I'll give Euclidean this much: it gets Lovecraft. It understands that the draw of cosmic horror is not the universal fear of cuttlefish, but the existential angst of realizing your own insignificance in the face of infinity. However, in practice, it missteps. Despite the beautiful visuals that nicely reinforce your feeling of smallness, it's hard to feel like the universe is an incomprehensible, impersonal vastness …

Okay, so you're constantly falling in this cool-looking creepy space, but you can't actually see anything because you only get glimpses every few seconds, and then you randomly die to something you couldn't see. Repeat this experience several dozen times and that's basically the game. I wanted to like this -- I love cosmic horror and the atmosphere is great -- but as a game it's repetitive, boring, frustrating, and …

Euclidean is not a game for most people. The whole game is as if the last twenty minutes of 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Call of Cthulhu had a baby, and that baby ate LSD infused shrooms. Therefore this game could be considered a confusingly boring waste of time, or a masterpiece of psychological horror that greatly shows the basis of Lovecraftian Cosmicism; how insignificant humans are in the grand scheme of the …

Euclidean succeeds on the strength of its atmosphere rather than its mechanics. Gameplay consists of basic pathfinding: as you fall in slow motion, select a route; note where you die; take the route again and avoid the death. Had it used the same mechanics and been, say, space-themed -- dodge the asteroids and aliens -- the game would not have been notable. It is the spot-on execution of a Lovecraftian horror theme …

Ever have that nightmare where you’re falling endlessly through a surreal world of geometric shapes, nightmarish sounds and threatening shadows? Well that pretty much describes Euclidean. It’s part game, part art experience that drops the player at a great height then tasks them with avoiding obstacles, geometric shapes and bizarre wobbling lifeforms that reach out of walls. Somewhere deep below is a glowing blue …

Players who liked Euclidean talk about atmospheric and immersive Lovecraftian horror; those who didn't talk about gameplay is repetitive and frustrating. Which matters more to you?

Your tenants may be non-Euclidean, but they still need a place to stay on this plane of reality. 🌃 My review: digitalfantasydiary.com/2025/01/11/a...
positive · AI labelView post →Euclidean is one hard mother-humper of a game. You want to know HOW hard? Well, first of all there's three difficulty levels: Hard, Nightmarish and Impossible. Secondly, it took me about five minutes to even work out how to START the frigging game (hint: look up, rather than around you...you'll get what I mean when you play). Thirdly, I apparently died SEVEN TIMES just on the first level, which is basically only a few minutes long. Yup, it's HARD. But what else is it? Well, it's…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7HA4I-h22E Unfortunately, I had a pretty rough time with this game. To sum it up, while it is certainly atmospheric and interesting, it just doesn’t cut it as a game. I couldn’t finish the game due to a pretty destructive mix of frustration and boredom. I feel like it might only be a really worthwhile experience with VR, because the atmosphere is definitely the best part of the game. That said, it is extremely cheap, which should be considered when looking at…

Then I became a roguelike developer too. HyperRogue is probably the biggest** non-Euclidean game!

Obviously some (mild) spoilers on my end, but I'd appreciate no spoilers in the discussion below. I went into this mostly blind. I knew it was a horror novel, experimental; that it had inspired several cool "non-Euclidean" video games, and I knew it was about a house that's "bigger on the inside". I was also prepped for…

neutral · AI labelView post →[TL;DR: An OK experience with good ideas, which is limited in gameplay, and is unfortunately crippled without a VR headset.] Unless you have a VR headset of your own (and most people don't) I would not get this. This game really does seem like it would work best with the VR headset and was designed with it at it's center. But beyond that, there is very little to gameplay (more on that in paragraph three). So, it does look quite nice, and I like the design of the monsters and the overall…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Start from the top, get to the bottom. Faller titles have never quite enjoyed the success of their horizontal runner brethren but are happy to instil just as much panic in the player. Euclidean isn't so much about the frantic hammering of keys as it is the dread-filled holding of them; the action moves at a crawl, the enemies lurch rather than sprint, the anticipation of collision made all the more tense as you barely squeeze past danger during your descent into a Lovecraftian oblivion. There's…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very atmospheric; I found some of the levels to be quite difficult, but once you understand how the different monster types work, it's really a fun challange. The gameplay is very dark and there are flashes of light, where you get a couple seconds to see where you are and where you should be heading, it's very tense and if you aren't paying close attention it's brutal. Monsters are very fast and the player moves very slow, so you have to predict where to go based on the routes they fly in, you…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played this on my Vive and I think the VR experience adds so much to the atmosphere that you can't get playing on a monitor. The sense of being completely inside this bizarre world as you float downward is oddly disturbing and relaxing at the same time. I also wonder if being able to look around in a more realistic fashion helps your survival. During most of the game you are looking downward (I recommend sitting on the floor), but some parts almost require you to see monsters coming at you from…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A game that manages to be both relaxing and tense in a surreal setting. Plan your descent with just flashes of light to guide you. Enemies have dim trails showing their path but it's still easy to be caught off guard, often the only warning before death is the rapid beating of your characters heart. The phase ability can be a life saver, feels great when you are descending and not aware of any enemies near by but then you realize your heart is beating louder so you slam phase just in time :)

