Short and sweet RPG Maker Goodness
The Witch's House MV is a remake/update of the homonymous RPG maker game. It features improved graphics, controller support and an extra difficulty mode with new puzzles and extra scenes. While in my opinion the Extra difficulty mode feels a little cheap at times, if you enjoyed the original and are craving more this is a very good option. It's the same Witch's House you love, but better. If you have never played the original and are checking this out there is plenty to love here. The Witch's House is a messed up horror RPG Maker game (although the RPG elements are nonexistant). You wake up in the middle of the forest, lost, and the creepy mansion further in seems to be your only option. Inside, you will have to solve puzzles to advance, while at the same time trying not to die. And believe me, you will die a lot on your trip within the mansion. Don't be fooled by the anime graphics, the game manages to create a creepy and tense atmosphere throughout it's entire duration, all, the way to the end. There are a couple endings depending on your actions, and the True ending features one the the best twists that I've seen in a videogame. The puzzles are surprisingly logical and you should be able to solve them without the need of a guide (on normal, at least). If you die you can try inmediately afterwards with very little progress lost. Being that most of the scares are of the jump-scare variety and that dead comes easily to the unprepared, you will be glad for this feature. The duration is short, you can probably beat the game in 1-2 hours on your first playthrough, but it is replayable if you want all endings. I think it really doesn't need more, but if you are looking for something longer there are probably better options out there. In short: if you like horror games, you like RPG Maker games and are looking for a short and sweet experience, this is definitely the game for you, Don't hesitate to grab it and good luck inside the mansion.
