is the game dat spooky? |
Yeah it is. (At least at the start, I'm only about 15 minutes in). It's a combination of things but I think it's mostly the noises. If you had the game on mute it wouldn't be nearly the same.
Your character is a bit sluggish to control and plods around with very loud footsteps. Opening doors is painfully slow, you have to reach out and they creak open inch by inch, or you can shove them open and it makes a lot of noise. You have to turn on nightvision mode on the camcorder to navigate through dark rooms. Then there's the creaks of floorboards and strange noises around you, which make you feel like something is creeping up on you. The music is also really good, making you feel uncomfortable and building the tension all the time. I also noticed that things flicker at the edge of your vision as you enter or leave rooms, it could be a glitch, but if it's deliberate, it's a nice touch.
I was playing the game yesterday and my dog jumped up on to the sofa at the same time something in-game screamed and jumped at me in the dark. I nearly screamed 
Then it was back to relaxing petals floating in the wind. lalalala.
