    First, I'm not a fan of multiplayer games because I have no friends, and active lobbies are nearly non-existent. Second, because I have no friends, it's unplayable outside of the tutorial, as it lacks any bots and other things that make up the single-player mode of an MP-focused game. Third, the tutorial gives rough impressions. I'm sure the dialogues are voiced by AI TTS, judging by the flat intonation. Not to …

    The game is good. I enjoy it. But online is dead. No one plays it, which is a shame because it's why I bought it

    Dead by Daylight + Among Us + Digital Happiness' local horror folklore specialty. That's how I can say about the game in general. Clearing objectives together, but keep track and suspicious of your team because one of them must be the traitor (or probably you are!). I enjoyed my time playing the game for several runs with my friends. For now, the game still needs improvement on the UX part that is related to the UI. …

    This game takes the unique style of Indonesian Horror reminiscent of their previous titles and used it to craft a unique and challenging, multiplayer experience. You take on the role of a rag-tag bunch of paranormal investigators trying to contain cursed artifacts while trying to survive sabotage by one of the other players. It's a lot of fun meeting the members of the community and seeing all of the very stylish …

    DreadHaunt takes the familiar ingredients of cooperative horror and gives them a distinctive identity through its emphasis on paranoia and supernatural deception. Developed by Digital Happiness and published by Digital Happiness, Nuon Games, Agate, and Dark Product, the game serves as an expansion of the studio's horror portfolio, drawing from the mythology and atmosphere that helped establish the DreadOut universe. …

    The weakest game from this publisher. At first devs released it as multiplayer only - nobody played it. Then devs added 1-2 hour single player campaign so the game could be worth for at least something. Later they added supporter pack which gives max level of the battle pass knowing that's it is impossible to find any match. I am gonna forget this flop and wait for their next title which looks more promising - Graveless.

    This game has a lot of potential, i really enjoy it and it was so fun. This is brand new, the whole game is different. not like Dead By Daylight, Phasmophobia, Ghost Exile, Pacify or others. This is completely different. New review : the lobby is always empty and its really hard to find another players, if you want to play with people, you have to find your own playmates and make an appointment with them to play together from Discord or else. If you create a lobby and wait for random people to…

    (It wasn't a good idea) I don't think anyone asked for this, I don't know if they did this because of how Dread Out 2 ended but this feels like they didn't understand their player base. The game is probably good but I can't try it as the game has no players, this was the same for the beta. The concept is cool I guess but this felt like it should of been a single player game with this PVP as a side mode or added this game as a game mode to Dread Out 2. (Thoughts on the franchise) The devs look…

    Seeing as the playerbase is non-existent, I bought this game for the the solo & co-op mode. But I couldn't find anything that explained how it worked so... Not in the tutorial, not in the how to play segment... you get a little bit of info upon starting a lobby but it doesn't explain anything about the gameplay. So yeah, can't recommend it unfortunately.

    🔍 With all respect to the devs: you have some absolutely terrifying ghosts ideas, but you tried to jump aboard a train that was already falling apart. Given this approach, you really should have designed this as a PvE co-op experience from the start. The core concept is here, but nobody is playing it. DbD and its clones (asymmetrical) are popular, but they’re not good (simply because the entire genre is built around a single, fundamentally flawed title). Something like L4D2 ones (co-op) are…

    I do see some clear potential in DreadHaunt, and once you get the hang of the mechanics, it can be fun to play with friends. At the moment, it’s very reasonably priced, which is always a plus, and my prior positive experiences with Digital Happiness’ creative output is making me cautiously optimistic about the overall future of the game. But at the same time, the game is currently in a very early stage (and is advertised as such, so fair enough on that front) and is going to need a lot more…

    Game has potential, lack of players really limits what you can do in the game but in the solo/ coop game mode we are having a blast. Hopefully this game takes off soon

    This game has tons of potential. Even as it is right now, it's a fun little goofy time to spend with friends. It's also legitimately scary (silly & scary is a rare & perfect combination). I look forward to seeing what the devs add to this. Hopefully more people give it a shot so that they're encouraged to keep adding to it!

    Multiplayer is kinda ok, if you have friends at least 1. Single Player is absolutely pain in the ass, the story is cool, the monster design was terrifying but not having objective or at least a clue to what to do is annoyingly painful, until I decide to watch other people walkthrough. Next time just put the objective on the left top corner just like other game please.

    I like the design of the characters, ESPECIALLY the ghosts! As an Indonesian, the ghosts' design is hella cool and creepy at the same time. They have several modes so you can choose whichever mode you prefer to play with your friends. One of the modes that I really like is the ghost hunting mode. Also, the lobby UI is easy to understand and unique. Unfortunately, my friends and I disconnected a few times and it occurred quite often. The tutorial menu is also slightly confusing for us (it's…
