Коротенький инди-хоррор от двух разработчиков, не особо страшный, но, в принципе, для дебютной разработки студии вполне неплохо. Весь геймплей это поиск предметов да разгадка нескольких загадок. Единственным существенным минусом при прохождении было следующее, уж извините за небольшой спойлер: в игре разбросаны 4 части пароля, и у меня почему-то было 2 одинаковых части rum вместо rum и put, из-за чего пришлось долго перебирать пароль с нулевым результатом и в итоге лезть в руководство по прохождению.
The first cheap, Russian indie game I've ever played that wasn't a dumpster fire. That's usually how it goes with those types of games, but no, this one is actually pretty good. Everything runs well, the atmosphere is cool, the scares are a plenty. The story is somewhat shoddy, and the English translation isn't that great, but overall it's a pretty solid effort, especially given the asking price. Also, the "real" ending was dope.
Decent little horror game. Yeah it's forever in EA and probably abandoned. But it's just one buck and the game feels finished, just very short.
"Irony of Boring" This 2017 horror game fails to deliver on any real scares or atmosphere. I’m usually very sensitive to horror games, getting startled easily, but this one didn’t manage to create any tension or memorable moments. The jump scares are weak, and the antagonist feels flat and uninteresting. The endings are especially disappointing, with one option involving an awkward encounter where the entity just T-poses at you, and the other putting you in a matrix-looking, nerd smelling, code and symbol plastered room waiting for the credits to roll. Neither ending feels satisfying or earned. For a game that’s priced around 2 euros, some might argue it’s worth a shot, but even for that price, I think it’s fair to point out the flaws. If you’re okay with a short, forgettable horror experience, it might be worth picking up. Otherwise, I’d recommend looking elsewhere for a better horror game.
Очень необычная игра, мне понравилось)
Самая слабая игра от этих разработчиков, другие их хорроры на порядок лучше и интереснее.
Не страшный, но атмосферный хоррор. Хотелось бы побольше взаимодействий с окружающими предметами, я любитель осматривать локации. В общем, своих денег стоит, можно добавить в список игр, которые можно пройти для зимнего вайба)
Irony Of Nightmare — короткий хоррор-продукт, который делает ставку на атмосферу и психологическое напряжение. Вместо скримеров здесь доминируют тревожный звук, мрачный визуальный стиль и чувство постоянной угрозы. Проект играет с ожиданиями игрока, создавая ироничный контраст между кажущейся простотой и нарастающим кошмаром. Irony Of Nightmare подойдёт любителям камерных хорроров, ценящим давление атмосферы и необычную подачу, а не экшен.
至少还有鬼陪你过圣诞节,不是吗?
Overall Rating: 4/10. Being honest it's been a while since I played the game. I remember it being fun for a Holiday themed horror game, and it had some decent jumpscares. But overall the puzzles felt simple, most of the scares and the "antagonist" if you could call it that, felt cheap and the story line just wasn't there. There are better holiday horror options.
