Fun little horror
I went into this game completely blind, not knowing anything about it except that it had a cool cartoonish art style and I have to say that it is definitely one of the nicest looking games I’ve played. Everything in the environment has an orange hue over it, making it look like those old photos you see sometimes in movies (or maybe even in your grandparents’ collections). The story of the game reminds me of Creepypastas I used to read back in the days with haunted cartoon characters that want to kill you in an abandoned production studio (a bit like this https://creepypasta.org/s/599/abandoned-
by-disney) Five Nights at Freddy’s is a game that comes to mind when playing Bendy.
The best thing about the game was the characters with the first character you meet being a Goofy lookalike but one that never talks and just stares at you when you first see him wherever you walk. Slightly creepy but he grew to be favourite character considering he was my partner through most of one chapter.
Another stand out character was the first ‘evil’ character you meet in the game, Sally the Angel though she’s far from angelic. Throughout chapter 3 she gives you tasks to do and to say her voice is menacing is an understatement. Her voice acting was perfect for her character.
As for the game itself, I got midway through chapter 3 and I concluded that the game just wasn’t for me but I finished it anyway as there were only 5 chapters in total.
Overall I found the game okay but I believe it was made to be a kid friendly horror game anyway, probably one that my niece or nephew would enjoy more than me as it contains minimal combat and nothing too intense in terms of horror. The game gets a 5/10 from me.
I played the Ps4 version of the game however it is also available to play on PC, Xbox One, Switch and even mobile!
