I went into this game looking forward to seeing how it ended. The first two games were amazing and set the scene for a really great storyline. I didn't even mind the fact that the release date was continually changed. To me, that means that they're working hard to make an amazing conclusion to an amazing trilogy...then I started playing part three and my joy for these games was replaced with disappointment. I was …

The long-awaited game and the conclusion of the trilogy. True Fear is one of the best point-and-click games I've played. While they started as a HOG, the second and third games turned into an adventure. In this game, you will continue from where you left off with Holly. Things are hectic and might look all over the place, but when you read every single piece of evidence you find, along with the clues around the …

So here we are. After 7 long years this story finally reached it's end. Was it good? Did it meet the expectations? Well, let's check it out step by step. First of all, the moment you start playing, you recognize that it is indeed that game. That atmosphere, that gameplay, those visuals, those ambients. Everything is at it's place and on high level as before. Special word about local puzzles. And there is a lot of …

The gripping finale of the True Fear: Forsaken Souls series, and one of the best games of it's kind. Melding point-and-click adventure, puzzle solving, and hidden object finding into a cohesive package, the story here is very involved and not always easy to follow. Luckily, there's a journal kept that lets you look back on events that have happened so you can determine in your own mind what happened. The best part …

Wow this has to be the longest point and click game I've ever played and I even used the hint doll quite a bit! Good spooky game. Great trilogy.

The puzzles were cleverly crafted, offering a satisfying challenge, and the gameplay was engaging and immersive throughout. The conclusion tied everything together beautifully. However, I did wish there had been more emphasis on the hidden object aspect, as I find that element particularly captivating. I won’t delve too deeply into the specifics in this review, but overall, it was a fantastic…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An appropriate ending for an excellent trilogy of modern HOG-puzzle games. I truly believe this is very likely the best saga of this genre (yep, it definitely beats Enigmatis). While I didn't particularly like the direction the story ultimately took (a mere matter of taste, it's not something I haven't seen before and I usually feel this way, regardless of how well it's done), I can 100% appreciate what they did, the small hints laid out everywhere (including in the first two games)…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →*Spoilers for anyone who hasn't played* I was looking forward to this game so much. I loved the first two games in the series, and when I saw the third one was out, I snatched it up, thinking I'd get to see a wonderful resolution to the trilogy. Instead, I got what I can only describe as a dissapointment. For starters, it feels like this game completely ignores the 2nd game's ending, because we somehow went from Holly traveling back into the past at the asylum to her being at the school she…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's like watching an amazing horror movie and in the end... In the end it was just in their head. Utter disappointment and lets down the first two amazing games. The only good scare was the apartment utility closet. Other than that it felt rushed and they took the easy route out. Could have been so much better. 2 is definitely better.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I do not say this lightly as I loved the first two games so much that I have them on several platforms. It was refreshing and the atmosphere was amazing. I felt on the edge of my seat wanting even more of the store. This is.....kinda a mess. I'm so confused as to how we got from the ending of part 2 to part 3. It made it seem like we were stepping into the past and instead I am shoved into whatever this is. I tried to keep up with the plot but, I was only becoming even more lost. The…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is fantastic—the story is great and the price is totally fair, but you really should play the whole trilogy. In my opinion, it’s a game you can play through multiple times. No jumpscares it’s just a little spooky in a chill way ;) I highly recommend this game. Best regards to Goblinz thanks for this game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really loved the first 2 games, but I am SO disappointed in the narrative conclusion. If you're not fussed about the story, this is a decent HOPA. One or two of the puzzles are deviously complicated on expert mode. In the first 2 games, you constantly had to trace and retrace your steps to find clues and answers, but this one is WAY more on-the-rails, which is disappointing from the franchise. Now, all that aside, the STORY is the truly terrible part of this game. Without spoilers, what I…

positive · AI labelView post →These three games are definitely a labor of love by the Goblinz team. I played the first two, at least ten years ago. The third game finally came out after a very long time. The notes in the bonus material explain why. Apparently the project was hijacked by a HOPA expert who wanted the cookie cutter HOG machinery with which seasoned HOG players are so disgusted with these days. I am so happy the team rescued the project and redid it to match their vision. With so few HOG devs. who actually care…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played the first part of the game for the first time when it was released on the bigfish site. It was amazing, it gave chills and it was truly a paranormal horror story with amazing music. Now they changed it, they cut some parts and it's not the same game anymore. The second part has always been meh. Even if Dimmie released it years after he announced the date release, it was not at the level of the first one, but the story was still definitively a paranormal horror one. The third part of…

