Great game! I like that there’s two games going on at the same time: the card game and fighting the ghosts. The art and sound and the room dΓ©cor are very good. Nice job!

Love the game-play tradeoff / risk and reward of the game! You should develop this into a full game.

I never imagined that a memory card game could have so much tension, haha. Having to worry about ghosts coming to get ya while trying to remember what matches with what was definitely an interesting twist on the game, along with cleansing the cards! Made me quite paranoid always looking around to see if I was okay!

It looks very pretty + that music is super unnerving so makes for a rather spooky atmosphere :3

Incredibly beautiful aesthetics, neat designs, and super unsettling atmosphere. This is such a fun, unique twist on a memory/card match game and definitely deserves more attention. :) Those ghost sounds are genuinely creepy D:

It's amazing the impact that a little safety-management can have on something as simple as a card matching game! This is a really good idea. As someone who's not very good at these games, I'm grateful that it was merciful enough for someone like me to get through it! In a future version maybe it would be cool to make the ghosts come in more quickly as you get more matches, so the tension gets higher as you go (instead of lower, like in normal card matching). A very original idea! Nicely done!

This is fun, you guys really nailed the atmosphere. I feel like it didn't quite live up to what I was hoping, only because it feels like it's just a game of Memory but you have to keep clicking on the crosses if you want to make more matches. I don't feel like I'm earning the exorcisms. I was also told there was a jumpscare, and somehow anticipating a jumpscare and not getting one is somehow disappointing even though no one really wants to be jumpscared??
I would make it harder so that there's some tension, it will be inherently scarier that way.
