About
Obscula is a first-person psychological horror game that drags players into the depths of the mind, blending psychological terror with an oppressive atmosphere. Forgotten memories, distorted realities, and an overwhelming sense of dread lurk in every shadow. As you search for the truth, you must face the horrors that hide within the walls of this forsaken place.
You were once a servant in this house, but your past is nothing but a blur. Trapped within its decaying halls, you are haunted by eerie whispers, shadowy figures, and fragmented memories. Someone doesn’t want you to remember. But before you can uncover the truth, you must confront the illusions that cloud your mind.
This house is not what it seems. Behind each door lies more than just a room—it holds echoes of the past, watching, waiting. You must question everything you see, for every step forward may lead you closer to the truth… or deeper into madness.
Atmospheric Horror: A slow-burning fear that lingers in every corner—Obscula builds tension through psychological dread rather than cheap jump scares.
Bone-Chilling Sound Design: Every whisper, every creak, and every distant footstep reminds you that you are never truly alone.
Story-Driven Exploration: Gather fragments of the past through environmental storytelling and unravel the dark truth hidden within the house.

Obscula is a horror walking simulator where you walk down the same corridor over and over again while watching different scary things happen each time you walk through it. There are 2-3 puzzles to solve involving a keypad, and there is a lady ghost with jump scares to frighten you. The whole game was super short as I beat the whole game in 25 minutes. + Several jump scares got me good. + The sound effects are well done. - There is no real story. - There is an extremely grainy haze (graphic filter) over everything that makes the game too dark and hard on the eyes. - The game is too short. - There is no ending at all. After walking through the corridor a certain number of times the game literally just stops and brings you to the main screen. - The inputs for the keypad in the game do not work properly. You have to click about 5-10 times for the number to register once. - Both number puzzles require a certain intuition and guesswork to solve. The whole thing is a waste of time, better games out there for your time and money. Overall: 4/10
Hallo! Wollte das Spiel live auf Twitch spielen, es war leider komplett fürn Arsch. Die Steuerung ist verbuggt des Todes, man sieht kaum etwas weil das Game so dunkelt ist. Außerdem ist der Sound ultra nervig und man kann ihn nicht entfernen bzw. regulieren. Es gibt kein Ziel bei diesem Spiel, man spielt und hat keine Ahnung was man spielt. Kauft das Spiel nicht. Ich habs geschenkt bekommen aber ich will trotzdem mein Geld zurück! Habe eine Stunde meines Lebens mit der Scheiße verschwendet. LG, Sandra (PS: folgt mir auf twitch.tv/sandra_irl und Twitch Prime ist kostenlos LUL)

overall alright for free.
Harika bir oyun ve EVET, ünlü P.T.'den esinlenilmiş. Güzel bir hikaye deneyimi, ancak bazı bulmacalar çok kafa karıştırıcı çünkü çoğunlukla ne yapacağınıza dair bir ipucu vermiyor. Yaklaşık bir iki saatlik oyun süresi var. Deneyin.
DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME
a proposta é legal, tentar "replicar" o terror que não tivemos, P.T Silent Hill... porém é só um jogo mal polido, muito pesado para sua proposta e infelizmente, isso trás uma gameplay frustrante. você pode ver pelo meu computador, que rodaria até a leitão do Gabe Newell, a máxima que peguei aqui nessa desgraça foi 39fps, (não adianta abaixar os gráficos, nada muda e volta para o padrão do jogo que é ultra.) fique a observação que a pegada do jogo é legal, trás um pouco do terror que você não poderia ter por interação mas somente pelos vídeos gravados de P.T... porém é mal feito, então é 50/50.
Cool game, and YES, it WAS inspired by the famous P.T. Nice story experience, though some puzzles are very puzzling cause it mostly gives you no indicator what to do. About hour-or two of gameplay.... Depending if you are a slow snail like me. 8/10, I wish it lasted longer. And yes, it would NEED the patch to fix the small glitches and errors. I got this game on Keymailer.co
J’attendais Obsculla avec impatience, motivé par l’envie de soutenir un studio indépendant prometteur. Malheureusement, l’expérience s’est révélée particulièrement décevante et frustrante. Dès les premières minutes, la caméra extrêmement lente combinée à un personnage peu réactif rend la prise en main pénible. À cela s’ajoute une interface de réglages très limitée : aucune option de sensibilité, de luminosité ou de confort visuel. Résultat, la session devient rapidement éprouvante. Dans mon cas, elle s’est même soldée par une forte gêne visuelle en raison d’une luminosité bien trop basse… et non modifiable. Sur le plan technique, le jeu souffre de chutes de FPS importantes, même sur une configuration correcte. Le passage en qualité minimale améliore un peu la fluidité, mais l’enregistrement des paramètres est capricieux : il m’a fallu relancer plusieurs fois le jeu pour que mes choix soient pris en compte. Le contenu du jeu est lui aussi très limité. Les énigmes sont rares, peu cohérentes, et manquent d’intérêt. Enfin, la fin du jeu est expédiée : pas de vraie conclusion, aucun développement narratif, juste un retour brutal au menu principal… sans la moindre envie de recommencer, d’autant que la rejouabilité est inexistante. À l’heure actuelle, je ne peux malheureusement pas recommander Obscula dans son état actuel. J’espère sincèrement que le studio prendra le temps de corriger certains problèmes pour offrir une expérience plus aboutie, car il faut tout de même souligner que l’ambiance sonore est particulièrement réussie et démontre un vrai potentiel artistique. Il est également important de rappeler qu’il s’agit du premier jeu du studio. Créer un jeu, aussi imparfait soit-il, est un défi considérable. Je tiens donc à saluer leur travail et leur engagement. En espérant que, pour leurs futurs projets, ils sauront tirer les leçons de cette première expérience. https://legeekparesseux.fr/test-gaming/obscula
lo unico malo es q no me puedo culear al fantasma 0 de 10
An und für sich eigentlich ein cooles Game. Es ist inspiriert von P.T. Dieser Schleier der über dem Game ist bzw die Optik einfach, ist merkwürdig, aber man gewöhnt sich dran. Das "Monster" bzw "Frau" ist grafisch sehr cool gemacht. ABER: Ich habe das Spiel abgebrochen, da ich leider bei dem Rätsel mit den Zahlen, mindestens 40 mal auf eine Zahl tippen musste, um diese dann in das Numpad bekommen zu haben. Hätte es gerne zu Ende gespielt aber nicht möglich, vor allem muss ich ja mehrere Pincodes versuchen, bis ich den richtigen habe. Selbst das Bestätigen hat mich ca 40 Klicks gekostet. Evtl kommt da noch ein Update was diesen Fehler behebt, dann werde ich dem Spiel nochmal eine Chance geben :)
