Good creepy game, although a tiny bit confusing at times but overall I enjoyed it as did my chat in stream.
Finde das Spiel hat ziemlich stark angefangen das Intro mega Grafik,aber nach der Zeit hat es ziemlich abgebaut,die Geister wurden Grafisch sehr schlecht gemacht war eher comedy das hat so ziemlich den Spass geraubt,Story fand ich gut und Gameplay Technisch läuft es flüssig.Aber mit 1 Std Spielzeit zu kurz für den Preis.Und Errungenschaften sind verbuggt!!!! https://youtu.be/0CUxCZlpk8I
Keeps crashing when I open the secret door in the basement !!!!!
The story follows Mike, an investigative reporter who has lost the love of his life and now drifts through a repetitive grind just to keep going. He buries himself in work and becomes consumed by a new obsession: investigating a string of murders linked to a serial killer with a distinct modus operandi. The latest crime involves a murdered family found in an apartment, and you decide to visit the scene in search of clues. Once inside, however, you quickly realize the apartment has no intention of letting you leave. It begins to shift and transform, creating a living nightmare around you. The gameplay is straightforward, as expected from a first person exploration title. You move through the environment and search for interaction points that either advance the story, reveal new information, or allow you to examine miscellaneous objects that add depth to the experience. Interactive spots are marked with a white circle, though they only appear when you are close enough. This is rarely an issue, since the apartment is small and subtly guides you forward without offering much freedom. While compact, the setting embraces one of the defining traits of single location games: constant transformation. Rooms appear where none existed before, locked doors open unexpectedly, and previously accessible paths may close behind you. There are no puzzles or meaningful challenges, only a linear progression in which you trigger the next event by interacting with clearly highlighted objects. The game relies heavily on frequent visual distortions and sudden sounds to maintain tension. Unfortunately, the audio design can be overwhelming, especially during jump scares that rely more on excessive volume than genuine atmosphere. From the beginning, the technical performance stands out. The game runs smoothly on maximum graphical settings, with no noticeable stuttering or missing textures. There are also on voiceovers for your character, but sometimes it’s a better idea not to have them at all instead of relying on artificial voices. The subtitles are serviceable but show signs of being translated into English, with occasional awkward phrasing. The experience is relatively short, making it well suited for streamers who often feature games of this length. There are no deaths, and although it has an early access tag, this appears to be a complete game. A thoughtful addition is the inclusion of three different endings. The game saves just before the final decision, allowing you to revisit that moment and view all outcomes within a single save file.
Very cinematic and great story! Jumpscares are a different breed https://youtu.be/iiTsEaIW6IA?si=5RdlQqmHiXklbgS9

Screaming in the Basement was actually pretty scary. The eerie atmosphere really got to me, and it made me jump a few good times. The vibes were super unsettling in the best way. If you’re into creepy horror games, I’d definitely recommend checking it out.
this game is really good a perfect Horror Game, ONE THINK YOU NEED TO FIX A DOOR IN THE BASEMENT. THEY DIDN´T HAVE COLLISION SO YOU CAN GO OUT
il gioco non si puo finire causa bug. io mi chiedo se questi sviluppatori li controllano i giochi? fanno d3ei test prima di publicare un gioco? o pensano solo ai soldi..vergognoso
