About

A psychological horror adventure game. Discover the four interconnected psychological horror stories. Explore different retro pixel art 1 bit to 8 bit environments in each of the stories. From a third person view in the purest retro style to a first person system reminiscent of old labyrinth games. In a mysterious and strange consultation with the psychiatrist, he analyses you by making you play disturbing video games, with different endings. You experience past traumas, occult cults, a cursed bunker and much more. Each of them has a meaning, and as you progress through his analysis, everything gets creepier, you don't know why you're there, or how it's all going to end. Discover the mysterious relationship you have with your psychiatrist, who has something very special in mind for you

    The Creepy Syndrome is not creepy and features no syndromes. It is a low-budget horror title that relies entirely on jump scares and stilted, cliché-filled writing. If you skip the dialogue and get a strategy video you can get an easy 1000g out of it in an hour or two, but you will not have an enjoyable time while doing so.

    This short story is unusual because you’d expect BOOMFIRE Games to lead with its strongest game, yet it hits with the worst. This is the most dream-like of all the offerings, with a Dungeon Master-style 3D dungeon-crawler used as an allegory for an amnesiac woman remembering past trauma.
