Forsake: Urban horror | By Wholf Forsake is a 1 to 4-player co-op online psychological horror game where each player is a member of an urban explorer group. Enter places that are off-limits and full of paranormal activity to discover their darkest secrets, while risking your life. I and a friend bought it for 4 euros and the day after it went to 2,79 euros. Luckily we didn't play for over 2 hours due to the refund …

This game is actually so much fun! The only downside is- you need friends, as it is hard to find a lobby within the game. But, it's playable even by yourself. You can gain money and XP just by grabbing some items and leaving in the safe zone to help level up, if you wanted. 10/10 game from me. Buy it, add me, and let's play!

I've been following the progress of this game for a while now. It's still in very much early access and isn't nearly finished. New things are added frequently, and bugs are fixed as fast as you report them. The dev team is really active and listens to what you have to say. The gameplay is pretty simple; go around the map looking for stuff while avoiding the monster lurking around. This game is definitely NOT a …

This game is criminally underplayed. it's kind of a co-op dead by daylight with an npc killer. it's not crazy difficult even on the harder settings, but it till takes some work and communication. Anyone that finds the gameplay samey hasn't sat at a generator for hours. it's light fun, and they put in some good work with the jumpscares. it'll get me more than phasmophobia or demonologist, which are both games i love. …

honestly a solid 10/10 game, when i play new games i always go in to have fun but i dont hold my punches when pointing out flaws or what they can do to improve, but honestly with forsake it's an absolute diamond in the rough, it's only 5$ which in my opinion it should be 10-15 for the sheer content it provides, the devs are super involved and listen to feedback from what i have seen. while it may not be the best …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Couple of bugs, translation errors and such, but since this is day of release, I expected such. This game has potential! Not your regular Phasmo rip off that seemed to be popping up a LOT no no. The idea behind it is fun, run around, gather items, (kill the monster???) ect. I can't wait for future updates!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →[Concise review] Got slapped by the killer, my soul and items flew into the ceiling and disappeared. Turned the corner to run up the stairway to find it lurking in the dark, waiting for me beside the stairs and made me ♥♥♥♥ my pants. Toilet cubicle OP btw [Serious review] *NOTE: This review is made when the game is just released. Possible changes and improvements may be made in future patches to address the following points. Game was purchased just as it released and of course, there are…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of those great Unity horror games! Kinda takes me back to the times when I played classic Silent Hill games, you know, all this looking for keys / codes / key-cards; the spoopy pursuers and creepy places. Also reminds me "Damned" when it was alive in 2016. This is the good game in "all doors are locked, sн1t gets weird" atmosphere. I'm surely sending the extra copies to couple of friends to play together!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is super fun. I really did not what to expect when my friend got me this game so we could try it out together. I had never seen any videos of the game and had no prior knowledge. I have played devour and similar games. The start was super creepy, having no idea what you need to do and what is the monster and how to whoop the monster. The hospital is the best map for the first time, the narrow hallways and so many corners made it scary experience but fun. The mechanics are cool and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ my pants because I couldn't see 5m ahead of me and had the killer camp my toilet while I was inside the cubicle wiping my ♥♥♥♥ stained pants. Also had my friend get his items yeeted through the ceiling and being unable to retrieve them after dying. 7/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Worth noting: The REALLY unique stuff tends to also be VERY rough-edged since ya know, wild, unexplored frontiers and all that. Ya wanna see something interesting? Forsake the hype train, find ya a good 6-7/10 game or some obscure-ass thing with little major coverage.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very well done game. As a fan of Phasmophobia, I was just expecting another clone, but this was different enough to make it a very nice change up. Love that you can find equipment in the maps and get to keep it at the end if you survive, nice change having to always grind for money to get basics
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game with a friend because we wanted to record a video on it and I really enjoyed it. The gameplay to me was quite fun and the scares weren't normal scares, but they were terrifying nonetheless. The mechanic where you get to keep the tools you find in the maps is a good one. It makes it easier to get equipment for your next hunt without needing to dish out the money for them. Also, the graphics and sound quality are good for this game. I get completely terrified hearing Darth Vader…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i got this game when it first came out. To watch and see how much the game has developed and grown so quickly is amazing. the game is good, it's still rough like most early access games but the fact i keep coming back after every update to see whats happening now in game, is a great reason to give this game a go. i haven't had the chance to play multiplayer in the game yet but can only imagine the fun and hi jinks that would ensue for and multiplayer horror game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Where to start... It's a very young game, waiting for community feedback. It will hopefully keep on evolving considering these informations. Played, as of now, 3hours with a friend. You need some time for your own gameplay adjustements, understanding monsters specificities and getting the biggest part of how the procedural environment operates. And to handle those procedural maps. You will soon learn that, in Forsake, you can't really flee in blindness. You can fight, though. You can try to.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Forsake is so fun! The immersive intensity of the game makes it stand out from others. The graphics and gameplay both make it, it's own game and once you dive in it is such a fun time, the spooks are great, the horror ambiance is flawless and everything in the game is 10/10

