THE GAME

DISTRAINT is a 2D psychological horror adventure game for PC.

You step into the shoes of an ambitious young man named Price.

In order to secure a partnership in a famous company, Price seizes the property of an elderly woman.
In that very moment, he finds out the price of his humanity.

This is his story and the tale of his regrets...

FEATURES:

DISTRAINT is a horror-novel style of game. It is dark and grim but also has its share of dark humor.

The story progresses quickly which allows for several settings and scenarios. Your journey will last around two hours!

The gameplay is simple but effective: You move left and right and solve puzzles to progress through the atmospheric story.

  • Side scrolling 2D with unique, hand drawn graphics
  • Atmospheric music and sound design
  • Minimalist interface so your focus never wavers from the experience
  • Delve into a unique story full of intriguing twists
  • One man effort - No asset flips or cheap tricks, just hard work!

Amazing game, but could be better

Distraint has some real spooky themes and atmosphere, but the fact you are almost never in any real danger can take away from the fear factor sometimes Sometimes the game has incredibly unique puzzles.... and sometimes we get things like the Mushroom Level, where you're just running around through every door you see hoping you don't get lost Regardless, its a fun spooky game with an affordable pricetag

More of a Walking Simulator

Distraint is a short game and i wouldn't call it a horror adventure, dont't expext to be scared of this game, but its has a kind of Franz Kafka storytelling. The focus is clearly on the script with some easy solveable puzzles an a few not nonsense puzzles. Those can be solved easely, because there are very vew points to interact with.

Laughably bad

The paper-thin plot is barely coherent, the puzzles are nonsensical for the most part, and it's barely just a bunch of random elements thrown together. It crossed over into "so bad it's good" territory a few times, like the kind of movie you'd see RiffTrax make fun of, but other parts were just tedious and annoying. I'm sure the developer worked hard on this, but more work on making a story that actually means something and puzzles that aren't arbitrary and goofy would help. There's apparently a sequel, and I almost want to check it out to see if it makes any improvements on the first.

Terrifying, challenging, smart

Great puzzles. Taking inspiration from but not ripping off Silent Hill 2(one of the best games ever made) and removing the combat element gives us this. The horror is quite effective with a constant creepy atmosphere that gradually increases and occasionally peaks with brief flashes of intense brutal gore. The important message is clearly communicated

disturbing, short, find your humanity

for the music track alone, this game is worth the purchase. the story is endadging, and rather distrubing.
