MOLDRISE

cool concept

Super cool game about getting to the top of your apartment building after an infection in your foot urges you to do so. Interacting with the neighbors in each floor and figuring out what they needed was a fun gameplay loop. Cool execution, fun trip sequences and dope music from Mike Klubnika!

disgusting but perfect atmosphere

10/10, would get deadly fungal foot infection again

It's a really good, really short game that's pretty spooky but not in like a jumpscare sort of way. I would say the main draw to the game is the concept of a game where knowledge is super important and that real progress is made by you, the player, learning more about the world. I don't want to give any examples because the game is so short, but for the most part you wind up learning that a thing that took you ten or fifteen minutes could be completely skipped if you know what you need to actually be doing. Kind of like Orten Was the Case, if that means anything to anyone. Pretty easy to recommend if you enjoy shorter games. I do think some people would be concerned about the lack of value for the cost so maybe wait for a sale if that's a concern of yours, but I do still think it's worth playing if you enjoy knowledge based games.

Good game.

不赖！

Moldrise does a great job of building tension and a chilling atmosphere without resorting to jumpscares. It also didn't overstay its welcome. Once I had experienced what it had to offer, I was able to complete a run without much trouble and see the "good ending." I played through it in about 4 hours. Great props to the design of this game, It's visually interesting, the characters are all recognizable dopplegangers of apartment living, and the game's mechanics keep tension high even while you're just pacing the hallways.
