Description

True Fear: Forsaken Souls Part 1 is also included in the True Fear: Forsaken Souls Trilogy


You are walking down a street you don't recognize, the fog slowing your pace to a crawl as darkness blinds you. You pause and look up to see a house; candles flicker in every window, like a beacon. Climbing the few steps to the front door, you realize many years have passed since it was last opened – it has been sealed with rust and purpose. Inexplicably, just as you know the candles are for you, you know someone waits inside. Someone who has remained in that house since before the iron began to rust. They have been patient. Waiting for over two decades. Waiting for you.

True Fear: Forsaken Souls takes the best of the psychological thriller, blending in fun and intuitive gameplay mechanics. The cinematics, puzzles and hidden object phases have been carefully developed and are steeped in a unique and oppressive atmosphere. Episode 1, the first in a trilogy, will long be remembered.

Not bad at all

Not bad. For me the game was a little bit short and really not so scary, but the gameplay was fun - good story, well done puzzles, nice cinematics. Bought on sale and do not regret.

Really good

would've been better if the map showed rooms with hog and whether or not you can do anything in them, it would've saved a lot of going back and forward. The animation was great for a HOG, kinda reminded me of a ps2 game in a good way. Voice acting was above average for this kind of game, actually convincing at times.

Solid Adventure/Puzzle Game

Forsaken Souls is horror/mystery point-and-click adventure with a focus on puzzle-solving and finding hidden objects. The locales and music fit the overall theme nicely, and there are some genuinely spooky parts. There is a good variety of puzzles, and you can set the difficulty level if any of them too easy or too difficult. Admittedly there are some puzzles where it's not immediately apparent what you're actually trying to solve, but these weren't esoteric enough to ruin the overall experience. The story is also very well done, and it kept me wanting more throughout. I liked it so much, in fact, that I immediately bought the second game in the trilogy after finishing the first.

A decent HOG, just not scary

After reading several reviews I thought this game would be an amazing experience. It wasn't terrible, but if you are looking for a horror game this is not it. The story itself isn't bad, better than some B horror movies to be honest, and the actual gameplay is well done with a mix of HOG and adventure puzzling. There are many assists you can active or turn off, for the most part I just used fast travel ability and only needed a hint once. But I was expecting scary and this did not deliver for me.

Point and click that keep you hooked

Indeed, this game keept me hooked. Gave room to my imagination as action develops. Keept asking me questions. And a +1 point , this game does not take itself that serious (" Again, an other emblem ? Who buys this furniture") . Did get some laughts out of me. Somewhat short game but worth the money. That is why I bought part 2 (and part 3 on other selling platform).
