Transference™

A solid psychological horror, utilising good use of audio files and live action video for exposition. It taps into the subconscious really well, and reminded me of an old-school cult horror movie. Gameplay-wise i found myself really missing a "run" option to begin with, but after an hour it wasn't an issue. Ability to rebind keys is always a plus for me in games, so greatful for this having that option. Short game, but worth playing if you ever see it on sale. Probably not worth the full price unless you are a big fan of the horror genre like myself ❤️

I played this in VR on a Quest 3 with the Touch controllers, and the controls just didn’t work when using either Virtual Desktop or Steam Link. However, through MetaQuest Air Link, the controllers functioned correctly, and I was able to play the game as intended. I also had no issues with uPlay, so as of early 2025, the game is very much playable with this setup. Transference actually has a decent story that I enjoyed, told in multiple ways through audio logs, video logs (FMV), and various in-game events. I’ve always had a soft spot for FMV games ever since I played Under a Killing Moon back in the day, so it’s great to see modern games incorporating this style. I think the graphics are quite good, and I often found myself just looking around and enjoying the scenery, though it might not meet everyone’s standards. The audio design deserves a special mention, as it’s fantastic! You hear voices all around you, with eerie sounds kicking in at just the right moments. The soundscape definitely elevates the game significantly. The horror elements aren’t too intense, even for someone like me who generally avoids scary games, but there were definitely a few moments that really got me, and my heart rate spiked through the roof more than once! I do wish the puzzles were a bit more intricate and prominent because, as it stands, it mostly feels like an interactive VR walking simulator. That said, I still had fun, and I ended up completing the game in one sitting, even though I hadn’t planned on playing that long. I was initially just trying to get the game to work correctly! Recommended! 7/10.

i bought the game even reading the reviews. definitely playable on controller, i would recommend this game when its on sale cause its a pretty good decent thriller horror :)

Gut gelungenes Spiel .

Je commence par le jeu dans son ensemble, un visuel très beau, très propre. Une ambiance très oppressante, très angoissante. Je ne savais pas trop à quoi m'attendre pour l'aspect "horreur psychologique", donc quelques jumpscares mais quand même bien utilisés (pas abusé et pas trop prévisibles). Un peu court mais si on garde à l'esprit que le projet se voulait entre le jeu d'énigme et un film, c'est acceptable. En gros c'est un film interactif qui propose des énigmes tout d'même très simples pour "débloquer" des informations pour avoir une fin plus ou moins éclairée. Je donnerais donc un 6-7 sur 10. Beaucoup de gens on critiqué Ubisoft Connect qui soit disant empêche le fonctionnement du jeu, perso je n'ai eu aucun souci mais bon je me passerais tout d'même de tel système car en partant si vous n'avez pas accès à internet pour une raison ou une autre vous êtes b*isé lol.. Pour les contrôles, c'est effectivement assez mal branlé mais si vous prenez une seconde pour choisir une autre configuration proposé tout roule.:) Donc si vous avez le jeu en spécial, lancez vous, vous ne serez pas décu.:) J'ajouterais que tout le long je n'ai pus m'empècher de trouver que l'acteur ressemblais beaucoup beaucoup au Youtubeur français Feldup haha:)
