Rabbit Hole

3.5.2022 The idea of the game and graphics are awesome but need to polish/add some BASIC AND VERY IMPORTANT THINGS. It must have the posibility to manually save the game and to have many save sloths. This game DOESN´T HAVE THAT and its very frustrating to begin again when you die, even if you begin from a checkpoint. Also the puzzle of the radio is a little annoying and you don´t want to do it again after you suddently get killed by the mother of the gasoline station employee. Also you have to have the posibility to change your weapons FAST as you do in common fps (Doom 2, Quake, etc). The reaction of the character is very slow in comparison of how fast and deadly the zombies are when they see you. For that, my review stay negative. But I hope the developer will add/correct the defects I have found 20.5.2022 I have played this game recently thinking that maybe is not so bad, but I realize this game is worse than I thought before. As I said before, zombies are very fast and deadly and here is what I realized now: You have very few ammo, knife is only usefull when attacking zombies from behind, so practically YOU DON´T HAVE MELEE WEAPONS!! You are out of ammo very fast!! So if you are bein attacked and you lack of ammo YOU ARE 100% DEFENSELESS Health items are only one by the mother of the gas station employee and other very far away (I know that because I saw a gameplay on youtube, otherwise I would have thought there is only one). So, considering that zombies are fast and powerfull, chances to regenerate your health periodically are 0. Aiming while a zombie or group of zombies are chasing you is very frustrating and if you don´t do it exactly, you´re inmediately dead. Also pistol not always aim correctly. At least you could have a good melee weapon, but no. I don´t care if this is an indie project or not. I care about how playable a game is. Try to think and imagine yourself as a gamer customer. Of course I have uninstalled this game and I doubt whether to play it again.

I have to tip my hat to the 2 developers behind this game. They did an outstanding job. Rabbit hole is a very well made indie game which I had a great time playing because it perfectly balances out the gunplay, puzzles and exploration in a satisfying and fun way. There's some Resident Evil, a little Silent Hill and also a hint of Evil Dead. Technically the game runs very well and I encountered no issues during my playthrough, which is quite surprising for an indie game. This underlines the passion the devs put into their work. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good horror-shooter experience.

I was excited to see this game. It EXCEEDED my expectations and blew me away that this was only made by 2 people! WOW. You play as Shaun (though at one part they misspell his name name to Sean) who is travelling to see his daughter & ex wife when he runs out of gas. Coming into town things aren't quite what they seem and he's roped into a tale of zombies, cult activity, occult mysticism, and children sacrifice. This game plays a 3rd person shooter. There's a few obvious flaws with the game and a few minor English translation bugs, but the game is GREAT. What an awesome gem find. Absolutely worth buying and playing. The difficulty level is a bit high in some parts, but stick with it, it's a LOT of fun! PROS: * Great voice acting -> the commentary by the MC reminds me of Evil Dead & Ash * Amazing atmosphere * Good SFX * Minimal jump scares, but the spooks are good * Fun boss battles, but the difficulty/challenge level is high * Zombies can be damaged by body part (leg/arm/head) -> so head shots count! * Simplistic story that's easy to follow * Simple yet good puzzles that apply to the story * Autosaves after puzzles or events * Controller support (I used an 8bit Pro Duo controller) CONS: * The health bar for Shaun should be white and go red as he gets hurt -> but this is oddly reversed (RED IS GOOD,, WHITE IS BAD) * No health bars for boss enemies * Needs more health items in the game * Your hands are useless & the knife is only used for stealth kills * No melee combat option (if you run out of bullets, you're screwed) * Controller could use an auto-aim functionality or aim-assist option (not really necessary for M&K) * Some of the Controller key layout seems not intuitive -> would be nice if you could remap keys * No quick use button for health item * No manual save option https://www.seravium.com https://twitch.tv/seravium
