When reason sleeps monsters are born.

Knock-Knock, a unique survival-horror adventure with puzzling mechanics, original cartoon graphics, and twisted atmosphere, is available 20% off for Windows and Mac OS X, on GOG.com. That's only $7.99 for the first week.

[url=http://www.gog.com/game/knock_knock][/url]The developers of Knock-Knock have chosen to shed some light on the unsettling origin of their creation, on their official website: In late November, 2011, a strange and troubling event has happened to our studio. We have received an anonymous e-mail which suggested that we should produce some "unconventional" game based upon the materials attached to the letter. Such offers are a dime a dozen and most of the time they barely deserve any attention at all, however, this one seemed quite different.The attachment contained a set of 19 files added to an archive titled "lestplay". The files (snippets of text, scraps of audio recording, video footage fragments) as well as the style and wording of the message itself appeared to be rather disturbing. The surface examination did not reveal anything straightforwardly terrifying, yet we could not escape the feeling that something truly sinister was lurking underneath.The stranger was begging us to complete the project he has started, yet he also made us well aware of the risk we took as the proposed ludic situation would potentially explain what calamity befell whoever has compiled the ominous archive, thus urging ourselves to meet the same fate.

Knock-Knock is one of those games with a concept that may seem weird at first, but turn out to be really hard to put down once you start playing. In this bizarre survival horror title you'll be defending your cabin in the woods from the phantasmic "guests" that come out of the darkness and roam around the poorly illuminated rooms. Avoid encounters with the abominations of the dark, repair your home, and figure out how to survive a night. With twisted visuals and many interesting gameplay ideas will bring you both thrills and fun. Be careful though, it's dark in there and you might get eaten by a grue!

Some doors are better left unopened, but it would be rude to ignore monsters going Knock-Knock, for only $7.99 on GOG.com. The 20% release discount offer lasts until Wednesday, October 16, at 9:59AM GMT.

Haha, it reminds me of Bloodrayne where the time restricted final bossfight was a super big pain in buttocks, with taunts and a lot of "almost made it", and when I finally beat it, I made the gesture toward the screen only to discover the protagonist did exactly the same :D.

I remember fighting Arnold in Fate of Atlantis... took me almost two days before I realized I can kill him smarter way than simply beating him to death :)
He got many middle fingers during those fights... and a very satisfied middle finger when he finally died :)

If not for Rayne's unbeatable bullet-time, that final boss had been a real pain in the ass for me. :D

Fantastic!
You had me at artbook. Excellent extras.
I'm interested, but to be honest I'm not finding the spastic trailer is helping me make a purchase decision one way or the other.

The art looks cool, but most of the trailer feels like the same careful walking animation over and over. Couple that with the description, which doesn't really cover gameplay, only concept, and I'm left wondering if this game is really pretty, but very dull, or what.

I know there must be more to it, but I have no idea what it is. It's just my opinion, but for whatever it's worth I'd consider re-doing the trailer and/or adding some more descriptive title cards.
Somebody mentioned Ice Pick Lodge Studios?

Color me wishlisted :)

I just watched the trailer and had the same thoughts. Based on the video, it looks like all you do is walk around a house.

I could be wrong but I don't think the trailers are made by GOG but the developers/publishers and GOG adds their bit to the end.

Weirdly enough the trailer is what made me buy it. I like the atmosphere it creates. As for the game play, I figure it's either point and click or move and execute commands from the keyboard. I haven't tried it yet as I want to play The Pit some more before trying something else.
