Poll of the Day > Fear and Hunger is shitty excellence

(+) Yeah! (+)

At face value it's a sexual-horror themed RPG maker game... but it actually nails all the good beats of a good horror game.

...

So why do I say it's shitty? Well, for how good it is it is grossly lacking polish. Your stats do nothing, half the items are useless; there are dozens of typos, you can auto-equip the ONE cursed item in the game. Almost all the assets look one-off from an RPG Maker default (except for the monsters, which are pretty good).

But just below the shit is a treasure box of content. We're gunna go into some spoiler territory, but I'll try to keep it anonymous

The game is divided into basically 3 main regions: The Castle, The Dungeons and the SPOILER. You'll spend most of your time in The Castle since that's where most the items are and where THE ONLY SAVE POINTS are.

The next section is the dungeons which is split between the Thicket and the Mines; While all your items are in the castle, all your potential party members are in the Dungeons.

Your main goal in the game is to rescue (kill for one of the characters) a dude named Le'garde... and once you do so you can just leave the dungeon and win. But there are layers... LAYERS you can keep going, and it gets harder and DEEPER the further you delve.

If you manage to put together all the mysteries you'll be greeted with some very satisfying super-bosses (all of which, sadly, are super weak to poison if you want to cheat).

On top of that, every character has a secret ending. You might think that each ending requires going to the deepest possible level, but no! I was very surprised that each of the special endings is personalized to the character and satisfying.

So if you like "onion" games where you just get to dig deeper... play it.

I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I've been seeing it around YouTube over the past few months.
