Greetings, I just recently came across this game from videos that I have seen and I gotta say, it's a pretty decent experience! The atmosphere, the real life pics adding a different kind of uneasiness and I gotta admit, I was gotten pretty good by two different jumpscares!
The first being some square shadow thingy that looks as if it's falling down or trying to enter through the camera, never get to get a better look as my reflexes always switch to another cam and then the sound that plays when the human shaped appears as shown as the main image of the game's icon, pretty spooky!
Other than working on figuring out the anomalies and stuff in order to be able to clear the Hard difficulty there is just one thing that I'm having a bit of a difficulty understanding, that one ghostly sock puppet thingy that occasionally appears and attacks you, how do we avoid that? So far I've had like 3 completely different cases of it appearing with the 4th one being similar to the third but lost in a different way, the first time it did I was at too many anomalies alert and therefore I thought it was just the game over screen from that, in the second one it simply appeared when I did not have the anomaly alert, the third was in the living room of the first area, the contrast/colours of the screen then were suspicious looking and I thought it was something I had to report but it appeared and killed me, so at least I knew that on that screen it did actually have an indication, so with the last encounter I got to the living room again, the screen was once again the same way suspicious so I switched cameras while I still had the chance! Buut it still ended up getting me and died.
I'm rather clueless on what I'm really supposed to do with that one, I was thinking that it probably had a chance of it appearing if I was switching the cameras too quickly but I'm fairly certain after the second attack I have been a lot more patient with the switching.
When you first hear that whispering sound and get attacked, it means two things.
1. You are too slow to switch cameras, you stand still at one camera, or you switch back and forth between the same 1-2 cameras. If you stay on the same 1-2 cameras for too long (around 50-60 seconds), you get noticed by entities. For gameplay aspect, this also prevents cheating.
2. If you switch cameras regulary but again you get attacked, it means there are too many active unremoved anomalies. There are more than 3 anomalies in different cameras but you don't see it. You need to look more carefully. In easy and normal mode you hear whispering sound and " Too many active anomalies" message just before the attack. But in hard mode, you don't get warned before the attack.
Ahhh so in Hard mode we don't actually get notified about that and therefore are more likely to get attacked by it if we're not too wary of the Anomalies, the continuous quick checking then rotating of the camera is actually the strat then, that's good to know, thanks a lot for the info!
Oh also there are two things that I would like to report with the mobile version, I'm on android and occasionally when I'm switching cameras before it shows me the new camera it will instead for a second show me a previous screen that I had gone through which messes me up for a moment quite a bit because that quick glimpse will confuse me on where I'm at at the moment and even more so because the depiction of said screen is one from before I had reported the anomaly so with something big like the human shaped under the blanket or shut down lights almost makes me do a false anomaly report, unless if this is just part of the game or something.
And lastly it would be about reflections on the glass and mirror, with cases that I've had I either could easily tell that I had to deal with a reflection because after switching to the screen for a second a blue square would cover the whole glass/mirror reflection with afterwards appearing properly and on another occasion it was the exact opposite, when I switched to a camera I could actually see the reflection itself during the "screen loading" before I could actually see the room.
I will release an update for these two things you mentioned. This happens on relatively slower devices on which the syncronization can't happen properly. Please check the version 5.3 and above soon(in a couple of hours). And tell me if this issue fixed or not. Thank you.
Alrighty I checked it out, the reflection thing seems to be persistent but more in the sense of after the next screen loading the whole reflection will be covered by a blue square for half a second and then it will go away to reveal the reflection rather than the reflection itself being visible in the screen loading and as for the short glimpse of a previous screen when it does occur it's when there is actually an anomaly on the current screen therefore it actually helps out, though by this point I suppose it's due to the device that I have unless other's come across the same thing as well, also actually managed to get 2 perfect successes so far with the first map so that's a win! It certainly is a good thing that false reports don't seem to reduce the score.
Overall good game with few things that were weird.
first of all, all of the maps were too blurry for me to see what is exactly going on.
second of all, some of the anomalies were very hard to report because of the confusing report system, that left me thinking what i should report it as and some didn't make sense to me.
and lastly the ghost anomalies (png of ghosts) could have been a little more blended into the enviroment.
