I wish there was a part two with weapons and stairs and secret room ans stuff ...smooth play fast crashes once in a while but its really fun MAKE A PART 2 ..ad rooms and make like a game mode withno monster cuz he gets annoying somtimes ### 5/5 — Very fun game *2015-04-25, version 1.4.0* This game is a really good horror game. For IOS. However, it is far too easy for such a unique and well polished horror game. You guys can do better. Make the monster faster, or completely redesign the monster. Add a view jump scares even. But not the cheap ones that cover up your screen and they're just pictures. I'm talking like this: Make the monster unpredictable. Every Once in a while, make it to where you are unable to hear the monster regardless of where it is. Also, make the monster stop walking and listen every once in a while to spook the player so that they stop walking. Just a few suggestions. ### 5/5 — Really scary *2015-03-27, version 1.3* It isn't absolutely terrifying, but the game has a scary atmosphere and really creeps me out. The graphics are great, the controls a little tricky. It's really a great game, and tricky. I love it, even if I can't play it for a long time without getting scared off. ### 5/5 — 4 star review/5 star game *2014-10-15, version 1.3* This is a great game. The controls could be improved. The controls are space sensitive within the screen. It could be a great start to mobile TF2 though. It is probably 4/5 the perfect (mobile) open world game, just because of the genre. I recommend downloading; it's free. ### 5/5 — Best horror game EVER. *2014-09-23, version 1.3* Next to Five Nights at Freddy's, this has to be the most scary and original horror mobile game ever released on the App Store. Just fifteen seconds into walking through the labyrinth, and there's already things freaking the crap out of me. Great job, developers of this game. ### 5/5 — BEST IOS HORROR GAME *2014-06-29, version 1.3* This is one of the very few iOS horror games out there that are original and scary but this one is both. The atmosphere is great and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I also like how the monster isn't chasing you and you just stumble upon it. -------------------------------- One thing I would fix is the slow look mechanic and I die because of it. Also I would add MULTIPLAYER all horror games are better with coop or vs it's just the idea that people are getting scared with you that makes it so much better. Other than the slow look mechanic it's one of the scariest iOS horror games I've played great job guys ### 5/5 — Freaky as $&@%!!! *2014-06-17, version 1.3* I'm still shaking from this game. Freaky as hell. The only problem I have is the bat on suckerspawn doesn't work for me. Other than that, cool game. Especially if you like scary things. That's the main reason I got the game, I loooooooove scary things ### 5/5 — Scary *2014-03-21, version 1.3* This game is scary as s#%€!!! This game literally made me scream and my grandparents had no idea what I was screaming about. The only problem with this game is on sucker spawn mode, where you have a bat, if you find something like a sword, which I found, you cannot pick it up and I think it would be a whole lot better if you could pick up objects. Otherwise, great game and super scary. ### 4/5 — Totally scary! *2014-03-08, version 1.3* I would really recommend this game if you wanna be freaked out. The only reason I put four stars, is because I wish that you could record yourself playing instead of after your done playing. I know that I can record playing the game, but I want to record myself. You know, to get a reaction? It's better to record yourself and get a reaction, instead of faking how scared you are when you are done. Other than that, AMAZING app. :) ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2014-03-04, version 1.3* This game is so cool. I absolutely love the video camera effect it is so awesome!!! The monster is also very scary! You guys should also add a night vision effect...like outlast or something so when your flashlight runs out! It would be really cool but great job guys, love this game! ### 5/5 — Great *2014-02-16, version 1.3* A must download for the App Store. This game is absolutely gorgeous. It's lighting, the graphics, it's amazing. The sounds are terrifying, creating a chilling gameplay for the player. In this game the monster doesn't follow you around like Slender. You both are simply roaming around the maze an happen to stumble upon each other. That is the reason this game deserves a 5/5. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Deleted right away - shameful ad use. *2013-06-16, version 1.2* I wish I could give less than one star. I get it, you spent 100 dollars or so making a game, you need to recover your losses. So the obvious solution is to add in game advertisements so you make money whether people buy it or not. But this game literally forces you to click on the ads but putting the directly OVER the controls. It's hard to not accidentally click an ad when you get 1/4 inch space to use the controls above the ads. Anyways, I only lost a couple minutes of my time, only wrote a review because of how shameful they are using the ads. That being said, the game actually looks like fun. Too bad you can't even try it before you buy it (which would be fine if they didn't pass it off as a try before you buy) ### 2/5 — Update please? *2022-08-09, version 1.4.2* I’m trying to play it on my 7th generation iPad but it won’t work :( ### 3/5 — Bad Controls *2014-07-11, version 1.3* I want to believe that this is a good, thrilling horror game, but the controls ruin the game experience for me. I wish you guys could do something about