Nightbell is a first-person Christmas Eve horror told through the eyes of a boy who stayed home with his mother. After a bedtime story about a witch with a bell, he wakes up to that same familiar chime, discovers his mother is missing, and comes face to face with a creature eerily similar to her.

About
Nightbell is an atmospheric horror game about a Christmas Eve when a cozy home stops being a safe place.
On the eve of the holiday, a young boy stays home with his mother: a decorated tree, a festive table, the anticipation of a miracle. But at night, the house changes, sounds and shadows become unfamiliar, and the boy has only one thing left to do — figure out what is really happening and why everything around feels wrong.
The player will wander through the transformed house, follow the chime of a bell, hide from an unknown threat, and try to piece together scattered clues.
By morning, everything looks like a simple dream of a frightened child… but some details stubbornly refuse to fit into a harmless bedtime story.

Decent little horror game.
Decent little horror game. It should take you about 40 minutes to finish. I've played better games in the indie horror genre but the game is ok.
Hey! Das Game hat mir gut gefallen. Ich bin mit meiner Mutter alleine zu Hause und soll ihr ein wenig im Haushalt helfen. Als das erledigt ist, liest sie mir ein Buch von einer Hexe mit einer Glocke vor, die Kinder anlockt. Danke Mommy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcMXYEgW0xU
Oyun başarılıydı. Yerinde jumpscareler vardı. Sonu daha iyi bitebilirdi. Oynanış videosu: https://youtu.be/s-kE3-loVHI?si=IhdbFoFr0i2Yf4kG
Прикольный, местами страшный, новогодний хоррор. Оставляющий за собой только 1 вопрос: это был сном или явью?
Oyun grafikleri ve oynanışı itibari ile çok güzel bir oyundu, tebrikler. Benden izlemek isterseniz eğer buyrunuz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZqDmNzY3q4
I picked up Nightbell without expecting much, but it turned out to be a pretty enjoyable horror game. The atmosphere is the game's strongest point. The house feels creepy from the start, and the tension keeps building as you progress. I liked that the game doesn't rely only on jump scares. Instead, it creates a constant feeling that something isn't right. The story kept me interested, and I wanted to see how everything would end. The game is fairly short and the gameplay is simple, so don't expect anything groundbreaking. Still, for a small indie horror title, it does what it sets out to do very well. Overall, I had a good time with it and would recommend it to fans of atmospheric horror games. 8/10
A very good short game. Just right for the evening.
Very good game loved it :)
Moin Meister, ich bin’s, euer fauler Rezensionsschreiber Ben. Als Kumpel meinerseits (Snorre), der „Stalker“ meines beeindruckenden Gameplays, schreiben wir jetzt 4 u eine Rezension: Tut mir leid, aber dieses Spiel hat uns nicht gefallen. Den Cent ehrt man lieber, denn der Euro ist es nicht wert. Das liegt vor allem daran, dass das Ende absoluter ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ist und der Anfang auf einem herzlosen Stück Papier steht – c’mon, wer hat Bock zu lesen, also ehrlich? Der Rest wird ja vorgelesen, nurarsch. Außerdem ist die Story bodenlos: Du fängst an, Kinderarbeit zu verrichten, während deine Mum duscht, und dann liest sie dir eine Sterbegeschichte vor und keine Gute-Nacht-Geschichte. DAS IST EIN KIND. Aber wir müssen die Grafik loben. Heydiho das war’s von den The StalkBrothers und btw Kein Monster entkommt! PS: Geh lieber ins Adoptionsheim, da bist du besser dran, KIND.
