Community Insight:
This game was very challenging, even thought it is old now . We highly recommend this game app. Please devs make another game app similar to this one. We really enjoyed playing it.
Top ten biggest plot twist we dot. Think Ive ever been so scared in a game amazing.
The graphics was phenomenal we would play more games from you guys.
The gameplay is perfect its great! Bro you actually got us. We havent logged out a horror game because we felt eerie in a while.
..download this gameat first its not so scary but.as you move onyou behin to feel somethings not right.and your rightsomethings not right.
Fantastic adventure! Incredible and realistic graphics, you actually feel like youre in the scene. Seamless play with just a tiny learning curve. Great storyline, the perfect atmosphere and amount of foreboding and creepiness. Its much different, in a good way, than the typical point and click/hidden object adventure, its more like being part of an immersive story. Ive owned tons of horror/adventure games and this one is one of the best. Its awesome and Im enjoying it thoroughly. We own other titles in the developers collection and they are equally awesome.
This game was SO scary! Finally, and actually scary mobile horror game! We love this game so much and look forward to more games like it.
NO spoilers here. This is an exploratory game where you travel to different areas (scenes) and discover information about a family. The game involves you rotating the view around and reading tidbits that are easily found. Each scene has a panoramic 360 degree view, and you can even pan up and down. Visuals are superb, and that combined with the creepy music and sound effects really do put you in the scene. Sometimes the scenes can do a great job in giving you a sense of dread or terror. This is probably first "still image" game where we just couldn't put it down. Even though you don't move around the way you do in traditional games, the panoramic views help you feel like you're moving. There were A LOT of times when we thought, "we really don't want to go back there" because we suspected something bad might happen lol. There was never a moment when we thought the movement from scene to scene or exploration was tedious. Finally, when you think you see the credits and the game is over, keep watching.
This is a good game it has good graphics and when we died and we walked 4 times we saw a blurred thing we assumed that this game is real.
Really good game great graphics overall 10/10 would recommend.
We cant say enough great comments about this app. Truly amazing concept of still life photos in black & white, with an immersive storyline, as you collect clues along the way. VR, with frightening sound effects & music, which adds to the uncertainty of the situation. It definitely has the creepy effect, we thoroughly enjoyed the app. & experience! We hope the developer of this app. Brings more similar ones to the app. Store in the future. We would buy every one. Great suggestion, future stories similar in nature, & fear factor, where you could buy individual chapters to complete the story. That would just be the best! This app. Is surely worth a 5 star rating! Kuddos to the developer.
This game, left us PARINOID. We kept thinking we saw this horse hea.
We see this game to have so much potential, and the short play through we enjoyed it throughly, we enjoyed the story very much, but we do wish for more interactive moments rather then simply reading from the yellow dots. There were some odd dialogue choices, and some odd features in the plot or setting, the game all around was short and sweet, and we enjoyed it heavily.
From the start we had high hopes that the game would pull us in and thats exactly what it did. Its impossible to quantify or compare this to other horror games because its as if the game is one of one in its gameplay and atmosphere, and we do believe there should be a sequel. Our only gripes would be lack of replay value, ending, and linearity. But other than that its nothing short of great and stress inducing.
The graphics and sounds are great and why this game got 4 stars. The story was decent but definitely lacking. There was only one unpredictable point in the game the rest was easily seen by any horror fan. The ending has potential, but rushed and also lacking. We would like to see future games with a bit more thought and story behind them.
Very atmospheric and dark, which we love. Wish it had been longer.
This game is really cool and fun but maybe add more chapters and make it look more realistic. Other than that this game is amazing.
We loved the plot and was very surprised by the ending! Although, personally, we don't find it to be very scary. We think some may find it scarier than others. Over all, we enjoyed it and had fun.
We wouldve liked it better if we could walk around on our own. Other than that, there was lots of reading and the game was pretty predictable.
We cant get past the fifth or sixth scene in the game. There is one hotspot that we found, but thats it. We dont see anymore hotspots and therefore cannot progress to the next scene. Thank God this game was free and didnt cost us anything. Disappointed. Looks like it had some promise but, based on the other reviews, its probably not worth your time or ours.
Nice art. Nice atmosphere. Not scary. No puzzles. No choices to be made. Just click on anything thats highlighted, follow the arrows, and thats it. The epilogue after the credits was interesting. Would have been cool to see the story in the epilogue go somewhere.
This was a boring game. Not worth the time downloading and playing it.
