Concealment is a short first-person exploration game where you search an abandoned village for your missing brother while uncovering its dark secrets. You'll navigate an atmospheric environment solving puzzles and evading a creature that hunts you, though the monster's predictable behavior and lack of checkpoints undermine some of the horror tension. Best suited for players seeking a brief, story-driven scare rather than a polished, mechanics-heavy experience.

This game was pretty good. It was only $3 dollars and gave a pretty good scare with the reveal of the monster. Overall the story and atmosphere was not bad as well. The only downsize was the monster you are running from is pretty loud and can't really sneak up on you so once you figure that out and how it moves and gets around you kinda lose a lot of horror elements of it. If you want to watch my play through you can check out the link below.

Major downside is no checkpoints? If the game crashes halfway through you have to start over. Which is what happened to me when i died. Otherwise good gameplay and story.

Yet another shameless russian indie dev trying to sell a short demo as a full game. You can probably beat it in 30 minutes or so...except for the fact that its more full of bugs than an old abandoned shed. Right when you launch it, it launches in the wrong resolution (it was 3840x2160 iirc) and in Russian! If you somehow managed to blindly fix this. You can boot the game and wait for along time as it struggles to load even on my SSD.

Interacting with items will sometimes send you or the item flying across the screen for no reason. Sometimes you will pick up a story item but the game will skip the text that tells you what the item is/does and there is no way to check inventory. The developer did not bother creating a save system, whether out of laziness or pure incompetence, granted the game is short, but if the game crashes at any point (and trust me it will), the game bugs out making progress impossible (and it will) or the one enemy you encounter somehow catches up to you... you have to start all the way back at the beginning. There is random sheets of paper laying around which you can sometimes pick up, if the game decides it will let you, but when you press E to show the text, the font is so small (and lots of them are just huge paragraphs), you are better off just looking at the sheet. Walking for a bit in any direction will make you hit an invisible wall, rather than being clever and hiding the empty void that is left where the dev stopped working on the map. The puzzles are brain dead, you are just going round and round the same cabins. until you find the items you need.

I somehow managed to create the bomb needed to bomb the area to beat the game against all odds, made my way to the place... activated it... and... the bomb went flying to the opposite end, it exploded and crashed my game.

♥♥♥♥ this game, and shame on the developer for even daring to sell this as a full game, it should be a free demo at most.

Sadly the flood of trash being sold like this from indie russian developers looks like it has no intention of stopping... all I can do is write a review, and hope it will save at least one person some time, money, and sanity.
