What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 20 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Positive (26 of 29 positive).
Players find The Bunker a short but enjoyable indie horror game. [1][2] A few players criticize the story and gameplay as underwhelming. [3][4]

– You enter a bunker. – You “explore” the bunker. – You read some poorly written notes. – You die repeatedly to some fast-moving creepy_smile.png. – You eventually make your way out of the bunker. – The end. The ending credits labelled this “to be continued,” despite offering nothing worth continuing. It wasn’t worth paying for, and it wasn’t worth playing.

Short, enjoyable indie horror game. The story was straightforward and easy to follow. The game mechanics were simple. You can turn the VHS filter off, which I did, and the game still looks great. Sound design had me nervous that something might pop out at any moment. The sewer section could've been more tense; maybe I was just too good at finding the exit quickly? I played the demo during Next Fest, got left on a …

Short and good game. I don’t get the hate. It’s a 2-dollar game and the experience matches that price.

I don't know if I was the only one who experienced this issue, but as of right now, there is a bug that I spent an hour trying to fix and couldn't get it to work. There's a room where you have to pick up a flashlight pretty early on, but no matter what I did, it wouldn't let me grab the flashlight. Because of that, I couldn't progress. I tried crouching - no crouch button. I tried kicking it around to get it on an …

An ok game I suppose story wise though there were a few problems like Ben going into the house I think but when the sirens go off he is no where to be seen & 2 weeks later when the main character is starving they say they can't find any food but then not too far away from the bed they get a can of food. Another thing is every single door saying it needs a key when they don't only a few doors do and it would of been …

Giving the player the means to defend themselves and scare off the monster for a time actually raises the tension dramatically. store.steampowered.com/app/1944430/...

neutral · AI labelView post →The Bunker Game started as something I used in my 'The Nuclear Cold War' undergrad module at Edinburgh Uni. Jon has worked some magic on it and turned it into a really cool product. A 'party game' if you think that being a survivor in Threads looks like a fun experience.

I still haven't played Amnesia: The Bunker, but I'm pretty sure based on what I know that I'll like it Anyway, I just finished Rebirth and it was excellent. Easily some of the most scary moments I've had playing a game
neutral · AI labelView post →Amnesia: The Dark Descent and Amnesia: The Bunker are both the definitive indie horror games if you ask me. 💀 The Wolf Among Us isn't a horror game per say but it has horror elements and very much fits the Halloween motif with its setting and cast. 🐺
