About
The Gretlow Tapes is a short (~1.5 hours), atmospheric, first-person horror game. Armed with nothing but your camera, you set out to investigate the mysteries of the abandoned Gretlow House.
Experience the realistic found-footage aesthetic and foreboding sound design as you delve into a local legend that might be terrifyingly real.

Set in a small town in Northern England in the year 2000, you play as a local university student and amateur photographer. You've been reading rumours online about the old, abandoned house on the edge of town. They say the shadowy figure of a woman who met a violent end at the manor still walks the grounds, and that anyone who tries to stay the night is never seen again.
You dismissed it as urban legend - until the disappearances started.
Now, you're determined to uncover the truth.
Will you survive the night?

See the world through the lens of your camera to capture your discoveries as you uncover what really happened at Gretlow House all those years ago. Gather evidence in your photo album and use your camera to interact with the memories of the past.

Brave the oppressive atmosphere of the Gretlow House as you explore its dark past. Every sound echoes through the hallways, hinting at someone - or something - that won't reveal itself.

Not as good as their previous games but still worth playing. It's a nice short spooky house game and Aegon Games is a master at adding creepy ambience noises that keep you on the edge and make you want to turn around. Lazareth was one of my favorite games ever and Gretlow tapes isn't so terrible. Just the setting and story are a bit lame compared to A Door in the Basement and Lazareth. I'd still be interested in seeing more games from this dev in the future.
Good creepy exploration game.
게임 재미있어요. 그래픽도 나쁘지 않고 점프 스케어도 깜짝 놀라는 거보단 소름 끼치는 느낌이 더 많이 들어서 좋았습니다. 다만 좀 아쉬운 점은 오브젝트 표시가 좀 더 찾기 편하게 돼있으면 좀 더 플레이하는데 수월하지 않을까 생각이 드네요. 그래도 스토리도 괜찮고 게임 방식은 좀 귀찮은 점이 있기는 해도 재미있기도 해서 즐겁게 플레이했습니다. 1시간 30분 정도면 엔딩 보기에 충분한 게임입니다. 추천드립니다. 모든 테이프 위치 및 도전 과제 몇가지 [spoiler] 1번 테이프 : 처음 저택 들어가서 열쇠 얻는 곳 있는데 그 근처 변기에 테이프 있습니다. 2번 테이프 : tv 있는 공간이랑 주방 사이에 있는 벽 난로 있는 구역에 위에 찬장 있는데 거기 다 여시면 맨 왼쪽에 붙어 있어요. 3번 테이프 : 지하 내려가서 톱니 찾아다닐 때 마네킹 있는 방이 있는데 마네킹 앞에 나무박스 자세히 보시면 그 안에 있어요. 그 방 안에 톱니바퀴도 있습니다. 4번 테이프 : 그 초반 들어가면 이상한 그림 사진 찍는 방 있는데 그 방 나가는 문 옆에 장롱 보시면 왼쪽에 붙어있어요. ( 근데 이게 마지막 지하를 탈출하고 있는 건지 아니면 그냥 초반부터 있는 건지는 잘 모르겠습니다. 초반에 없으면 지하 탈출하고 확인해 보시면 될 거 같습니다. ) 메모지는 그냥 플레이하면서 보고 다니면 충분히 다 확인 가능하고 증거 사진 수집은 카메라 들고 다니면 배터리 옆에 카메라 모양 활성화되는데 노란색으로 변하는 곳만 찍으면 됩니다. 그리고 유령은 보이면 그냥 찍으세요. 도전 과제 완료 뜨면 그 뒤에는 안 찍으셔도 됩니다.[/spoiler]
Honestly, what an Hidden gem that "The Gretlow tapes" is. That game deserve more attention for sure, The better is to experience it, it's worth the shot. i enjoyed playing this game. I'll keep an eye on the Dev, thank you for Creating that Hidden Gem Aegon Games.
I liked the game’s story, atmosphere, and found footage style. The jump scares and sound effects are also great. However, I wasn’t too keen on the maze-like layout of the basement it was a bit annoying. 📹
Nice one
J’ai essayé The Gretlow Tapes récemment et j’ai vraiment aimé l’approche très “found footage”. L’ambiance repose beaucoup sur le silence, l’exploration et les petits détails, ça crée un malaise constant plutôt que des jumpscares gratuits. Si certains veulent voir à quoi ça donne en gameplay, j’ai enregistré ma session ici : https://youtu.be/b5yFkpDrBxw?si=NEA18boGcRRcWVbO Curieux de savoir ce que vous en avez pensé aussi.
분위기 좋아용
진짜 존나 재미없음 공포게임이 아니라 방탈출게임하는 느낌임 줫같이 길찾기도 힘들고 이딴게임이 왜 매우긍정적?
Was expecting it to be scary from what I seen in the screenshots that the game has the gameplay where you can only see some things by using the camera and that scares me a lot. Sadly, it was not scary and it's more less creepy than scary which I was disappointed but it's still a good game if you are looking for a horror game that is more to creepy than scary. Nevertheless, I really like how it takes place in the UK and it does makes me feel like I'm playing Outlast 2 with the camera UI. Overall, a good horror game for those who are looking for a creepy game that build up your fears than a straight jump scare to your face everytime game.
