The Blogger: Pumpkins and Witches

I have mixed feelings about The Blogger: Pumpkins and Witches. At its core it’s a free roam puzzle game where you wander around and try to make sense of your environment. But It’s way too goofy, light hearted, and slow moving to ever really feel scary. I think that almost works to the game’s advantage though. When you are running in circles hoping to stumble upon anything to help you it’s wild to see a random zombie Rudolph, a crucified Santa Claus, or a giant troll that turns to stone. None of things seem to have a use to the story being told, but yet they all exist in this tiny abandoned village. The area where I think where improvement can be made is the game lacks direction. I don’t necessarily think The Blogger is difficult. However, I do think there is room for NPCs to provide some sort of hint on what you should be doing or even some added exposition so the game doesn’t feel like you aren’t just meandering around hoping you are finding the right items. I ended up discovering the game’s ending by complete accident while I was trying to figure out what I still needed to do with the remaining items in my inventory. And it felt like a pretty fitting end to the game all things considered.

It's a good concept. The controls work nicely, and the game has a creepy feel in the atmosphere. I would like checkpoints eventually. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjY9s_ELAo8&t=4s

I played this for almost 3 hours giving it the benefit of the doubt. What I enjoyed - I loved the art style, a mix of salad fingers & nightmare before Christmas vibes. 2. Once I figured out the puzzles, I was enjoying it. what I didn't like - Playing for almost 3 hours and at the last puzzle, during the puzzle, I was killed and had to start from the beginning. This is where I gave up. I was have loved a check point or to be able to save. I would also love not to die during a puzzle. 2nd, The walking was very slow to get around in such a big area. I hope this helps and hopefully improves.

Жуткая атмосфера и интересные загадки, хорошая игра