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun with a group of friends, and the dev's are continuously updating and optimizing it at this point. Definitely worth 10$! Has that loot vibe of FORSWORN, being the only other game I know that does. Every time an update comes out with issues or performance drops, the devs have it fixed within a few days. The devs respond on the forums and clearly care about improving their game alongside the community. I can't wait to see the future of this game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →lost important item due to game glitch... now where to?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game has a lot of potential, the developers are very reactive regarding bugs. It's already a lot of fun but I can't wait for the updates to bring new content!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →♥♥♥♥ game and the developer banned a Turkish person from the Discord because they didn’t like their feedback, also had some people curse out the Turkish member with xenophobia.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is interesting. Unlike Phasmophobia, you need to exorcise the entity haunting the location by collecting the 3 relics and placing them in the pantacle. You collect loot and equipement while exploring. You can even leave the mission without exorcising the entity with a small loss in your loot. The game include a Small Skill tree and the map a randomly generated.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Forsake is another type of horror game that dives into the world of exorcising demonic entities. In this case you face against 7 different entities each with different strengths, speeds, and special abilities so it not a generic ghost touch you and you die type game. The game can be played with up to 4 players with each member having their own skilltree with different perks and armed with 12 different items (you can bring 3/4 with you to the site). At each site you be exploring to find keys…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly? An amazing game so far! Lots of potential, my friends and I can not wait to see what else this game brings. Love the maps, love that everything changes! Keep up the great work!!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Forsake is a seek and find game just like Devour and Occult. The only difference is you are trying to find all of the ritual items before you can even start the ritual. You have to go through and find the keys and codes to unlock the doors which at times is not easy. You get to buy equipment in the lobby of the game to help you better preform the exorcism. You also get objectives you can complete such as map out most of the map and take pictures of the entity. So far there are only 5 enemies…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game has potential but after crashing multiple times and then losing the progress that I've made I cannot recommend the game in its current state. Can shoot teammates with a gun though so that's cool though.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →costco phasmophobia terribly optimized save your time and money
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Forsake is amazing in providing a memorable experience and a good challenge, without making you molest your keyboard. While games like Devour make your temples beg for quick death, Forsake provides plenty of wiggle room for relaxation. You just need to properly time flashbangs and you can even blind death itself. Not a joke. Possessing a brain also helps, since on Nightmare mode (and you're too skillful for something less) you only get to carry ONE flashbang and remembering their location…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a fan of Horror Co-Op games, I can wholeheartedly say that this game is great! It's challenging, fun and scary. It's still fairly new and still in early access so give it a chance to get fuller lobby list, but you can sometimes find public lobbies. I wouldn't recommend playing solo so if you want to play a full match without speed running for xp and $ I would definitely talk your friends into getting it as well. But if you want hours of scares, laughs, challenges and fun with friends I would…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought the game and i steel want to pay money back because of this game still such a bad with bugs and non-optimised unity engine. I know that is early access but i can't play with 20 fps with nvidia gtx 1650. Developers pls fix bugs much soon as possible. For now who wants to play remember that after 2 hours of playing u woudn't return ur money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →hello the game is nice. some bugs but nothing annoying for the moment. it's fun and a bit scary ^^
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice! I can't even invite my friends to the game. Highly recommend if you want to waste 10 minutes of your time!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →33: Heatwave. Last Blade 2 and Eternal Fighter Zero had a gay transgender baby with a gigantic compelling story mode and fishing minigame. Forsake the false gods of AAA fighters and play some good ass doujin stuff with weird input interpreters. store.steampowered.com/app/2980420/...
neutral · AI labelView post →i love this game, i been playing for awhile and its so much fun. we just need more maps that are really big and more monsters. i would totally pay more for this game if they remake it with cleaner better detailed graphics. take my money if you decide to give the game a big boost. if anyone plays please add me and shoot a message because i cant find any players on my days off work.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome game. 10/10 You get a lot for that small price and besides that : IT WORKS. Not like all the other ghost hunting games that get patched to death sooner or later with glitchy mechanics. This is solid gameplay with a lot of fun ! Would buy again.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is such a fun mind going game to enjoy with friends so much fun is had with friends
