A Surprisingly Charming Horror Shooter
Oozes atmosphere with a keen sense of horror, and a charming sense of humor. HROT is one of the rare few games with a very strong sense of personality. There's lots to interact with which is great, and what really kept me playing was the fact that I had no idea what was coming next. This is thanks in large part to how well the levels are designed--fundamentally great--and how many little details there are. You'll never get lost despite the maps feeling labyrinthian which is deserving of praise. There are lots of secrets per level, including some secret levels, which I'm not quite good at finding myself... but they're still fun to seek out. I found myself returning to places I've already been just to make sure I didn't miss any tiny detail that would lead to a secret. The soundtrack is pretty ambient, though it knows when to kick in and drive the emotions home. I found myself getting quite creeped out thanks in large part to the soundtrack. There's a few good scares, but I don't think they would've worked nearly as well without the soundtrack keeping the unsettling atmosphere at a palpable level. Pair that with the great sound design, and you'll find yourself looking over your shoulder as you navigate through some rusty, bleak hallways. I really want to give praise to the little details in each level. Some levels have one-off interactable gags, and there's even a little minigame you can find just by looking around. HROT is a really interesting and unique shooter. The game's definitely charming, and I'd even say it has some quirky bits, which I mean in the best way possible. There's still a lot of secrets I have to discover, but I spent a good 4.5 hours on this game and enjoyed every single minute. I'd say this is worth a purchase even at full price, especially if you're the type of player that loves exploring levels and finding secrets. Oh, and I just have to say, love the Wolfenstein 3D and Robocop references.
