What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 120 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Mostly Positive (599 of 755 positive).
Some find the gameplay tedious due to slow movement and backtracking. [1][2][3]

This game was a genuinely frustrating experience. I'm a fan of qureate as a visual novel studio, but it seems like actual game design is not their forte. As a horror game, Livestream fails. The only threat seems to be this slasher villain chasing you through the halls of the hotel, but when he becomes more of a nuisance than a threat, the horror element is removed. Between the randomness factor, the fact he can …

”An Enjoyable Ecchi-Horror Experience of Neverending Nightmare” This review contains very subjective opinion as the game clearly advertises as “horror with ecchi elements” (which refer to softcore erotic fan service and non-hentai level) via trailer and official website. Please mind that it’s designed to serves niche audience. Livestream is one of many titles that I’ve been following for a while because of dark …

Decent little hide n seek puzzle game with a bit of spookiness. The spookiness wears off a bit too quick though; even for a giant wuss like me. WARNING: YOU CAN RUIN YOUR SAVE At a certain point in the game you need to figure out how to save someone. You can easily take too long and game over. You can also easily save your game while in this state and thus ruin your save file and have to start over. I lost almost 2 …

This review doesn't contain spoilers Livestream: Escape from Hotel Izanami is a horror game where you and your friends decide to explore an abandoned hotel. It's said that its owner committed a forced double suicide and that it's haunted. As you start exploring it, you notice your friends are suddenly gone and you need to find and try to rescue them, while escaping and hiding from the antagonist. The game takes …

I'll be honest, I mostly bought this for the LIVE2D stuff. But I have to say, it is gorgeous! For a so-called '''Sexual Content''' game, they did not skimp out on anything graphic-wise that didn't include the girls. This should have been a full on Visual Novel with some puzzles on the side. Sadly, the game itself is like an old-school horror game, tedium and all. Slow backtracking, pixel-perfect item searching and …

Before you see the thumbs down and dismiss it, I do want to say that the characters, horror atmosphere and story are genuinely good and that's something I really liked. If you just like ecchi content it's fine. Character designs and artwork are great. No comment on voice acting since I can't understand Japanese. The axe killer that chases you throughout is easy enough to hide from, but he…

You can easily get to the end in 2 hours if you find the items you need. However, if you enjoy going through and searching for all the endings (theres 5 in here), you'll get your moneys worth. The art in this game is pretty solid. The environment design is coherent (for the most part), the character portraits are what you'd expect from a visual novel, but all the characters walk cycles…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you want a game with cute anime girls, there are other games that will definitely satisfy your need. If you gave this a positive review purely because of the cute anime girls, you're misleading some unsuspecting victims. What really draws back this game is it's game play and overall layout. The default controls of this game are odd to say the least (which could be solved if the controls were configurable!), and the path that you take exploring this hotel will absolutely kill you if you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →3 morons VS 1 mascot killer I overall truly enjoyed my time with this game, however it has some peculiar flaws worth mentioning, especially considering the price. The premise is simple yet intriguing, with the story encompassing some interesting ideas and managing to keep me invested until the end. The characters are sweet and likable, but often painfully irrational during tense moments. Moreover, the detailed art looks stunning and the eerie atmosphere gets well-maintained. The various…

"Hey I just got chased by a mascot with a hatchet, I think now is a good idea to stand in the middle of a corridor and videocall my pal again." Most of the dialogue is just forced to make you like the characters, but it just got annoying, how do you intend the player to enjoy ur "horror" game if stupid dialogue interrupts the atmoshpere everytime its built. The panty shots are…

Negative aspects 1- Contrary to the advertisement, there's no actual nudity on the game, except for some lame fan service with no real nudity, and one scene on one of the endings, in which the nudity is heavily obscure, to the point that nothing can be distinguished (so the publishers committed…

This is not much of horror game, it is creepy hide & seek game with big walking amusement park maskot chasing you around. It is easy to hide from him but the spawning mechanic where he sometimes literally teleports into the room you are in and corners you is really frustrating. The adventure part of the game is pretty bad. I feel like a lot of effort went into making bunch of cute…

neutral · AI labelView post →Not only does this game fail as a horror, completely failing to properly drive tension and terror, it also fails to be interesting. 5 minutes at the most caught my attention, but most of the game has you simply side scroll from A to B, with your flow constantly being stop-gapped by an underwhelming antagonist that is spawned much too frequently, to the point of annoyance. It's a shame, because the art, v/a work, premise, and most of the components besides the gameplay are all great. How do you…

Since CIG did the gameplay Livestream (the one where Ollie made his debut with the company), I'm not holding my breath with SQ42. I know, 2 different games, but if that was the best case scenario showcasing Star Citizen, then how does SQ42 look? Here's hoping it turns out to be an amazing game and a true spiritual successor to the Wing Commander series though!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly I think the game would be better as a full on visual novel with interactive sequences, or as a point and click adventure. Nothing really stands out much, its not really scary partially as the villian doesn't feel scary, the story is generic(Cute girls go to haunted place...) and the ecchi is half assed(only present in the cutscenes that is suppose to have tension?). The gameplay on the other hand is appaling, its a 2d adventure game where you walk around trying to solve puzzles while…
