Liminal Space

Liminal Space is a horror game that behaves as a horror tech demo. You boot up a computer and have options to choose from in selecting gameplay mechanics, areas, and monsters to face off. At a price the developer asks for, it is a nice distraction to enjoy for a few hours if you fancy a more developer approach to these titles. The game does have a lot of limitations. These can vary from monsters not being able to enter the house, breaking the horror aspect of it, or a lack of interaction with objects. In addition, it is a bit disappointing that for all the "boot up your pc" bits the game has, it never goes anywhere with that. Having a situation similar to Doki Doki or Psycho Mantis, where the game reads you files or scares you as you set up a level, would have gone a long way into the horror elements of the title. Liminal Space tries to be too many things simultaneously, which is precisely what limits it. The game has the VHS filter, probably due to the rising popularity of games of that type being played out by streamers. Sometimes it is better to focus on an area or two rather than expand too much. As a horror game, I cannot recommend it. It can be used as a horror tech demo that can give you some glimpses and ideas to make a horror game.

BE WARNED The game will crash your computer if you get caught by a specific entity. I think it goes without saying that this should at least be toggle-able.

I love to get lost on these maps when I feel down. Thank you for this game. I love Liminal spaces but without the monsters. Just enjoying the crazy architecture.

Pretty neat game. I love liminal space games and this one has some great uniqueness to it. The music as well is amazing. The Office map was unexpected but really well done! Can definitely recommend this game. A couple of things to change would be to able to access some areas like in the Funzone the playground objects itself. There are invisible walls, probably since the playground objects consists of whole models. Also a water sound would be great when walking inside of water. I rate this game 9/10

Each level is the same: you explore to find three items and the exit. There's no story, no puzzles, and no further interactions. You can optionally enable monsters. You can only run away from them - the game gives you no other methods to deal with them. Unfortunately this game doesn't offer much in the way of fun mechanics or mental simulation, so I can't really find anything to recommend here.

A giant jamming rat with a knife was chasing me.

I am not normally fond of games like this, but when I saw that you could change it so you wren't being chased by a monster, I thought what the heck, and let me tell you...thanks to the soundtrack, it's just as scary. Also, they captured the feeling of Liminal Space quite well.

I was worried when I saw reviews, but I really enjoy playing this game so far. I was skeptic when seeing a game labeled as horror without threats, but even in the exploration mode, I always feel on edge. Would recommend.
