interactive physics which is always a win. Would recommend.

great horror game but i feel some things was missing from the itch.io like something about some dog ending
I do really like this game, you can see I got 100% in it. It is a VERY short game and as much as I like it, I wouldn't say it is worth $10. I would wait for this game to go on sale.
just not worth its price. better as a free-ware game on itch.io.
Really enjoyed the style of this game. It's a blend of soothing nostalgia and unsettling horror. The soundtrack is great, the mechanics and exploration are simple but satisfying, and the world left me wanting more. You can play it in an afternoon, but there's multiple endings worth pursuing. The game doesn't hold you by the hand, which I appreciated. My only hang up is the inability to save the game. It operates on an auto-save system, so if you to explore a different choice or ending, you have to start the whole game over, but it doesn't take too long to catch back up once you know what you're doing. I did prefer the original design of the Giant, though. All in all, I enjoyed it and would really like to see more games in this vein and style.
Neutral review It's great in aesthetic but if you plan on going for all endings it's strong when it comes to repetition and not really in a way where you notice much more each time so at some point it's like sure a different ending but doing all the stuff between over and over with no real shortcuts between it all? Not so pleasant, I gave this game patience but eventually I just lost the desire to try 100 % this despite wanting to push through it
I really liked the PS1 style graphics as well as the Silent Hill vibe going on
I enjoyed my time in Little Vale.
