Huntsman

This game will either give you arachnophobia or (maybe...still to be determind) cure it. I personally have arachnophobia and the only thing helping me get through this game is naming the spiders. Yes. It sounds silly but honestly it kinda worked for me xD Huntsman - Pita (for Pain In The Ass) Orb Weavers - Fug (cause when you see them your first thought will PROBABLY be "Fug this ♥♥♥♥ i'm out!") Tarantula - Lotta (for when you encounter them, they are a whole Lotta NOPE!) Trap door spiders - Ogno (for OH GOD NO!) I personally think this game is awesome. In my opinion graphics are 8/10, The atmosphere and tension is a 12/10, and the spiders are 100% FREAKY xD

All the animals in this game are really cute, they're very placid and beautiful. Would definitely recommend this game to those who love these absolutely beautiful and harmless creatures!

Game was alright, would I leave a Positive review? Not really, not at this time. It's got too many bugs, glitches, and other faulties within game. Its a neat idea and concept. However, needs a lot of work. And probably more story to it. Just imo. Would I recommend this game? Not quite yet. Review may change depending on updates, and depending if any new sort of story pops up. Overall Will rate it fairly. 8.5/10 4.5/5

I love all the new spiders and new stuff added to it, I need more spider action doh D:<

5/5 stars! Play it a lot! Still scary. Love it. The office is my favorite part! Cant say enough good things about this amazing game!

it is a fun but scary if you don't like spiders

Very interesting game, I have Arachnophobia and played this for almost 3 hours, got scared and saved the game so many times lol i finally beat it and will play again! maybe a huntsman 2 should come out? i love this game so much and i recommend it.

Huntsman is a survival horror title developed by OnTheHouse Studios and published by Ten Image Publishing that takes a focused approach to fear by centering its entire experience around giant spiders and the terror they inspire. Rather than relying on supernatural entities or conventional horror clichés, the game traps players inside the abandoned Atherton Laboratories, a research facility that has become overrun by deadly arachnids following a catastrophic incident. The premise may sound straightforward, but it provides a strong foundation for a tense and unsettling adventure that consistently emphasizes vulnerability and survival. The game's greatest strength lies in how thoroughly it commits to its central concept. The spiders are not merely enemies placed throughout the environment; they are the heart of the experience. Their movement patterns, hunting behaviors, and unsettling animations create a constant sense of dread. Every dark hallway, ventilation shaft, and laboratory room becomes a potential danger zone. Players are encouraged to remain alert at all times, as the creatures can appear unexpectedly and transform routine exploration into a nerve-racking encounter. This commitment to realistic arachnid behavior helps Huntsman stand out from many indie horror titles that rely heavily on scripted scares. Exploration plays a major role throughout the adventure. Atherton Laboratories serves as a sprawling environment filled with locked sections, power systems, hidden clues, and interconnected pathways. Progression often involves restoring electricity, unlocking new access points, and piecing together the story behind the facility's downfall. This structure gives the game a satisfying sense of discovery while also maintaining tension, since every newly opened area may contain additional threats. The environmental storytelling helps flesh out the setting, gradually revealing details about the experiments and mistakes that led to the disaster. Unlike many survival horror games, Huntsman offers limited opportunities for direct confrontation. Instead, players must rely on stealth, observation, and resourcefulness. Flashlights, distractions, and environmental tools become essential for navigating dangerous situations. The lack of traditional weapons ensures that encounters remain stressful from beginning to end. Running blindly is rarely a successful strategy, and careful planning is often required to avoid becoming trapped by pursuing spiders. This design choice reinforces the feeling of helplessness that effective horror games strive to achieve. The atmosphere is another notable achievement. The abandoned laboratory setting is filled with dark corridors, flickering lights, and an oppressive sense of isolation. Sound design contributes significantly to the tension, with subtle environmental noises and unsettling creature sounds keeping players on edge. Huntsman generally favors suspense over excessive jump scares, allowing fear to build naturally through anticipation and uncertainty. As a result, the game often feels more psychologically effective than horror experiences that depend solely on sudden shocks. Visually, the game delivers solid environmental detail and impressive creature animation despite operating within a modest production scope. The laboratory environments may not always be highly varied, but they effectively support the game's mood and sense of danger. The spiders themselves receive the most visual attention, and their realistic movement is often enough to provoke discomfort even when they are not actively attacking. For players with arachnophobia, the visual design can be particularly effective and occasionally overwhelming. While Huntsman succeeds in many areas, it is not completely free of issues. Some players may encounter technical imperfections, occasional pacing problems, or moments where objectives are not communicated as clearly as they could be. Certain sections can feel repetitive due to the consistent laboratory setting, and the deliberate pace may not appeal to those looking for a more action-oriented horror experience. Fortunately, the game's strengths in atmosphere, tension, and creature design help compensate for these shortcomings. Overall, Huntsman is a focused and memorable survival horror game that understands exactly what kind of experience it wants to deliver. By building its mechanics, environments, and scares around the fear of giant spiders, it creates a unique identity within a crowded genre. The combination of exploration, stealth-based survival, environmental storytelling, and relentless tension results in an engaging horror experience that will particularly appeal to players who enjoy suspense-driven gameplay. Although a few technical and design limitations prevent it from reaching the highest tier of the genre, Huntsman remains an effective and often genuinely frightening adventure.

It's very buggy, no pun intended. After dying, progressing sometimes becomes impossible as key progression items like the computer becomes unusable. Dont buy until fixed.

The game has very spooky moments but thats all so far. I found I was more frustrated with the game failing to load sections of the map or bugging out because I didn't interact with a specific item before picking up or turning something on. I eventually had to give up because I couldn't access a paper that tells me where the final piece of the 3 part mix is and couldn't move around due to the labs portion not loading properly. I also don't know if there was supposed to be music or voice acting in the game because there are sliders for them but I never heard anything. I had very few things make a noise. Nothing was corrupt on my files and I have a pretty good rig to play things and adjusted everything the entire time to try to get the game to work.
