This ultra low budget horror adventure game starts out with you having crashed your truck in the forest, upon where you immediately find a note (personally addressed to you!) from some dark forest lord named The Keeper, telling you to leave or else. However, he's kind enough to let you know in precise detail that the generator beyond the river is where he harnesses his power, but you'll never stop him anyway because...

Seriously, what on earth is this rubbish? Nyctophobia sets out to be a Slender-style horror game, the sort we’ve seen so many of in recent years. Unfortunately for it, the game feels far more like the project of a student just starting out in game development, oscillating between scenes as tedious as a TF1 news programme and scenes so close to the ridiculous that they become hilarious. Nyctophobia clearly has...

Nyctophobia is a really bad horror game, I would dare to call it one of the worst one on steam. In Nyctophobia we play as a man who crashes his truck in the middle of nowhere, we find a note that there's a man calling himself The Keeper who will kill you if you don't leave his land and so now you have to find a way out before The Keeper kills you. You do this by looking for items around the map and picking up...

AN UTTER FAILURE THAT CAN ONLY BE EXPLAINED AS DESIGNER MALEFICENCE Category Score Comment Fun/Horror 1/4 It is difficult to review a game that has as many problems as this. There is no fun to be had and the few jump scares present in the game do not justify the time spent Controls /Gameplay 1/4 There is almost no attempt to provide an...

A minefield you can traverse by running round the back of it, an on-rails boat ride and a train station with two rooms. Push some pillars around, run to a generator and it's goodnight, god bless. Granted, I didn't explore every inch of the map but then I'm guessing the developer didn't either because I fell through it twice. Save yourself a playthrough and watch mine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt6qTki4dLs

a boring game made by a dev that has no idea how long flashlight batteries actually last in real life. yes I get it's a game but the main mechanic revolves around feeding your flash light like pack man eats dots. it's borin and not a fun mechanic.

I recommend you to avoid this game, the graphics, sound, and gameplay are horrendous. The game itself feels extremely outdated and poorly optimized. It took me quite a bit to get familiar with the map due to the poor map system. It's a pretty bad attempt at a survival horror game. 3/10

“One night, as you are driving alone along a dirt road in your pick-up truck, you make a wrong turn down the dark depths of the mysterious Lakeview Woods. Your darkest fears come alive…” Nyctophobia is a Horror adventure game, where the player’s objective is to escape the said location. The plot is bland for a ‘Lost in the Woods’ story, and a lot of the threats and pop-ups are either old-schooled or … questionable....

+: Easy to 100% -: Graphics on the screenshots is not great, but in-game it's somehow much worse. Glitches, fall through map couple of times. Luckily there is no fall damage. Generic horror on Unity. Technicaly it's actualy better than some others but yet not good enough.

This game is quite the tragedy. Apparently you die if your flashlight dies. And apparently your flashlight can drain newly packaged pack of duracell batteries in like 30 seconds. Then apparently you're in a forest that happens to have newly packaged 4packs of AA batteries. Does this flashlight even use AA? Collision on the game was quite bad, kept running into trees being wider than they are. Then the last zone of...
