Ok so ive never seen zero punctuation or anything by Ben Croshaw, and frankly i only bought this game due to how cheap it was, so this was a surprising find! love me some eldritch ♥♥♥♥, stuff that makes me spin the hamster wheels in my head, games that let me build a fundation from my failures! even the way the controls confused the ♥♥♥♥ out of me emphasized how out of my depth and scared ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ i would be if i had less than 3 days to repel an ancient god. 8/10 awesome experience
Con pocos recursos logra meterte en la ambientación e incluso darte algún susto. A pesar del sencillo gameplay consigue llegar a sorprenderte. Las partidas no tardan en volverse repetitivas pero por 1€ se le perdona. Muy chulo.

This game would be so good if it was good
Damn good game 👍
Admitedly I found this game extremely difficult, but it's cheap. Very cheap. And well written. And mechanically quite dense. Definitely recommend. My play time is short, but I'd still recommend this if it was 5x more expensive.
The game is broadly faithful to its source material, so luck is definitely not on your side. I like how it portrays situations and environments. It’s highly atmospheric, and the mechanics fit in seamlessly.
对于打折只要三块钱的游戏来说,质量相当高,虽然画面十分简陋,但内容量很大,足够玩几十个小时,唯一的小小不足是感觉整体难度还是低了一些,策略深度也有限,玩多了会觉得没有挑战感。
baught it because Yahtzee and because it's really cheep. it's just not for me though.
The Consuming Shadow may be simple, but it offers a surprisingly memorable experience. The game’s atmosphere is tense and unsettling, and the gameplay, while basic, really keeps you engaged as you try to survive in a world full of strange horrors. The random generation of events adds replayability, and the minimalist style works well to create an eerie, mysterious vibe. It’s not a complex game, but it definitely leaves an impression. 7,5/10 Simple but effective, it’s a great experience for those looking for a unique horror game.
