the game is not horrible but the two photos shown of the house is never in the game you only see the house at night. also the game lacks alot of substance its a find the item sim and then game over. The barn was also there for no reason. you never use it throughout the game yet there is a spot for a key there. not sure if its some secret easter egg but wasnt really needed. graphics were good but would not play again. 5/10 lots of potential tho.
Finde das Spiel ganz gut es hat eine schöne Düstere Gruselige Atmosphäre,die Jumpscares sind auch ganz gut gesetzt für das erste Projekt des Enwicklers fand ich es ganz gut gelungen.Des weiteren finde ich gut das er Copyright freie Musik verwendet hat,und mit Deutschen Untertitel.Kann ich Empfehlen hat Spass gemacht.PS ein sehr netter Entwickler!!! https://youtu.be/sPVSy3gmrTc
I love everything the style the sounds and the surroundings!! One thing its really harsh sometimes for me to know what to do though its actually logical if you listen carefully and read the papers. I really loved it even though a little bit of struggles but great work! I cant wait to see more of your work!
I don't really like horror games, where you need to run away or fight with the monsters but this was a perfect hit. This puzzle game it was really fun to play and there was some puzzles that really made me thinking. The mechanics are really good too i can't wait for the creators to drop another game. I can only suggest this game for others.
Amazing game!! Great Voiceacting, very good jumpscares, creepy atmosphere!
I was really enjoyed the game, the logical quest are not so difficult, however it is requre some thinking for sure! jumpscares was spot on for me until now. I think this is a great indy game, i hope AKNA give us some more game in the future! I recommend to everyone who like those kind of games!
I think this is a good game, considering it was made by a solo developer. Scary sounds, some logical puzzles, great voice acting, simple but well written story. There were a few small annoying bugs, the visibility of the pin code when you have to enter it, and the fact that you can't back out with the escape key, but overall it's worth playing this for a little over 1 hour, it was a good experience.
A STIGMA: The Salem Legacy egy igazán ígéretes horrorjáték, amely jól mutatja, hogy a magyar fejlesztők is képesek nemzetközi szinten is figyelemre méltó élményt alkotni. Az Unreal Engine 5-nek köszönhetően a játék látványvilága kifejezetten részletes, a fények és árnyékok használata pedig erős, nyomasztó atmoszférát teremt. A hangulat az egyik legerősebb eleme: a sötét, feszültséggel teli környezet folyamatosan ébren tartja a játékos figyelmét. Bár találhatók benne jump scare-ek, ezek nem öncélúak, hanem jól időzítettek és hozzájárulnak az élményhez. Emellett a játék különböző puzzle-öket is kínál, amelyek logikusak és szervesen illeszkednek a történetbe, így nem törik meg a játékmenet ritmusát. A történet a salemi örökség köré épül, és fokozatosan bontakozik ki, ami még inkább bevonja a játékost. Az információk adagolása ügyesen van megoldva, így végig fenntartja az érdeklődést. Összességében a STIGMA: The Salem Legacy egy minőségi, hangulatos horrorjáték, amely jól ötvözi a feszültséget, a jump scare-eket és a gondolkodtató feladványokat.
Nagyon szuper jatek ,jok a hangok , igazi horror jatek