Great game ! Love the scares and creepiness each room gives ! Had a problem with the game crashing when i got to the end of the night but other than that fantastic game !
Uploading my VOD from today on yt rn ( paranormal inc starts at 54:50)
where i have played every map on every difficulty. love the concept! i really love the ickieness of the reallife footage :D i only have 2 things i personally think could improve the game. for one, i did not feel a big difference between difficulty middle and hard. for second, i think most scares would do better without the sound announcing that something scary just happened :D in a game where the objective is to find anomalies, it feels weird to have the anomaly announce itself so loudly. I felt like i would be much more scared if the scares would go more like mortuary assistant scares. scary because the player finds them himself. i hope i got across what i meant, other than that, love the maps, love the reoccuring things like the plushies :D this is a very nice game for streaming!! will keep streaming it :) keep up the great work!
Actually as you mentioned, I have been getting messages about removing some tense ambiance where the game can get more scary without them. I did removed most of them in version 5.1
The difficulty level between medium and hard is more saturated now. Hard level has more anomalies and success rate is 90 percent.
Continuing my attempts to beat each map with a perfect score and I absolutely love how the third map looks! Only gave it a brief attempt but excited to play more!
No, game does not update by itself. Just download the latest version and play. Your progress will be kept unless you delete from windows registry (which is not possible by accident).
Yes, in the demo version there are 3 locations.
There are 4 locations in Android and iOS versions.
You probaly downloaded the latest version but somehow running the previous version. Please delete all the existing game folders and extract the latest game zip file. I just downloaded and checked, it is working fine. Version is 5.0
I love the game but please make the new map less blurry! It honestly messed with my eyes. It's way more blurry than the other maps. It looks like you took off your glasses rather than realistic old footage blur
no me deja responder el comentario así que publico uno nuevo :b. Ese es el problema que tengo, todo los sonidos y demás están bien, pero veo todas las cámaras así
I just played the librarian map. I probably need to keep playing if I wanted to see some scary stuff like the human shaped and ghost. Also, I did see something on the couch in the first camera. Something that looks like a brown leather to me but it said it’s not “Extra object”. Can you tell me what that is? if that ok
Hey! The game looks fantastic, I was wondering if you are going to port it over to Mac, and if so when could we be expecting it? Keep up the amazing work!
HI man! This game is cool! me with my friends plaiyng every update, and checking updates everyday. and bc im in russia, i cant buy full version on app store, sorry! i wanted to know, when is the new map? love your game! waiting for the updates!!!
Amazing game, had a lot of fun with the different anomalies and the play style. I enjoyed trying to take my time and get as accurate of a score as possible!
Definitely gonna be getting this from the App Store today. Can’t wait to see more maps! If you need more, I have a location that would work well I think
Hi! I really like your game, you did an amazing job. I was wondering when that tense music plays, I send it as "Sound/Noise" but it doesn't work and I die.
What does that sound mean? Does it mean something is in the room?
Thanks for the feedback. When you hear a tense music, it points to an anomaly such as; Human shaped, Ghost/Monster/Alien, Reflection on glass, Reflection in mirror, Shadow.
And sometimes in some anomalies, the subject walks or runs away from sight when you are not looking at your monitor for a second. Then you only hear the tense music and can't figure out. So watch the monitor carefully :)
This game was pretty cool! I liked how the scenes looked switching between anomalies and really enjoyed the scares! My one concern was how many different types of reporting there were, cause at first it looks very intimidating but after playing a while, it became obvious which ones should go to what reports. Thanks for the awesome game and I look forward to seeing more of your games in the future :) I added your game to my 3 Scary Games series and I really loved playing it!
Hello, I am soory to hear that. I have been trying to find that random crash bug. Please download the latest version and try. Please let me know it happens again. Thanks!

Hi!
Wow thank you so much for the reply! Love your engangement with the communtiy. You're doing great! Cant wait for more!
Quick question, are you the corpse on the third maps floor? :D that was so funny!!
