Like Driving Home, Missing Hiker builds slow foreboding tension for the relatively short playthrough - you do have the sense that someone or SOMETHING is about to pop out from the woods...

Pros:

  • Slow build horror 
  • With a couple of jump scares (one got me, the other didn't) you'll be questioning things after the credits have rolled - ambiguous ending leaves questions for the player which I enjoyed
  • Each new episode from the developer shows growth and intrigued to find out what's next 

Cons:

  • Shame that there isn't more to do with the car - its a great mechanic but maybe something could be utilised with it for a future episode?
  • Apart from interacting with the people in the gas station and the other NPC, ending felt a little rushed with regards to investigating brother's disappearance. Walking between scenes seemed a tad long. Understand this was to create tension though.
  • Story could have been developed a little more - felt that the relationship between the siblings could have been expanded upon, or that notes left by the brother could be clues creating even more tension.
