I played The Interview thinking it was gonna be a light little mockumentary-style horror game.
10 minutes later I’ve developed a personal vendetta against a cardboard cutout named Erik.
12/10 would play again!
I really enjoyed this game! I'm a huge fan of urban legends, especially Japanese ones, and this absolutely hit the spot. There's something so eerie and immersive about Hachishakusama, and the way this game brought the legend to life was both creepy and oddly calming.
The graphics were beautiful — they had this soft, quiet atmosphere that made the tension hit even harder when it needed to. It’s not a jumpscare-heavy game… and yet, I still managed to get jumpscared twice! 😂
I also really appreciated the multiple endings and how the game let us explore them without forcing a full restart — that’s such a thoughtful touch. I do wish we got to see more of the little fox though, it was so cute.
Overall, this was a fantastic experience. Thank you so much for making this — I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on your future work!
Honestly, it was way more unsettling than I expected. It’s not one of those loud jump-scare games — it’s the kind of creepy that just sticks with you.
Being stuck on a night shift at a gas station, trying to figure out who’s a doppelgänger and who’s not? It had me creeped out and unsure of myself the whole time.
What I’m really hyped about is that you can play with friends in the full game. That’s gonna be wild. Can’t wait to see what else they add because this game is awesome.
Big props to Bun Muen for this one.
Just wanted to say thank you for creating such a strange and unsettling little experience — it genuinely got under my skin in the best way.
We featured your game in a recent YouTube video where we played a few of the creepiest games we could find on Itch.io, and Wooden Box was the perfect way to kick things off.
I don’t usually leave reviews — but this game shook me.
Unreal PT is one of the most faithful, terrifying remakes I’ve ever played.
The atmosphere is perfectly suffocating. The sound design alone had me questioning every step. I went into this thinking I’d be able to finish it for a YouTube video… I couldn’t. I tapped out. Legit too scared to continue.
Massive respect to InvertedEarthTheory — you’ve created something seriously unsettling, and incredibly well made. This is horror done RIGHT.
If you're looking for a short, psychological nightmare that stays with you long after the screen goes dark — this is it.
🎥 I recorded my playthrough (or at least, until I cracked):
I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME PLAYING THIS GAME, I REALLY WISH IT WAS LONGER. IT WAS REALLY WELL MADE AND I WAS ENTHRALLED BY THE STORY PLAYING OUT.
