CAN NEVER SLEEP IN PEACE!! | Are You Awake
Buen juego
I give this indie horror game a 5/5 here is why. This game starts out great, I like walking around turning on the lights in our house. Kind of made our house scarier and such. The mannequins were also a nice touch; it added more to the horror experience. Having the furniture and mannequins in the house be moved around made me question my sanity and made me scared of the entity. The jumpscares were good, they manage to scare me, and the weird looking dude was also creepy looking. This was a great indie horror game to play, and I hope to see you make more.
I like the concept, the idea of not rest for work or problems in life, and there is not "free jump scares" The horror is elaborated. Good game!!
awesome game!
Super fun game friend! Thanks for the wonderful spooks!~
cool game, works through wine even out of the box btw my fellow penguin enjoyers,
didnt even have to download fonts - atleast on debian's version of wine
i love this if it cost 2 billion dollars it would be worth all the money tysm for making this spooky masterpieac
Cool game I liked it! Keep it up! 😊
This was such a great game :)
Awesome game Woyboy! Very scary. 5 Stars!
Muy buen juego!
Wow que buen Juego saludos Y Gran Trabajo Aquí les dejo mi Gameplay
I like the gimmick of the game where the person gets insane. Could have been better if the other rooms are usable.
But so far the microjumpscares really scared me
i would rate it an 8.4/10

Loved the big dude and the naked dudes in the room. 10/10
You did it! You successfully won The Most Boring Game of the Day! It's been done to death, nothing original, tedious and pointless. It takes talent to make a good game worth playing. While this was technically functional it was just not a good game. I feel like my time was wasted. I won't lick your boots because I need content to stream, I just tell you the truth as it is.
