Layers of Fear: Masterpiece Edition

First off this game is gorgeous. Second, this game has very cool jumpscares. The story is even better, telling the story of a broken family and the effects that mental illness has on a genius. The game as you go forward grows darker and darker and the world around you starts to take a nightmarish look. The game will have questioning your existence and world in this game. Now this game has some problems like the process of getting another ending and how the game gets to stop being scary after awile. But mark my words this game is incredible and if you really enjoy it check out the Inheritance DLC that takes you into a different perspective and art style.

This is for all that read these things. This is nothing more than and extened ending to the original. Nothing more, but it does not have to be more. Kind of like a director`s cut of a movie. It is merely an extention of the game from a different point of view. It may not be as long nor as good as its predasessor, but it gives the story more of a define and solid feel to it. Enjoy it for what it is. And if the family has not seen the original, take them through the journey. Make it a movie night. Add this to that night. That is how you will get the most enjoyment out of this.

What an awesome way to get more of this family's story. Exploring and recalling memories from the daughter's pov was an interesting experience! My only complaint... it's too short. I wanted to keep going and going! It does have more than one ending though. I love this developer and hope to see more from them. Worth getting if you enjoyed the main game and want a different perspective related to the story. There are achievements and the price for this DLC is fantastic for what you get. New music is really creeptacular too! Overall, I really loved playing this addon. :-)

The gameplay for this title is extremely slow paced, yet it shows what insanity would look like if you could actually see it. I enjoyed the ending because it was equally satisfying as it was disturbing. It could've used more puzzles though, just to keep it a bit more interesting. By the end I was almost wanting it to be over because of anticipation while at the same time because of a lack of action or required thinking. Overall it's a good game but might not be the best choice for everyone. Personally I enjoyed it.

This game has one of the best dark/scary tones ever for a psychological horror. The game does great messing with your head. Along with the presence of horror, you need a great soundtrack... This game delivers, giving a fantastic dark soundtrack that sometimes leaves you in the main menu listening or in game enjoying it all. They made some horrifically amazing paintings that will raise your eyebrow and make you think "that's weird and disgusting". The story is told great from the pov of the dad/husband. I would have to say my favorite thing was seeing how his insanity progressed and how his perspective of the house gets into a worsened state. My word of advice to all that play is... You NEED to finish the game and get all 3 endings, (worth it) there is a variety of choices in where to go so have fun. Also make sure you collect all memory items, rat drawings, and letters/art. Enjoy this horror game because there aren't many as good or better than this. Definitely one to remember! -Joey U