Thanks for the support!
Does the game update by itself?
It says you are on version 5.0. When I open the game it says 4.9?
Does it update automatically by itself?
There are only 3 locations right now. Is that correct?
Hello,
No, game does not update by itself. Just download the latest version and play. Your progress will be kept unless you delete from windows registry (which is not possible by accident).
Yes, in the demo version there are 3 locations.
There are 4 locations in Android and iOS versions.
I did download and its still 4.9
You probaly downloaded the latest version but somehow running the previous version. Please delete all the existing game folders and extract the latest game zip file. I just downloaded and checked, it is working fine. Version is 5.0
I love the game but please make the new map less blurry! It honestly messed with my eyes. It's way more blurry than the other maps. It looks like you took off your glasses rather than realistic old footage blur
I agree. Sorry about that. I fixed it. I did the best I can.
Hello,
Thanks for the support!
no me deja responder el comentario así que publico uno nuevo :b. Ese es el problema que tengo, todo los sonidos y demás están bien, pero veo todas las cámaras así
Holaa, tengo un problema... veo todas las cámaras en azul, por qué será? :(
Hola, no he escuchado que este problema haya ocurrido antes. ¿Puedes grabar un video corto o al menos algunas capturas de pantalla? Gracias

Is it normal that I have the game in English and not in French since the 4.4 update on Windows?
I had it in French before.
Hello,
Yes you are right. Sorry about that. I will upload an update soon.
Hakan
That's what we call responsiveness :)
Will the stars stay the same? if i update my game
Yes
Thanks a lot! Got a few hundred stars in the 1.9 version and was worried that updating might make me redo the whole thing!
Does the game update on it's own?
Nope, it doesn't!
Hi Riv3r!! I LOVE YOUR GAME BUT IM GONNA GO INSANE COS I CANT FINISH IT. PLEASE FIX THE CRASHING BUG, MY GF KEEPS BLAMING ME FOR IT </3
Hi! Will there be a full version for PC?
I am planning to release a full version for PC, after I add some more levels.
Hey! The game looks fantastic, I was wondering if you are going to port it over to Mac, and if so when could we be expecting it? Keep up the amazing work!
Hello, Thank you for the feedback. Actually there is a Mac version you can download from app store. But it is full version and paid.
HI man! This game is cool! me with my friends plaiyng every update, and checking updates everyday. and bc im in russia, i cant buy full version on app store, sorry! i wanted to know, when is the new map? love your game! waiting for the updates!!!
Thank you for the feedback. There will be a new location soon.
Amazing game, had a lot of fun with the different anomalies and the play style. I enjoyed trying to take my time and get as accurate of a score as possible!
Definitely gonna be getting this from the App Store today. Can’t wait to see more maps! If you need more, I have a location that would work well I think
Great game really having a blast on it. few good jump scares got me spooked lol . looking forward for more locations too. Excellent work
Excellent job, as usual.
Really addictive game, can't wait to have new locations on PC version.
I'm sure this will be a good game. I'm gonna buy the app store one.
Thank you for the support !

Dev. I Can provide to you video footage from my house. Up to 28 rooms.
You game is awesome. I would like game is updated to new houses.
In the hallway, there is a jacket like shadow, but it doesn't show up for anything when trying to report it. What anomaly is it supposed to be?
are you that bad at the game i have 1300+ pts
Hello,
It is "cabinet door opened/closed"
This game got me a few times! Both with jump scares and rage lol
Thanks for playing and for your support :)
Thank you for your excellent work.
It would be interesting to put the version number of the game on the home screen, when starting.
Thank you for the feedback. Yes it is a good point. I will do that soon.
This game was pretty cool! I liked how the scenes looked switching between anomalies and really enjoyed the scares!

game was fun but crashed every time couldn't finish the first level without the game crashing is this normal or is this a problem on my side?
Hello, I am soory to hear that. I have been trying to find that random crash bug. Please download the latest version and try. Please let me know it happens again. Thanks!
played new version zero crashes thank you sm for fixing the issue (games great btw)
