This is a bad horror game, not scary, not eerie but a key hunting simulator and short like a demo!! Pros:- Good graphics(store-bought) -(that's all!) Cons: Too short even for 3 bucks a weak story like 3rd class American movies time-wasting pointless puzzles because the game doesn't give you clues 30 minutes of gameplay( i finished 2 times to check if i miss somethings. 1 or 2 jumpscares but really bad ones and rest …

In general, Tonguc Bodur develops walkim sims with beautiful scenery and relaxing music. Education, perhaps, is an experimental game where he decided to take a completely new direction. Instead of the lush outdoors we find ourselves in the dark, foreboding indoors. Also, story-wise the game is more explicit in the sense that you immediately understand that bullying is in the focal point. As opposed to his previous …

This is a really creepy horror walking simulator. Your character did terrible things in his youth and destroyed multiple lives, but it is as if he does not understand the severity of his actions. You need to find notes, solve puzzle and collect cameras and batteries to get to the end of the game. I used my flashlight sparingly, as you can see in most areas even though the game is really dark. Visually the areas are …

Now, I have played a fair amount of Tonguc' games to know his art of games in general. His attribute is 'Walking Simulators', just as this game is one as well. You shouldn't be playing this game expecting a huge horror game à la Resident Evil series. All his games include walking along the story and solving puzzles, with some little specials.

The last few have had interesting elements of shooting enemies, evading death traps, parking vehicles, etc. Having said this, Education is not my favorite. Not a bad game, but not really what I was hoping for. It is short, very light on story, and incredibly dark (as in lack of lighting). I spent a lot of time managing flashlight…

It’s been a while since I’ve played one of Tonguc’s games, but I’ve acquired a few between then and now, so no better time than the present to catch up on these titles. Education is definitely the most horror oriented of Tonguc’s games that I’ve played, which was a nice change of pace. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3146181645 It’s still a walking simulator with a couple puzzles and some minor exploration, but it’s also got a dark…

positive · AI labelView post →Honestly this game had some promise but that fell flat on it's face about 10 minutes in when you had to resurrect a corpse to break a few planks of wood which were about 2 inches wide. Education is also incredibly short, do yourself a favour and skip the lesson. Check out my first impressions of Education here: https://youtu.be/pkvFUXOa3R8

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Education This developer usually keeps it at nature kinda walking simulators with a story attached. So when this turned out to be a lil bit of a horror feel, i was surprised. Now i just need to be honest, no it wasn't scary, i did love how he tried tho! I do say, keep it up and try some more! Cause who knows, someday you do make a terrifying horror game. And i'll be there to try it either way. Still a fun short game to waste a lil of your time on.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very Short, little Content. Worth the 89p , i paid for it. If your in the mood to wonder around a old haunted school for a hour, would recommend.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I probably wouldn't reccomend this game on the basis of how glitchy it is. HOWEVER it DOES have a vaguely coherant story which is more than most horror games I play! That's not to say it's a good one. It makes it seem so complicated when really it boils down to a pretty simple story thats easy to take the piss outta. Glitch wise it took about 10 mins for me to get stuck in the floor LMFAO. The ghost DId make me jump which was exciting but the manic flailing that followed literally sent me…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game doesn't make much sense. You run around collecting keys mostly in a school while finding hidden cameras, batteries that are useless since the game is so linear, and that items and notes are highlighted, you don't really need the flashlight. The "scare" moment is goofy and then it ends. Tada!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good Game with a Great Story about what happened on the school and about a certain student. Graphic wise looks great and the gameplay its pretty good. The only issue its that the game is very small(beat it in 35 min). Wished that the game was a little bit longer since the story was great.

neutral · AI labelView post →Developed by Tonguç Bodur, Education is a short horror game set in a school. Graphicly competent, especially due to the use of assets, the game sees you walking around an abandoned school, trying to figure out your past errors and come to terms with it. With a simple plot and a even more simpler gameplay, the game is barely serviceable in what it sets out to do. Price wise is fairly cheap, even without a discount, but, for the same amount, there's better games to try out. Try it if you have…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nope. I'm not sure why you even have a flashlight since it burns out right away. Then you spend the rest of the game wandering around in the dark, seeing nothing. This might have been a pass but the hunt-for-batteries element really turned me off. Look Even my dead cell phone has more juice in it than these crappy batteries. So literally, 90% of this game is spent either hunting for batteries, or in pitch darkness. Why the hell did I pay for pitch darkness? I can get that for free in my…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not the best game I have played made by this dev. As a walking sim, the story should be really important and I kinda missed the story on this one... For a one hour game there simply was not enough explanation. Did like the overal graphics and atmosphere, but we all know that alone does not make a good game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Quite nice but very short horror game. It's also very different to the other games from Tonguç Bodur which I really liked. A bit more variation you know.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wish there was a "neutral" rating on Steam... Cuz I'm not really sure what to think of this game or if it's worth recommending. It's short (15-45 mins), so kinda worth its $2 price tag? If you like walking sims or horror it's a decent filler experience. But, that's the thing, I'm not really sure what the experience out of this game was? Besides playing as a scumbag who has a scumbag dad who explores a haunted school for a little bit? I mean... ****SPOILER**** dude makes his…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was different from the other games I've played from this developer. Instead of the usual beautiful landscapes, you get a dilapidated old school building. The environment was creepy, but the repeating sound effect was so frequent that I just stopped paying any attention to it. I think I found everything there was to find, and the story was OK, maybe even a bit unexpected as you usually get the opposite point of view to a story like this. I didn't really like the ending as I had to check the…

It's a really easy walking sim where you walk through an old abandoned school and learn the story of your characters life at the school. It's an interesting story a bit weird but interesting, the only problem with it was a few things that happened at the end that were ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ weird. The horror aspect of the game is alright, spooky atmosphere, weird noises and a (at first) terrifying monster. I think the game is worth getting especially at it's…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I thoroughly enjoyed this game, and for less than £2 what more do you want? I see some other reviews saying its not scary at all, but it's more of an atmospheric game. Definitely worth a buy, after all its only a £2 game.