When we download it we were really confused but we start to understand the game, the story is literally the best we ever heard! Please continue doing this type of games because is really interesting.
This game is awesome. We just finished it and we are sad because we love this game and its not anything like the other games. One change we would like is for it to be longer like theres more chapters and it keeps going on with the story. Otherwise, its pretty much perfect.
We were very scared. It was so scary at the end when the big jumpscare happened. We are intrigued please make another one like this.
Omg we love this game! Great job on it its amazing NOTHING bad with it to.
We really hope you guys make more to the game. We LOVED playing this and was bummed when it got cut off.
More like this would be awesome.
Plsss make another game the game is great or just update it thanks bye.
We absolutely love this game! But when we tried to move on it said rate in the App Store and we did but it wont continue Im not really sure what to do but we really like this game.
We found lots of Articles on the guy Samuel Wardwell over the internet and Wiki pedia on there is tons of all articles on him and maybe his family What ever he did back in the 1600s It wasnt a very good thing and he was executed for witchcraft way back in the 1600 Centurys and we found different sites that had connections to witchcraft and satanism and murder when he and his family lived in Massachusetts way back centuries ago in the 1600s.This apps game is so weird and walking through the haunted forest alone and by ourselves and finding clues and chains with real blood on it and a black cloth following us around in the forest and finding human and animals body parts and finding an old farmhouse way back in the woods that was built in the 1600s sometime and we walked into the old house and found more haunted clues and then we ended up in the up stairs and found more clues and clothes and pictures and a telephone that ranged and a answering machine clicked on and said the guy owes money and lots of money to some other guy This whole entire game apps is totally weird and bizarre and violent bloody and something follow us around from the forest and into the old farmhouse that they built in the 1600s century and way back in the forest This keeps getting weirder and weirder.Play the game apps and you will see what will happen Spooky and ominous Good Luck.
Love this game it is vary scary and thats why we love the game thank you.
The atmosphere is truly killer and Ive been looking for atmospheric horror games too anyway. We just wish the scary music at the end was in the mobile version here. Please add that. But, still, we are in LOVE with this game! Its almost like the blair witch project.
This is awesome the graphics are like real life its so great.
Pretty good not super scary but fun.
This game continued to blow us away until the very end! It was so beautifully put together and left us questioning! We hope you will make more games similar to this one in the future.
The atmosphere really makes this game. Its creepy with a few really good spooks. Solid story development with some beautiful photography work. Very simple game, rather slow paced, but wonderfully done.
We loved this game this was the first ever vr scary game we liked and its all thanks to the creators thank you for making this game we loved we hope you make another game just like it thank u.
Thank you so much for creating this game.unlike all the other jump scare games. This one will keep u going and little do u know ur mind will scare u more then the game. Great atmosphere. Creepy ending. And boy did we jump.. Thank u kindly for this game and will be looking forward to many more of ur creation like this. (Strangely gamer games) strangerthanu.
Its been really great in the game and some scares but totally worth it.
This game was really fun to play and we can defiantly say we havent played something like this before, and we honestly enjoyed it. Of course we would have really wanted to play from the killers point of view in the end, but we guess you cant always get the things you want in life. But even though we were a bit disappointed with not being able to play the killer, the ending was just so sweet and it melted our heart! So all in all this was a great game and we enjoyed playing it.
This game was very decent and suspenseful. The only trouble we had was with the camera viewing, but other than that it was a very good and scary game that we have been looking for. You cant find great games like this one, and we do want more from you. Good job.
When we played the game we thought it was the most creative game ever!! It was also very creepy, like when the dolls had red eyes and the footsteps up the stairs. We like that it only gives us little details about the story so the rest is all a mystery.
We love the game wardwell house that was such a scary game but we think you should make a part two of wardwell house.
Loved the game it was amazing but to us it was kind of short and the ending wasnt that amazing and scary . We do love the color texture though cause it looks real . Ill be waiting for the next update.
Its good like it. Needs to be longer.
We really enjoyed this game. Spooky atmosphere. We hope there will be a series of these. It was too short.
Incredible game, very scary and very intriguing. We enjoyed this game more than many other scary apps we have played. We were wondering if there could be a Wardwell2? We loved this way too much. 5/5 stars.
It was really good but we want so much more. We are super confused about the parts because it wasnt very detailed only some little details but otherwise not. We would recommend this game but not for ages 9+ maybe 12+ because we are 12 and it was fun just maybe 9 year olds would get scared be we know we did. But it was a wonderful game and a great experience just want more.
