Reviews

“What truly makes World of Horror special are the little things. Watching the world deteriorate with every successful investigation is chilling.”
Kotaku

“It’s almost soothing to click through the game’s Rolodex of abominations, hoping to unlock something you haven’t seen before. There is no reason for me to continue playing right now, and yet I keep doing it.”
The Verge

“It’s an exceptionally well-realized throwback to early text-based RPGs, and with simple images and descriptive text, it shows how the power of horror can be effectively channeled in any medium.”
4.5/5 – Bloody Disgusting
