If you like murder... and also... cleaning... then this is the game for you? You're a janitor picking up extra work by cleaning up after a mobster so you can pay for your daughter's treatment. The task is simple enough. Go to each crime scene, dispose of bodies, garbage, clean up blood, swipe cash and jewels, and collect evidence. As you go you'll piece together what happened.

I wish the game focused a bit more on figuring out the crime scenes vs just cleaning them up. it's very much a repeating action over and over game with not too much curve balls. It can be relaxing, or montonous ... depending on your interests!

Lot of activities for those who enjoy being a completionist

A quickie but really fun, more of an immersive interactive short film vs a game. As an ocean lover I really enjoyed it though, worth buying on sale!

A quick mystery/thriller with an early 2000s feel, in the best way. Really enjoyed this story, following Riley as she signs up for an experiment her sister once joined, in hoped of finding her. But as with most mysteries, everything is not as it seems, and Riley has some detective work ahead of her. Something else is going on too... is it supernatural or what?

This was a quick game with multiple endings and a few fun achievements. I am a casual gamer, so it's really good for someone like me. The developer is very present online and answers questions and takes bug reports to make the game better. Overall I really enjoyed it, I hope he gets some funding to make a second game.

The voice actors were nice, and the music chosen fit really well. Though not quite as intense, it reminded me of the OG silent hill games a bit.

This was a fun jump scare game that reminded me of the original layers of fear. I think more could have been done with the story. You don't see anything from the prologue videos in the trailer, in the game. Good to watch them first to get the context, otherwise the context is a bit muddled to piece together. I didn't even realise they were part of the story until after.

You can't really die until the end, so it's mostly a walking sim with point and click. I am a casual gamer so I had a bit of relief that it wasn't stealth. You can mostly take your time digging around, trying to get achievements etc. The atmosphere is really spookie and if you're wearing headphones you will probably jump.

The game is SHORT. I am a slow casual gamer and beat my first round in under 2 hours, and my second in about 30 minutes.

The endings are... confusing at best. I solved it, but not really sure how you're supposed to piece it together unless you guess.

If you're concerned about the dog: there are two endings where the dog doesn't make it out .

It's a short game and you can replay from the last save point for another ending, but I think you need to replay the whole thing for the other 2. The biggest tragedy is you don't get to do much with the dog.

I got the game during the winter sale so it was only a few bucks. grab er on sale.

Good game but short and even with the "good" ending you don't really get all of the plot explained. Enjoyed it, would have liked something a bit longer, and a little more ability to explore the hotel. Overall, worth buying if it's on sale and you enjoy mystery and point and click.

A fun quick game with a unique and interesting premise. You'll play it twice if you want to get all achievements/endings.
You're a DJ subbing in for the local 911 dispatcher due to some mysterious circumstances. An old Killer, thought to be dead, seems to be back. Guide the towns people out of his grasp but you know, also throw some music and ads in there too haha. Good voice acting, fun little map, interesting story, lots of 80s callbacks. A nice casual game!

I am brand new to the franchise and got into this game to play with my bestie who is a direhard fan. I was a bit nervous about the cost, but after playing a few areas I can tell I will be re-playing for multiple endings and achievements.

The graphics are excellent and so are the scenes/settings. I can't remember the last time the ATMOSPHERE of a game stressed me out and scared me so much! The soundscape is award worthy, honestly.

The story is interesting and motivates you. My first playthrough has been on standard, I plan to try harder after. But even as a casual gamer the puzzles are a good balance for me.

The cut scenes are great, but I did have some functionality issues where the game would crash at various cut scenes despite a pc that is way over the requires specs. This seems to be a common issue a few days in after launch, hoping for a patch.

You need multiple plays to get all the endings and achievements... this game has actually scared me on multiple occasions.

The soundtrack is great too. Truly, just really enjoying this. It is living up to the hype for me! Looking forward to replaying it.

This is a fun pretty much hidden object game with a few small jump scares, and one ending with a chase scene. Lots of chances for achievements, and you'll need to replay it multiple times. Occasionally I found the items buggy, I'd take a photo and it wouldn't count, I'd do it again and it would.

Early Access Review
Excellent homage to the first game, with many improvements! You can copy and paste automatically a lot of the text, only need to type a few things, and only a few clues per case aren't ones you collect but rather ones you figure out via the other clues. The story is interesting, and there are some decent achievements that can take some work. Unlike the first one, you can't really progress this time without finding all the clues. Really enjoying it. Keep in mind it's an in progress game and not yet finished at the time of writing this review.
