Sophie's Curse 1.1

Sophie’s Curse demo is a horror game from developers Trerplay, you are tasked with looking after an elderly man and although he should pose no problem and sleep through the night rumor has it the house is haunted and you are the only person willing to take the job. The only thing you need to do in the house is to keep the lights charge which work on a rather antiquated wind and charge system there are four lamps scattered throughout the house and you must keep moving to each one and make sure the charge does not run too low by constantly moving to each one and while this doesn’t make for the most enthralling game play the sense of fear building is great, the thunder sounds outside the window and if you leave any of the lamps without winding it up it will start to flicker before going out and that’s where the scary bit comes in, this game is full of jump scares and even when you know they are coming they are done so well they still have the ability to make you jump out of your skin.

This game is reminiscent in an odd way of Five Night’s at Freddie’s although not as colorful it’s very easy to learn and play, simply clicking and using the two mouse buttons for all controls but the jump scares when they come here are much scarier than in that game, could this game be more popular than the iconic Five Night’s? In my opinion yes it’s certainly scarier.

This is still only the demo version of Sophie’s Curse but it really will be a thrill for fans of the horror genre and if it improves with more development it is going to be a fantastic horror game.
