Suffer The Night

This game was actually pretty fun! I enjoyed the beginning of the game when you're in the house, as well as the text based dungeon crawling sequence on the computer. I liked how annoying the antagonist was during the first segments of the game. Some of the puzzles throughout the game are good and I like the collectibles you can obtain and how they are used. The boss fights are a bit boring and bland, but the concept of the game was interesting and the story kept me intrigued. The final fight was interesting and added some extra elements. Towards the later parts, it felt a bit drawn out, but the game as a whole was fun, and I'd definitely recommend it.

its a fine game made with real passion and talent but its really lacking at the same time i would split the game into two parts, prologue and main game but honestly this game has an insane tone shift between the two sections making it not scary at all the prologue is basically a home alone walking sequence i was expecting maybe a fnaf or clocktower sorta thing where u need to do tasks with an enemy lingering behind u but saddly that never occurs the game proper is litterally just a light combat horror themed game which was fun but it felt dragged out at times and was sorta boring but it had cool ideas

This game has a cool core concept and great ideas at play, I just think it suffers heavly from clunkiness. Yes, horror games are slow but this one feels unbearable at times. It's cool that you have to go manually through doors and items, but then, the doors are hard to open because of the mouse movement and the items are hard to spot and pick up because you have to be so precise about them. Then there's movement that's slow and the constant back and forth you have to do. Everything feels like you are doing a chore before the part you get to have fun, which never comes. I also think the start could be much shorter. In it you are playing a game on your computer but every 2 minutes or so you are interrupted by an annoying loud noise or random thing happening in your room, I think it would be much better if you had to get up less from the game to deal with random stuff, completely took me out of the little computer game and just made me annoyed. It pains me to say I did not like this game because the art is gorgeous and they really had a killer concept (albeit not a particularly original one), but yeah, I felt like it was trying to make me immersed but ended up feeling like it was wasting my time at every opportunity. I'm all for supporting indie devs but for this one watch a gameplay if you are interested or buy it at a sale, I don't think it's all that fun for it's full price, even though I think full price should be justified just by the quality of assets alone.

Chilling, survival-horror, worth the price.

Итак, Suffer the Night пройдена, и я ни за что не порекомендую этот кусок говна никому. По порядку. Плюсы: 1. Музыка. Она действительно моментами (но только бл моментами) доставляет. 2. Все, хватит плюсов. Минусы: 1. Какой дегенерат умудрился связать это и Лавкрафта? В каком, нахер, месте это Лавкрафт? Даже сюжет здесь максимум можно притянуть, и то сильно за уши, к Клайву Баркеру, а конкретно, к Восставшему из Ада. 2. Управление. Ощущение, будто твоя скорость в несколько раз медленнее, чем должна была бы быть. 3. Однотипные, бессмысленные и не несущие под собой никакого сюжетного оправдания загадки. На записях было сказано, что комнаты создаются конкретно под каждую жертву - почему, ♥♥♥♥♥, главная героиня боится невидимок и парков аттракционов, это говорить надо, а не просто набрасывать ассеты чтобы было дорохо-бохато. 4. Сюжет кусок кринжа. 5. Чтобы получить хорошую концовку, будь добр пылесось все уровни и находи ВСЕ секреты. Нет, народ, так дело не пойдет. Ваша игра не настолько хороша, чтобы вызывать желание ее перепройти, а такой плевок в лицо в концовке - да пошли вы ♥♥♥♥♥ с таким убожеством. Итак, этой пародии на игру я поставлю не более, чем 3/10. Не играйте в это и не смотрите на положительные отзывы. Этот сблев недостоин внимания. Играйте в хорошие игры, товарисчи, а в дерьмо (как это) за вас буду играть я.

Missable tarot card before the funhouse ruined my run, locking me out of the "good ending". Horrendous design decision.

Suffer the night is not a bad game, but it is definitely "First project by a small team" type game. Which isn't a bad thing, and is honestly pretty alright considering that. Main complaints: Opening drawers/doors is annoying to do, and while it would add to horror (tension of doing it correctly), it never shows back up outside of the start of the game. To get the "Good ending" you need to collect tarot cards, but the "Funhouse" section is unexplorable after completion. MOST of the game takes place in that area, or at least felt like it did. There is a stealth area with invisible enemies, and the game hints at it being a "Stealth" thing to do to avoid detection. Except you also have to walk in water, which alerts enemies because of the sound. So instead you just spam the flash. I had health upgrades at this point, so unsure if it is possible without them, but you can just out-spam the enemy with the flash. In the same area as above, there is a bugged staircase that is not an instant climb up, and takes repeated attempts of running at it to let you climb. There are quite a few reports in the discussion area about this (I would change my review to positive if this gets fixed tbh) The starting area does tension pretty well! And I was kinda hoping for a FNAF style defense type game at the start before changing to what the images are promoting. This does not happen, and I realized pretty quickly that you just can't die there. Everything else is either average to great. I really enjoyed the paintings in Stacey's house being used as enemy designs, needing to click specific things with your mouse to use was great and I wish the game extorted the tension from having to be precise, and Mr.Tops presence at the start was great. TLDR: Game isn't overly worth buying as it's 4 hours, but playing the first 1 1/2 hours is a fun time way before any issues show. So it might be worth buying for that. Game is totally worth a random friday night playthrough in a discord call if you can get it on sale.

