Ten Bells

Just started and I have had goose bumps twice already. 10/10.

[b] 10 von 10 Pints [/b] [i]Dem englischen Wetter gerecht tobt draußen ein Sturm. Regen peitscht über das Pflaster, wässrige Tränen perlen an den Scheiben. Donner zerreißt die Luft, ein unheilvoller Glockenschlag hallt nach. Die Dielen knarzen, die Tür fällt ins Schloss. Und einen Herzschlag später stehst du im Pub. In der Luft liegt vertrauter Staub, der Geruch von Bier hängt schwer im Raum. Warm. Einladend. Und doch … trügt der Schein.[/i] Ten Bells schafft eine schaurige, zugleich wohlige Atmosphäre. Doch statt eines ruhigen Pints an einem verregneten Tag findest du dich in einer Schleife aus Anomalien wieder. Das Ziel ist klar. Der Weg unsicher. [i]Lag der Untersetzer schon die ganze Zeit unter dem Tisch? Das Bild an der Wand – hing es eben noch schief? [/i] Mit jedem Betreten wächst die Skepsis. Das Spiel zwingt dich, zu beobachten, zu hinterfragen – und dir selbst zu misstrauen. Spukmomente flackern auf, Details verrutschen, die Realität kippt. Stück für Stück legt sich die Geschichte frei, verborgen hinter den vertrauten Wänden dieses Pubs. Und gerade, wenn du glaubst, Fortschritt zu machen, beginnt die Schleife erneut. [i] To whom the bell tolls. [/i] Cheers

[h1]鬼打墙模拟器[/h1] 《Ten Bells》是一款小品级的恐怖游戏。玩家会在一个很小的酒吧里无限循环寻找异象。我把这些异象分为找茬异象和恐怖异象，找茬异象顾名思义就是会在某些物件上出现与原来不同的东西，比如画作变色，内外装饰互换，NPC不在原始位置等等，这些异象大多不太明显需要考验玩家的观察力和记忆力。而恐怖异象则非常明显，比如突然出现的巨大怪物，或者被鬼魂追逐，这些需要走位和逃避的异象考验的就是玩家的反应力。游戏的目的就是每成功经历一次循环后会多一个铃铛，攒齐10个铃铛就能过关。但注意只要失败1次之前所有铃铛都会消失必须重新开始。所以需要玩家有一定的耐心，否则最好还是别碰本作。此外游戏画面精美还讲了一个犯罪小故事，最后结局还有反转，在消磨时间通关同时收集下所有异象还是比较有成就感的。总体来说一般推荐吧，请在打折时入手。

I really don't get all the positive reviews on this one. It's really boring, expected and not scary at all.

This game sets a new high bar for anomaly games. I would highly recommend to anyone that is a fan of anomaly games and horror to pick this up immediately. Pros: Perfect blend of creepy overt, creepy subtle, and just plain subtle anomalies. Spaced out over two game modes of the base game, and the base game with more difficult spots 'nightmare mode'. A captivating little story to tie in the anomalies and oddness of the Ten Bells pub. Wonderful tense atmosphere that has yet to feel stale after hours of gameplay. A great tracker of the ones you've spotted with names, once you've completed the game once. Cons/Nitpicks: There are a non-insignificant number of anomalies that are obvious, and triggered before leaving the pub at the end of the hallway. Which scary yes, but it changed the way I played the game. Rushing to the end first to then backtrack, getting the obvious ones out of the way if they were there. Several achievements are tied to pushing your face up to something scary. Several anomalies kill you and restart your progress when you push your face up against them.

8.5/10 really solid horror anomalie hunt game w really good scares that made me jump like crazy at points. Best one of the genre id say

This game was great! Definitely a banger for the price. It took me 4 (stream) hours to 100% the anomalies on normal (not the achievements). Stream was VERY interactive with this one. The atmosphere was great. The design was pretty beautiful (multiple viewers agreed)! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that when you got to "beat" the 1st playthrough that it gave [spoiler] you a list on the wall to see how many anomalies you had left and crossed them off as you went, as well as not forcing you to play through the whole story multiple times - progress saving is HUGE. [/spoiler] It also prioritizes the anomalies you have not gotten, so it kept it fresh. Other anomaly games I've played repeat the ones you have already done and it gets stale QUICK. This game did not do that. This made me WANT to keep going. My brain was fried probably at hour 2.5, but having that [spoiler] list on the wall [/spoiler] and knowing that I wasn't going to get 50 duplicates really pushed me to keep going to see it all completed. I did not have to use any walk throughs or guides. I will say that some are definitely harder than others but a lot are pretty simple to spot. For the price -- get it. There is absolutely no reason not to. The story was pretty good too. I loved [spoiler] the little trophy shelves.[/spoiler] If you are a streamer with an interactive community, they will love this! (if you are in the spooky genre). I will say this game has LOUD moments and you will get jumpscared by them. But I guess if you don't want that then maybe you shouldn't be shopping in the spooky section LOL.
