Visage

Know somebody who might be like this game?

Summary

Each death has its visage. How will you face them?
Visage is a first-person psychological horror game. Explore a mysterious ever-changing house in a slow-paced, atmospheric world that combines both uncannily comforting and horrifyingly realistic environments, and enjoy a genuinely terrifying experience.

Storyline

The game takes place in a secluded town in the 1980s. The house you are in has been there for centuries, and its foundations never seem to decay. Dozens of families have lived here. Many of them died brutally, while others lived their lives placidly in their beloved home. Is there something triggering inevitable deaths, or is it pure coincidence?

I normally don't write reviews, but Visage was different, so I felt obligated to write oneThe atmosphere and the vibe generally felt darkI normally don't write reviews, but Visage was different, so I felt obligated to write oneThe atmosphere and the vibe generally felt dark and depressing, maybe lonely, mix that with random events happening throughout the game and the sense that everything seems normal but isn't.The game also doesn't give you much to work with at first, that's maybe a bit confusing, but the game eventually unfolds itself, and it's worth pulling through with itVisage for me is psychological horror at its finest, and something no horror fan should miss out on

However, it feels like for every few things that Visage does right, it does something not so right.In particular, the UI and controls definitely could've used more polish and testing. I played through the entire game, and it never really felt like I ever got used to how the inventory and menu systems work. The game explains it well enough, but in execution it gets a little messy. It's not enough to ruin the game per se, but enough to nag at you throughout it all. Furthermore, the sanity system is weirdly implemented at times; something as simple as a clock ringing out in the middle of the night will cause your sanity to go down, while climbing down a rope of intestines doesn't effect it whatsoever. While some of this can be explained by story events, other times it just feels inconsistent.Your enjoyment of Visage will depend on how able you are to look past these flaws, as they never really go away. However, as mentioned before, the game does have some genuinely creepy elements to it, and the story goes in a wild direction that'll assure you won't forget the game anytime soon. I'd recommend it if you're a fan of atmospheric horror games, but do be warned that the game does have some noticeable bumps and hiccups here and there.

I wouldn't doubt that the game is pretty terrifying. Visuals are impressive. And there are some story beats to appreciate. The game's problemI wouldn't doubt that the game is pretty terrifying. Visuals are impressive. And there are some story beats to appreciate. The game's problem is its direction. I don't have too much of a problem slowly walking around a spooky house and clicking light switches and finding keys and all that usual stuff you find in indie horrors. Running away from creepy dudes is always tense, but why am I here? Where am i running to? What is the point if I don't have any context for any of this stuff? Just give me at least a little bit of context before you make me walk through this same corridor for the fifth time!I think the developers built a series of spooky environments, some spooky looking enemies, made everything real dark and spooky-like...then they figured out what the rest of the game was meant to be about. Well...I need more of a purpose to s*** my pants.