Suffer The Night is a pretty good horror action game and it's made by Tainted Pact the same people that made Weeping Falls Massacre and Terror at oakheart, but what is the story. On a stormy night famous cover artist Stacey Linden is at home alone, after having woken up and a storm raging outside she decided to just unwind and have a relaxing night at home. Sadly a relaxing night at home is not happening for Stacey as she will be the target of a demon known as Mr Top, soon she'll be dragged into his twisted games with her life and freedom put on the line, but can she do it, can she defeat Mr Top and escape or will it be game over for her. Now the likes, the story is pretty good it has some nice twists and turns and like the makers previous games it's a love letter to classic 80’s horror cinema and culture and if you know the 80s you'll definitely recognize a few things. The gameplay is very good at first after waking up you do simple tasks, after you get the floppy disk you play a sort of text adventure like a horror version of Oregon Trail, but soon you get transitioned into an action horror game where you have to shoot monsters and solve light puzzles, I thought the transition was quite well done and the buildup was well paced. There’s also a mini game you can play in Stacy's home, in her basement there's an arcade cabinet where you can play this side scroller, it was okay although the jumping mechanic is a bit floaty and can be hard to control sometimes. Another interesting thing about the gameplay is this camera we get, using it will allow you to find hidden objects and passageways that can help you traverse the game although there's a little problem with it but I'll get to that in the dislikes. The puzzles were good like the previous game Weeping Falls Massacre it's easy to figure out with plenty of hints on how to solve it. The graphics are good even better than their first game Weeping Falls Massacre; you definitely see a lot of improvement from their first game to this game with a nice use of colors, designs and scenery. The levels are good the house is memorable and definitely has a nice retro 80s look to it, the other parts of the game’s levels like the dungeon and that circus level is memorable and each area has a unique aesthetic and the explanation to why these areas exist is explain very well. The enemies and bosses are good, I was surprised this game had bosses and they had interesting looks, I particularly like the bad guy Mr Top not only does he have a great voice, I liked his design, he's creepy yet sort of charming in a way with his dress and top hat, kind of gives off a Jack the Ripper kind of vibe. The floppy disks/audio logs are good, now you're probably wondering why I'm talking about, well in the game there's these floppy disks that act as audio logs and like I said I liked them as they explained the story and the game’s mechanics. The music is very good it's pretty kickass, especially the rock song in the ending credits it's a nice song to rock too. The voice acting is pretty good I think my favorite voice actor is RR Green who voice’s Mr top and the developer, he has this creepy yet charming voice and I swear in some parts he almost sounds exactly like Joker in the Batman 2004 cartoon played by Kevin Michael Richardson. Honestly I hope this guy gets more voice acting gigs in the future. The atmosphere is good; in the first level it definitely feels nice and creepy and can definitely make you jump before it transitions into more of an action horror game. Now is this game scary, well yes and no the first half of the game where you're just in Stacey's home definitely can be creepy and put you on edge. But when we get to Mr Top’s world it transitions from horror to more of an action horror game which is not bad and I think they did it well. Now the dislikes, there are some bugs in the game like on one part when I was picking up this pot my game froze and another weird bug is with the bad ending achievement, you see I want to get the bad ending first and the good ending last. I definitely got the bad ending first and then the good ending, but after I got the good ending I found out the bad ending wasn't counted even though I could see it in the completed area of my achievements, yet as I said it wasn't counted. That was really weird, I was able to get that achievement though, still very odd that it happened. Also as I said in the gameplay we get a camera that allows us to find invisible/hidden objects and pathways, the problem with it I feel like it wasn't taken far enough. Like I really wish there was a segment where you could only traverse an area with the camera, like if there's an invisible Bridge or something that can only be made visible with the camera, or there's a boss that's invisible and the only way to hurt them is to use the camera along with your gun. We do get invisible enemies and the ability to stun them, but that's like in the last part of the game, I don't know I feel like more could have been done with this kind of game mechanic but that’s personally what I think. Now with that done Suffer The Night is a pretty good horror action game and it's made by Tainted Pact the same people that made Weeping Falls Massacre and Terror at oakheart, it has a pretty good story, very good gameplay and good enemies and bosses. Now this is the part where I recommend this game and I absolutely do recommend it, this is a good game to play especially if you're going to play Terror at oakheart since there's a reference to this game.
