for the price, totaly worth it
I originally found this game through a classmate as a joke, and I honestly didn’t expect much. But I ended up buying it anyway and wow, I’m really glad I did. This game is way more fun than it looks at first. The atmosphere is super immersive, and exploring the world feels genuinely tense and rewarding. It doesn’t hold your hand, which makes every encounter feel meaningful and sometimes even a bit scary. It’s challenging, but in a good way. You actually have to think, plan, and be patient, which makes it really satisfying when things go your way. Witch Hunt is one of those games that surprises you the more you play. Definitely recommend it especially if you like slower, atmospheric games with a bit of difficulty.

Хороший игра
I really tried to like this, and I was enjoying it at first, but this game just gets frustrating as hell as time goes on. And hunting the main enemies is a just a pain in the ass. This is really one of those games make you waste a lot of time in vain. It's not a bad game in theory, but it's way too frustrating for my taste.
A crazy game with a minimalist design that creates a perfect atmosphere; it's immersive while also offering freedom of movement—a true testament that budget isn't everything. It's a shame it doesn't have mod support or alternative scenarios for higher replayability.
Awesome game. Atmosphere is the main attractor. A little tedious at the end.
I don't normally write reviews, but I think this game needs it for awareness to new players. This game is not for everyone. It emphasizes the 'hunt' in the Witch Hunt and I don't think many expect that. It's very slow paced and it's difficult. But if that's not a turn off for you, then it's very rewarding also.
this is awesome game please making VR mode

I do not recommend this. While it's conceptually intriguing, the execution makes it an absolute waste of time and an insult to the player. PROS: Runs smoothly on a modern gaming setup. The sound design, foggy woods, and eerie silence are genuinely creepy. The idea of a slow paced, tense monster hunt where you listen and look for clues is engaging on paper. That's about it. The actual execution however, is much worse....take a look here: CONS: The worst map system in gaming history. So the game gives you a map that does not show your location or direction. You have to blindly stumble through a pitch black, identical dead forest guessing where you are. Want a basic map marker? You have to grind gold to buy a compass from a merchant. Who the **** even goes into the woods alone, hunting for some nightmarish creature without something as basic as a compass?? Just absurd. The game also has zero respect for your time. The core of the game forces you on these main hunts which are incredibly infuriating: every single time you manage to put a bullet into the monster, it simply teleports or runs away to a random corner of the woods, forcing you to play a tedious game of hide and seek to find it all over again just to slowly dwindle its health bar down. There is also no real auto save feature while exploring, and it only auto saves when you transition directly between the town and the woods. If you wander the woods for an hour, open multiple hidden chests, find great loot, and get turned around by identical looking trees, you will eventually die due to the many things in the forest that hunt you (half of which you can't fight back against) and lose 100% of your progress. It resets you back to square one with absolutely zero forward momentum. It tries to simulate oldschool games with cheap, artificial difficulty. Final verdict: 3/10: This isn't "hardcore" or "old school" game design. While I can appreciate the atmospheric horror environment, it is lazy, frustrating, and intentionally difficult to waste your time. It feels more like a broken unfinished demo than a finished game. If you beat the first monster....CONGRATS!!! Now you're back in the same part of the woods, only progressively darker (and consequently progressively more frustrating). It's basically just an extremely frustrating horror sandbox simulator where you wander around with little clues, hunting with little payoff. DO NOT BUY THIS unless you enjoy getting completely lost in an identical forest quest after quest and losing hours of progress. Save your sanity and play literally anything else. **** off.