neutral · AI labelView post →It's the weakest of the series, with the story abruptly ending on an anticlimax - the puzzles seemed to be missing key hints in order to make them playable. I regularly spent a while seeing if I could find ANY other clue that might explain them further to no avail they needed more setup in the notes to add extra context as to why they're there and what the answer might involve. The other two games had a charm to the story, cutscenes and puzzle elements - while they certainty weren't scary,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An unbelievable, beautiful, dark and eerie game, revealing a complex world and a psychological nightmare. I absolutely loved it and hope Dimmie and his team create more games like this. Those of us who have waited years for it are not disappointed. I do wish there was a way to go back for the figurines I missed though. My only complaint.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Brilliant, It was definitely worth the wait! Plenty of game play, atmosphere and interesting puzzles. Some people have a issue with the ending but It makes sense and was an interesting twist. I would definitely recommend the whole trilogy!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A TRULY UNFORGETTABLE ADVENTURE! Take note, developers! True Fear Forsaken Souls should be the standard you strive to achieve in every game moving forward. No, I'm not referring to the genre itself (although this is my favorite genre topic); I'm referring to the content, game mechanics, adventure aspect, graphics, creativity, and entertainment factor. THE TRILOGY EVOLVES: The True Fears trilogy was forced to evolve because Dimmie felt the first game was too safe. Early publisher demands…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Incredibly unique game. I loved reading through all of the lore and also all of the details of how the game was made. Super neat to hear about the connection to Tell Me Why, as that has become a favourite of mine as well. It's too bad to hear about what could have been with a bigger budget and without The Producer cutting so much out. I hope the team can continue to make more amazing games.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fantastic game 10/10 I 100% recommend getting the entire franchise and supporting the devs any way you can
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This review will not be sappiness or spoiler free, so beware! Oh man. What can I say. The first game of this series came out when I was in high school and was also probably one of the first games I've ever bought after years of free flash games, and now I got to play the ending as I'm finishing med school! From the start, I fell in love with the immersive storyline this series brought, along with creative puzzles and lack of predatory tactics "free" similar games offered. Thus, I had…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I absolutely hate horror games, and I'm not honestly even sure how I came to play the first one, much less the second, but the third was a beautiful, fitting end to the trilogy. The puzzles were good and the cutscenes were as terrifying as they were wonderfully animated. The options to customize your gameplay allow you to take the story as best suits your needs. I really like the way that this wrapped up the storyline laid out in the first two games, and equally turned the whole thing on…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been waiting for the conclusion to this series for years now, and I have to say, I was not disappointed. There's always been a level of care put into this story, that you don't often see with these types of games. A lot of the puzzles are genuinely challenging, (Some of them almost a little too much so! Thank God for the skip option lol) and while a lot of the gameplay feels generic, like most HO games do, it's presented in a way that feels fresh, and unique. The story itself is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Part 3 is.... polarazing. Mechanicaly it's still good. I enjoyed playing it immensly, and even few times i got stuck not upset me too much (shoelace in act 2 and a second rubber boot in act 3) despite being a bit of a pixelhunt. Most solutions to the problems follow resonable logic, or at least a self consistent one. Music is atmospheric, art style is still enjoyable. Although some 3d additions are rather glaring, especially the elevator sequence... like what the hell? Was it a testbed for next…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Finally! This game was actually well optimized! That and... This one is longer than the previous two. o.o Okay well... The third game is between the first and second one. As in... It's not as creepy as the first one, but it's not annoying as the second one. (The only annoyance are those two mini games. >.>) And you NEED this one if you actually care about the story and want to visit some more abandoned places. In the H.O.G. that is. I now understand why I didn't get wth was going…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game, but no where near as good as the first 2. It does seem much longer though.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yeah absolute masterpiece (as long as you follow the story) I was ever so slightly disappointed with the very end couple of scenes, but the twist was excellent and the layers and complexity was beautifully done! Very underrated hidden gem :))
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thumbs up for the series, thumbs down for this entry. In the first two I tried hard to do as much as I could on expert, used a couple hints when I got stuck, but no problem! I really liked the puzzles and exploration stuff was mostly clear. In this one I was immediately getting stuck all over the place. Their environments had a lot more pixel hunty spots that were not clearly a place to interact with, so I had to let go of the expert dream early on and kept needing hints throughout. There is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just love this game, I really feel the story. It is fabulous, a shame it is the last one...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is an innovation on the genre! Any fan of hidden object games, or puzzle games in general, absolutely must play this game. The puzzles weren't just difficult, but incredibly creative. They're at a level of ingenuity I haven't seen since the glory days of Mystery Case Files. The story is beautiful and remarkably compelling. It ties a tidy bow on everything the trilogy built to. I got teary eyed at the end. If you love HOPAs, play the trilogy! You will not be disappointed.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Okay I just played out the first True Fear game And it was soooo good! I love a good puzzly horror so much
positive · AI labelView post →A beautifully, dark and psychological ending on a perfect trilogy. Did I see the story take a turn in that direction? No. But I'm really happy with where it took me! Otherwise the waiting for part 3 would have been too long. I'm really happy that Dimmie kept on with the intended ending he wanted for the game. Thank you for keeping the story real! The game gives you the perfect creepy scary vibe but still allows you to keep a cool head so you can actually solve some of those puzzles. To my…

I do miss the hidden objects parts from the past two True Fear games, but it was still very fun. I'm sad that I finished it. I have nothing to play now.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Disappointed. I wanted to like this game, but the plot was too disappointing. It's well made game play wise, so I have no complaints there, but the ending is a stereotypical "we don't know how to end this, so lets say it was all in the protagonist's head" type of feel. Wish I could just rate this as "meh" but steam only does like or dislike and I'm tired of all the psychological trauma horror tropes.
