정말 뜻깊은 내용과 의도를 가진 게임입니다. 깨달음으로 지금까지의 생활을 뒤돌아볼수있는 게임이며, 공포 게임이 아닌 거의 리틀 나이트 메어에 가까운 퍼즐 게임이며, 꼭 추천하는 게임입니다. 추천 드려여
I met the team at PAX East in Boston great group of people and it shows in how much team work went in to this game. This game is a breath ofd fresh air in a world thats gecoing stedfast with clones and remakes. To all the team at Playmind Thank You, Loved the game when I played the demo and now that I have it I cant wait to playthrough the whole game. P.S. Limited Run Games would that be a maybe???
Just finished playing the game, and personally I loved it. To me, it's an artpiece. The environments and moods were interesting and well thought, the characters were really creepy by times and the sound design was...well, just amazing in itself. I don't know how many times I lowered the volume a bit to finish a section because the sounds were just way too scary, while other times it just added so much to the mood and story. I should add that it's not as scary as other games such as Outlast, which I find unbearable to play. This is something else... Beautifully creepy and just....odd. I found the puzzles original and interesting, and liked how they linked the inner child within all of us. Well, I related to the main character. The collectibles were a nice touch as well. It's a good game to play with a non-game watching, since it's creepy just to watch, and you can try to solve the puzzles together. Can't wait to see what they do next.
这款游戏真的首先是画风吸引的我,我以为是一个恐怖游戏,结果玩了之后发现是一个解密类,但是里面一些怪诞的游戏场景真的很不错,很棒的体验,特别是里面的氛围营造的很好,解密也不是很难,甚至整体玩下来会有一种自行想象剧情的奇妙感,类似开放结局吧~值得推荐~~~
The Inner Friend is a visually stunning journey through the protagonists memories as depicted through the lens of a child's nightmares. You'll be thrown into a melodic fearscape of puzzle challenges as you navigate each dream world to face your darkest fears and collect childhood mementos. Each fear is presented in the form of a wraith-like creature and up to the player's interpretation. Perhaps a reflection of our own frightful memories of a time we were at our most vulnerable. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of immersion I experienced during my 3-hour playthrough. This included a few well timed jump scares and loud screams.
Interesting game but not worth the full price (€12,50) for 99.9% of Steam users.
not the best of this sort of this game i've played but the puzzles are pretty good and the graphics are very easy on the eyes. The story is too abstract for my liking but the gameplay holds it up.
Lindo juego. Cortito pero con una atmosfera muy bien lograda y un diseño de escenarios muy creativo
Honestly The Inner Friend was a nice change of pace for Horror Games that I have had the pleasure of coming across. It is not the longest game in it's genre sure, but it tells a story of someone facing their fears that seemed too great to face when they were younger. Something that a lot of us, myself included, would love to have the chance to do for the sake of closure. With not only a horror aspect but puzzles and a sense of wonder and rediscovered imagination that we all tend to lose as adults "The Inner Friend" is a game and a story worth your time. I did a playthrough on my Channel below for anyone who is interested. Thanks for your time! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLUeH9_bJKY
I had this game in my wishlist for over 2 years as I could never figure out wtf it actually was. A T-rated horror game walking sim but-not-really with light puzzle elements sounds like a tough sell but I'm glad I picked this game up and discovered what it's all about. This game isn't necessarily 'horror' in the classic sense but it definitely nails a sense of dread and sometimes that can be more difficult to nail than horror itself. I loved the SIZE of the environments in this game, even in something like the school level the hallways stretch for what seems like an infinity and all the settings are so endless that once the ending hits and everything clicks, it's a really powerful moment. The [spoiler] final boss battle resolution + the reveal of the old man was a seriously powerful combo[/spoiler]. The secret/hidden ending seems to explain 90% of the plot in about 2 minutes, so anyone who finished the game without collecting all collectibles will want to track down the video of that to actually piece together what happened...more or less. Glad I checked this game out and if you like surreal story-based games, this is a great pickup.
