SMILE SIMULATION

A really unique take on an indie horror game. I dont know how many times I got jumpscared. Overall solid game.

A brilliant wee game, something to check out if you are a fan of surreal liminal style horror games and also keep an eye out for some familiar faces too

A wonderfully creative indie horror title. The game has good pacing and ramps up more and more in terms of pressure and intensity on the player. My favourite part was there's this really big headed streamer guy in the game, who's also incredibly handsome. :D

This game is awesome! It has great scares and is horrifying and intense. Gets my anxiety going. I love the atmosphere. I love seeing all of the content creators on the walls. They creep me out with their smiles! Love that there are monsters as you proceed with the rounds. Ive played over 2 hours of it and will go back to play it many times more! Thanks for featuring me, Vidas! It's an honor to be part of this with the others!

What do I always say? To make a great horror game you just need a clever idea, nothing more. This game here is a very good example. Starting from a simple but original idea, Vidas, one of the most popular masters of horror, managed to create an extraordinarily creepy and challenging survival horror, one of those games that truly tests your capacity to maintain a cold blood in the most tense and frightening situations. Anything I could say here would be a spoiler, so I'll just say this: despite the notorious Vidas' passion for loud jumpscares, here he opted for a subtler, and in the end MUCH scarier, type of horror, i.e., the horror of being in constant danger, the horror that derives from the awareness that there is ALWAYS something on your trail, something that is more than ready to exploit your anxiety and your hesitation. This is the true fuel of nightmares. And this is exactly what this game feels like, a dark and hostile nightmare. More than recommended to anyone who is looking for a short but outstandingly scary horror experience. Cheers guys!

Smile Simulation is a game where you have to examine portraits and make them stop smiling, but creatures and entities will try to kill you. The sound design and overall vibe of the game are great, and the later levels are challenging once the game starts throwing multiple creatures at you at the same time.

Quite different to the type of games I usually play, I found this interesting with well-paced level progression. The gameplay style appears simple enough to start but the game doesn't provide all the answers, leaving you to figure out the best strategies for dealing with the new dangers that appear. I'm looking forward to going back and challenging myself with the additional modes. Just to note - there is a fair amount of flashing images (largely during dialogue sections) which photosensitive people may want to be aware of.

Had a lot of fun with this one and another great game by Vidas! The idea is you open shutters to various anomalous painting and have to de-smile them to escape, as you progress, the game gets more difficult with various new anomalies/tasks that appear Got me pretty good with the tension of the entities and definitely when they start ganging up! The pictures were fun and enjoyed seeing so many other creators on there, maybe you can find me also? Some were pretty sneaky with their smiles haha, hit me with some good scares and startles, got some chills from the atmosphere at times! And always, rad music and awesome voice acting. I been on a binge of spot the difference horror types of games so this one, having to check the pictures and seeing if they changed or smiled helped hit that interest with other things happening at the same time was the game builds. Played completely through and got to the end, definitely a recommend play! Great job Vidas on another rad game!
