The Haunting of Joni Evers

es hat mich gefesselt und ist auch ein sehr Interessantes Spiel, ich kann es nur jeden empfehlen der auf dieser Art von Games steht.

As someone who is a sucker for a good story-driven game, The Haunting of Joni Evers pulled me right in! I am a bit of a scaredy cat, so I work my way through the game pretty slowly, but the game itself, the voice acting, and the story are great!

Juego muy interesante de terror, 100% recomendado.

A great experience exploring an interesting home with lot's of great details and backstory, tied together with a very relatable emotional story. Fantastic voice acting, music, and great vibes all around. Definitely recommend!

I wanted to like this game. I very much loved the atmosphere and the good graphics. Also, the narration is great and very helpful. I love games like these! But then it completely turned away from this great storytelling becoming a game where you have to find things and place them time and time again. Also, the protagonist talks way too much here without revealing a lot of the story wasting so much time. Then it finally failed me. I had to place a relic, took it and didn't know what to do - I saw that I could put it into a rack and there it went and stuck forever. Then I went further until I came into a room (the red vestige) and the doors was sealed from the inside and I should place the relic - which I had just lost in a place I couldn't access anymore and was stuck. Then you think: simply restore the last save point, but the game saves whenever it wants automatically and there is only one save slot and no menu - you can only "continue" from the main screen - this meant I'd have to replay the whole game because of this nasty bug - so I gave up. I really wanted to like the game, but after the main exploration at the beginning it became a very long find/place/swap game with the protagonist talking way too much with too few infos.

I loved exploring this story and house. You can play the game through faster but I took the slower route. So many things to explore and I have a feeling a lot of clues were left to what a I hope is more to come for the Cunningham saga. Music was wonderful companion to the play and can't say enough about the voice of Joni. Struggled a little bit with the ritual restorations but stuck with it and it payed off. Left me wanting to know more especially about Grandma Noreen and the "worlds". Recommend you give this debut game from Causeway Studios a try and hope they have many more.