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun with friends or a loved one!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very Very fun game. As others have said, it's better with friends for a number of reasons, but number one being that you are the only target when you solo. It's completely playable solo though, I have played many matches alone, and it just takes a little longer and you obviously have to be more careful. I can honestly say, this is one of, if not the best 10 dollar game I have ever played. Grab a buddy, and just buy it, you won't regret it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i play more then any of these people, basically everyday and i can tell you its better then quite a lot of my horror co op collections, it even goes a bit higher then phasmo and thats saying ALOT. However im a indie horror fiend, what can i say, and this game fills all the voids that some games dont. i think there may some pacing issues, but its just a solid game. 9/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A lot of fun. Sometimes it can be repetitive but it is fun hearing my friends scream and complain that the monster is only going after them XD.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Love how a small team can make such an awesome and creepy game. Can't wait what will be added and fine tuned to the game. If you like the paranormal and urban legends this is your game. In this co-op game you will investigate several haunted locations where an eveil entity haunts the rooms/streets/forerest. 10/10 would recommend to fans of the horror/Paranormal/Investigator games
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game to play with friends.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game. Still a beta but very thorough and thought out
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really enjoy it, already 3 maps are available. Can't wait for more content! It already has a lot of replayability thanks to the maps never being the sames and the difficulty modes. Please add a skill tree.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have enjoyed this game with my friends it has a fun aspect to just go goof around with your friends and have a slight scare factor would recommend to play in a group its more fun that way
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ive put a little time into the game so far, i have found it to be a fun game to play with good looking locations to adventure around. The art and music fit the game perfect i cant wait to see whats in the future for this game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →can not join game with friends
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is really fun I really like it it has some bugs but its not the full game yea its still in alpha I think so you cant really blame them me and my friend that played this are having a great time playing this game I do recommend to the creators to fix bugs then add more content I recommend this game to any body that likes horror I rate this game a 8/10 (I miss the kinfe)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is really fun, its a bit buggy but im sure it will be fixed soon me and my friend got it and we like it alot it also gets scary when you play at 2 am, its still developing and updates will come soon i will be playing this game alot more and its one of the scariest games I have played in along time I rate the game a good 9/10 its not 10 cause theres random out plugs in the middle of the air all in all i recommenced that you buy the game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun if you can find a group to play with. If Solo or Duo not fun.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Added screamers forever ago with no option to turn them off. Before that update I used to play a lot with two friends. However the screamers ruin the game for those who liked the atmosphere of it opposed to just in your face screamers. Its not good jumpscares. If I could get a refund for the change I genuinely would because it makes the game unenjoyable and is not what I signed up for. Is not what the game used to be. Update: a year later decided to check if any option was added still none. At…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a great game. If you have a good group to play with I highly recommend it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun as game with friends
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My gameplay: https://youtu.be/tspUAxify8c This was a super fun and scary game to play! I played it alone first time through, next will be with friends. And I played the first hospital map only. The mechanics are great, graphics are refined as well. I think it's nice having equipment and consumables, and the way the game implements them. There's a wide variety of creatures and maps which makes the game even more entertaining and won't get old easily. The small jump scares throughout the game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →2 games in and totally worth the 10$, tons of stuff to open and find, smooth game play. some levels have 60+ variations. locations and stories are actually interesting. Equipment shop and Skill tree make replaying and exploring worth it. Cant wait to see what else they add. Get your team together and head out into the field!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is the best horror game please make more levels too!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played this for a few hours and so far, we are having a lot of fun! Definitely play this with friends! If you are an amateur in horror games, frighten easy or like simple games, this is the game for you - we only played on easy and still had a lot of entertainment, but are also a bunch of scaredycats. You can turn up the complexity a lot more so I feel like there is a range for different player types. Seeing as this is an early access game, there is a lot of potential. I honestly cannot…