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First of all, I am a huge H.P. Lovecraft fan. I was excited about this game because it looked good and I had read reviews which said it was "Lovecraftian levels of scary." But when I started playing it, it didn't take me long to realize that this game wasn't scary whatsoever. All it is is a bunch of random shapes fly around as you fall through them. There is a narrator who recites vaguely Lovecraftian themes. And you die and you die over and over again because you have little to no control over…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well, that was... interesting, to say the least. Imagine a walking simulator only you're not walking, you're sinking constantly into abstract depths of cyclopean eldritch architecture populated by an amass of deadly geometetric creatures who kill you if you touch them. It's great to see game developers tackle the grandaddy that is the Cosmic Horror genre. It's short, yeah, but a good length if you're attempting a permadeath run. It actually took me longer to download the game then finish…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TLDR: If you enjoy Lovecraft's actual works, of humanity being made to feel tiny, unimportant, and wholly out of your depth, then I'd suggest picking this up. Some people might argue that the length of a game is all that matters. Hell, I've seen it dozens of times that any game that is even fairly short isn't worth so much as a second glance. It's a silly notion, though perhaps I can at least understand where it comes from when it comes to games that you pay twenty dollars, thirty dollars,…

neutral · AI labelView post →Great value for the spend. You will want to return to this game soon after you complete it. For a long time Lovecraft fan this reminds me of the Brian Yuzna film "From Beyond" where there were tantalising glimpses of the weird alieness you have stumbled into. Best hint use the "E" key (phase) it is your best friend and use this sparingly. Most of all the strange vistas, mood and sound really envelope you. Looking forward to more levels if possible. Well done to all the team that produced…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yup, it's really weird. It's not scary but is very unsettling. Thinking of your own death, etc, for 30 minutes. A few minor issues with the Rift. Looking down the whole time is neck breaking. I'd rather sit back in a chair and be "pulled" into oblivion rather than sink downward. Maybe a way to reorient yourself would be helpful.

But, weighing in at around an hour and only $4, I'm okay with that and don't feel like it was time or money wasted. Still, this certainly isn't a game for everyone. The atmosphere and narration are great, but the gameplay was just... bland and seemingly random for my taste.

But those who might be worthy of playing it, are to experience all the horror one man can perceive and beyond. In all seriousness, this game feels rather like an experiment, a work of art with some mixed in gameplay elements. Is that a bad thing? Certainly not.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If the phrase "Lovecraftian Geometric Horror" doesnt immediately make you roll your eyes, then youll probably like Euclidean. It really nails both of the important aspects that it needed to get right; powerlessness and alienness. My only real complaint is that the player character has a fairly normal scream when he dies. The scream sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of the sound design which is fairly good, especially since when you look down you are clearly a mess of nerve…

Jokes aside, it's just not a good walking simulator. The main reason I'm giving it a thumbs down, however, is because the VR support for the game is broken. If you're like me and had an interest in the game because it had VR support, you'll be disappointed to know that it is a miserable experience. The frame rate is in the single digits during gameplay, despite having a very high-end…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was exactly what I wanted from a Lovecraftian inspired game. Nothing "scary" in the modern sense of the word (as much as the word has been brought down by the jumpscare games recently), but the sound design, the unidentifiable monsters made of abstract shapes, the fear yet intrigue of the unknown as you fall helplessly attempting to prolong your life for just a moment longer, everything comes together to give you a general uneasy feeling, which is exactly the feeling I love feeling when…

Yes its short and yes there is not much gameplay but its a strange one. I can almost see Lovecraft writing a story about a man falling into nothing that is everything. A story about a man stumbling uppon things that or unknoable before time or a human understanding of time. For sure not for everyone. I found the visuals somewhat like how Lovecraft described R'lyeh. Everything is…

It's not exactly a horror game. It's not exactly a game at all. If I were a pretentious hipster type I'd call it an "experience".
