Reviews for "Shadow Tag"

this game is pretty scary but ill keep my cool this game rocks

The effort into making this a challenging and good-looking game is there. It's great to play a "horror" based game that doesn't just throw scares, but also plays crucially on puzzle aspects as well.

Although this play, fail, play again style is implemented very well I do agree with chainsawman2005 on the tediousness. It is enjoyable I'll admit, but it doesn't really help in making me want to play. You have to know each maze inside and out. Where the items are, where the children start positions are, but that means failing multiple times just to check out the area and to learn which positions you must be in at certain times on certain levels. That need to fail to succeed is very tedious trick that elongates the amount of time a player uses to finish the game. I don't agree with that method, but I'm still interested in your reasoning for that mechanic.

Now another issue is that I don't feel this game is all that scary. It isn't just because of the lack of terrifying sequences or images; but the fact that the trial and error system of the game means you must face your fears to learn; which ultimately takes away the fear of losing. The game is themed well enough, I suppose, though with little interaction taken with the Cabin itself. There is no reason for the Cabin, it is just a starting zone. Sounds were very fitting and the ability to tune out music or sound excellent for those of us who simply don't enjoy sound in games (Me, it is distracting).

I think I would have enjoyed the gameplay more if it wasn't a one-way-to-win-scenario. These sorts of games have little reason to go back to them because the "there's only one method" trick gets boring.

hah nice not really into the searching games but the horror creepy possessed children really got me intrested great game
