The Lodge

Its a good small game. I'm not sure if it's lag or just like added effects to kinda "enhance" the going crazy part. The puzzles can be alittle tedious if you're not use to alot of puzzle games that doesn't give alot of hints. It's honestly abit of a shame that the secret messages are kinda un-readable im sure there is something there if you have the time and effort to decode it (hopefully) but i would only really recommend this if you need to about a hour *to kill and like puzzle games.

not at all

A fine free game from some indi devs. Its not optimized so low-spec PC's beware, but otherwise its a fine free short walking simulator.

Игра 'The Lodge' – это захватывающее приключение в жанре survival horror, которое погружает игрока в атмосферу холода, одиночества и паранормальной активности. Оказавшись запертым в уединенном горном домике во время снежной бури, игрок должен не только бороться за выживание, собирая ресурсы и поддерживая тепло, но и разгадывать мрачные тайны этого места. Плюсы игры включают в себя детально проработанную атмосферу, созданную благодаря отличной графике и звуковому сопровождению, которое держит в напряжении на протяжении всего прохождения. Головоломки заставляют задуматься, а не просто механически искать предметы. Сюжет, хоть и достаточно прямолинейный, полон загадок и неожиданных поворотов. Однако, в игре есть и недостатки. Система управления персонажем иногда кажется неуклюжей, что может раздражать, особенно в моменты, когда необходимо быстро реагировать. Кроме того, количество ресурсов ограничено, и порой приходится тратить много времени на их поиски, что может показаться монотонным. В целом, 'The Lodge' – это неплохой выбор для тех, кто любит игры на выживание с элементами хоррора. Несмотря на некоторые недочеты, игра способна подарить несколько часов увлекательного геймплея и запомниться своей атмосферой. Рекомендую к ознакомлению, особенно фанатам жанра.

I couldn't figure out what to do to progress and I suspect my game glitched into the point of no return. I can't recommend based on that although I enjoyed the cheesy dialogue.

This game has potential to be great if it ran well. I had some frame drops in the beginning before it stabilized but everything got worse during and after the chase scene after completing the puzzle. I thought it could have been on my end, but it seems like this was pretty common for others as well. I don't have that great of PC but I can run a lot of other larger more resource heavy games on ultra fine. I didn't finish the game, my eyes could not handle the motion blur and frame drop at the same time. However, I did enjoy the taunting narrator. I don't mind when games don't give you exact directions, I found the paper that gave me the hint for how to do the puzzle but the game didn't tell me the controls besides WASD, shift to run, and F for flashlight. I spent a good 10 or so minutes jus walking around the kitchen and living room with the scrambled furniture until I figured out RMB was how you picked up the paper. Just something small to add in so the player isn't confused. I was trying to hold LMB and E to try and pick it up because I didn't know how. I can't recommend the game as it is now mostly because of the motion blur and lag, but I would love to see the game optimized for most PCs so I can finish it and recommend it in the future. I was interested in the lore and story that was being set up and was quite sad I wasn't able to learn what happened.
