Before I dive into Horror Story: Hallowseed; I need too correct a mistake I made in the video. In it’s beginning, I criticize the VR feature of the early access game because it doesn’t functional very well. However, the developer has contacted me to inform me that the game is not built for VR. I apologize for that, I thought the game was being built for VR because my Oculus can run the game and it kind of works. Again, sorry for the misunderstanding. So please, disregard the VR portion of the review.
On off chance if the developer wants to incorporate a VR function; revisiting that section of the video wouldn’t be a bad idea.
Horror Story: Hallowseed is an upcoming small budget indie horror title being developed by Jeff Winner. It’s diving back into the classic horror tale of dumb teens going places that’s less than ideally for parties. This particular place is called Hallowseed. The haunted town that quickly ensnares the teens with chaos, death, and supernatural beings. Your character wakes up alone, lost and down a couple of friends,. So, to save your friends you must dive into the depths of the town and it’s dark secrets.
Pros
- Atmosphere looks okay
- The cheesy writing can be fun
Cons
- Gameplay is bare bones
- It’s not scary
- The chase monster isn’t frightening
- Some mechanics aren’t implemented yet.
The game is still in early access, so their is time to polish this game. Yet, I can’t recommend the early access version because the gameplay is very bare; making it boring to playthrough. I strongly recommend waiting for a later version or the full game.
