  • Summary: Just a few minutes into Creaks, you will bump into some strange barking creatures in the mansion’s dark corridors. But are they as dangerous as they seem? Try to get them trapped under a beam of light and take a closer look.

But are they as dangerous as they seem? Try to get them trapped under a beam of light and take a closer look. You may find out that what felt dangerous is a simple night table. Turning these creatures into ordinary objects is the key gameplay mechanic, along with pulling levers, stepping on pressure plates, and manipulating the environment to outsmart your enemies.

    Creaks is quite a diversion from the typical adventure style by Amanita Design, but a smart one. Style and atmosphere are always top notch and the gameplay is more similar to true pure puzzle games here, with a sense of constant menace from the eerie setting.

    There is a world behind your bedroom walls waiting to be discovered -- a place of strange sights and dangers. That’s the premise of Creaks, a lusciously-animated game that takes one of the great primordial fears of childhood and runs with it.

    Amanita’s distinctive art style and wonderfully expressive characters, whose movements and expressions convey chapters’ worth of emotion, are as effective as ever, even if the ladder mazes and robot baiting eventually get to feel a bit samey.

The platforming is excellent and the puzzles are a challenge. I enjoyed the story even though it does lead to many unanswered questions, but you have to expect that with Amanita Design games. Expand

    One point subtracted because: the game could be slightly more complex because while the puzzles were quite imaginative and I didn't feel they were too few I felt like they could be a bit more & varied.