it for everyone because i die too fast and get lost too easily from the bad controls. Otherwise, i think its a good game. ### 3/5 — Pain *2014-02-17, version 1.3* My brother got me to play this game and after about 2 minutes, I'm calm but when my brother (who's sitting next to me) grabs me on the shoulder. I instantly reacted by dropping my iPod and punching him right in the face. Great Game so far, but it keeps on crashing after just a short time, which is why I gave this a 3*. ### 3/5 — Good *2013-06-15, version 1.2* It's good and scary I got jump scared but the ads cover the movement part and its a bit hard to control also there is no way to lose the monster even if you close the door in its face it breaks it down and chases you again till your dead. Again it's good the graphics scary atmosphere the freaky monster and the way the battery life worked just some problems. ### 3/5 — Great idea, poor execution... *2013-06-06, version 1.2* The subject line sums it up. This is a great idea, the mood and overall feeling of suspence and danger waiting for you on every corner is superb. I like the sfx that raises your hair and graphic tricks that keep you on edge. The flash light is your only hope and i love the fact that when it runs out your eyes slowly adjust to darkness but your visibility is very limited and a disturbing noise gets louder. There's also a freakishly looking zombie type monster after you and the sound of his breathing getting closer will definetly speed up you heartbeat. So what's wrong with the game? The controls are terrible! It feels like you're moving a tank. Every move is slow and sluggish. They're unresponsive, and looking around is always a challenge. If the devs will fix the controls it will be a brilliant little game. ### 4/5 — Super good *2017-01-06, version 1.4.2* Things I like are -the fact that there is no music in game. It makes the atmosphere a lot scarier, and makes it easier to hear the monster. -The monsters appearance is scary, and it's a.i. Is really good. -The doors add a challenge, and don't make the make the game frustrating like you'd expect. -The gameplay is unique, scary, intense, and fun. -The sucker spawn mode is fun, and the baby things look really creepy, and good. The things I don't like -The lack of detail in the map. Yeah sure there are holes, chains, and webs scattered around a bit, but a few blood splatters, bodies, and vines would have made it look more alive. I agree that there should be a sequel. ### 4/5 — Could've been better *2015-12-28, version 1.4.2* It's not as scary as I expected, the graphics need improvement and so do the creatures.... They look ugly than horrifying....💩 ### 4/5 — Good game but confusing *2015-04-30, version 1.4.0* I love this game it's terrifying cx But I feel so hopeless and idk what to do. How do I avoid the monster? I feel hopeless because I have no way of fighting or repelling the monster. Also, I have no idea what to do, how do I win? Do I try to find the exit of the maze or what? Anyways, it's a little confusing but I still completely love this game and I'm hooked. Thanks for a great app! It might just need a couple modifications (I.e. A way to resist the monster, a more defined objective) Thanks again! ### 4/5 — Wow! *2014-08-06, version 1.3* This game is pulled off extremely well. The sound effects are absolutely amazing, and the atmosphere is awesome. Also, the chases are totally organic, and are very scary. Only reason for a four star is a lack of originality. However, if you just want to be scared, I totally recommend this. It scared the heck out of me! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still awesome, glad it work on this iOS. *2020-11-26, version 1.4.2* They should make a sequel. I’d buy it. Kind of wish the maze was creepier and less drab to look at. Lava and blood spatter would be cool. Monster AI is decent but dated. Hide in an alcove and turn the flashlight off. Video camera feature is cool but should have night vision built in. Definitely an instant classic. ### 5/5 — Great visuals. Great game. *2019-12-02, version 1.4.2* Literally played this in high school about 4-5 years ago. It’s a great game and I just spent like 20 minutes trying to find it again after all this time. ### 5/5 — Memories *2018-12-04, version 1.4.2* I’ve played this 5 years ago and wow it was scary for me honestly It’s pretty good ### 5/5 — I have no idea why I am writing a review for a game that I haven't even played yet *2018-05-11, version 1.4.2* RIP ### 5/5 — Wowie *2017-10-12, version 1.4.2* Very good very scary suggestions: new monster/ monsters, new maze that’s it everything else is perfect ### 5/5 — please make more levels *2017-08-20, version 1.4.2* This was worth buying! loved the hide and seek, kill and run idea to survive. This was trilling, horror, and suspense every minute. ### 5/5 — Best horror game ever *2017-08-02, version 1.4.2* I totally recamend this game to youtubers and people who don't get scared. This is an incredibley realistic paranormal game with disturbing biblical creatures ### 5/5 — All that good but... *2017-05-15, version 1.4.2* Can u please make a sequel or a second part of this game. Love this game scary and adventurous. Great game ### 5/5 — Good but needs more monsters *2017-03-01, version 1.4.2* I love the game but I just wish there were more monsters and jump scares and also when your about to find a rare monster a creepy music box starts to play and before it pops out the music stood and it becomes silent but some times the music only plays when you are near the monster. But then it pops out ### 5/5 — Real good *2016-03-27, version 1.4.2* Real good game scary --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
