Vartio

I really like the atmosphere of the game. I just wish there was more to it. Like seeing a something in the distance that disappears as it gets closer. Or maybe the path gets harder to follow in later loops. By the third loop I did't feel any sense of danger, and knew I could ignore everything and just follow the path. But I see a lot of potential if the original concept is expanded on.

I liked it. It does a lot with so little, driving you into a state of paranoia thanks to the great sound design. A good game for the price of a coffee.

As someone who is a big baby when it comes to horror games, this game gave me a good fright. No jump scares, but the atmosphere is perfect to put you in an unsettling mood. I would liken the experience to reading a nice short horror story, so if you want something quick to play with a little chill, I would recommend it.

A little too slow, and not enough reward.

I'm not here to blow smoke up anyone's bum. I think this was a great little project and well worth two bucks, even if some people were disappointed. Seeing a small project like this get "mixed reviews" makes me sad because there are so many other small games that get plenty of love. I think anyone that downvotes this game just didn't have headphones in, or were expecting something more than a short cool experience. My only complaint about the game is that the audio for the "MORTIS style" voice lines was too high in a game that's best experienced with volume turned up. Good job devs. I don't know what it is that creates a specific atmosphere, but it 1000% reminded me of wanding in the woods alone at night lol.

A good, short, unsettling game. If you've ever walked alone at night in the woods, this game will speak to that experience. The sound design is fantastic, and does most of the "horror" work. I think the simplicity of the art lends itself well to the way darkness tends to sort of flatten everything out. I really enjoyed it.

Vartio is just a disappointment. The game didn't look bad in the trailers, and the visuals are really good, but the game itself is literally nothing. If it were free I would understand, but for now its 4/10.

For how much money and time it's asking it's good enough. Liked the ambient sound work and atmosphere. If this is developer's test try before building something bigger around the idea, then I'd love to see and play that too.

[h1] И всё? [/h1] Игра СЛИШКОМ короткая — всего 24 минуты. Просто погулял 3,5 круга — и ВСЁ! ИГРА ЗАКОНЧИЛАСЬ! Лучше бы добавили что-то интересное, мне стиль и атмосфера понравились, а не делали бы её такой короткой!
