It isn’t an FPS, but a survival game, and it’s a fantastic one at that with a likeable protagonist and a decent enough combat system. The point is the story and the exploration and both are done perfectly, with the story unfolding superbly over time. It keeps you engaged consistently and keeps you wanting to learn more about what exactly is going on, like a solid survival game should. If you like exploring in a realistic setting, dogs, mystery, horror and puzzle solving, this is the game for you. You can tell this team put a lot of love into this game while trying to create something fresh and special. Highly recommend for any horror or survival fans. I personally loved Outlast, Outlast II, the Amnesia games, etc. and I believe this to be up there but looked over for some reason amongst horror fans.… Expand

However, some of the gameplay mechanics are annoying, the story overall does not come together as a satisfying piece of psychological horror, and 'soldier battling his demons (his ptsd)' is as basic as you can get anyway. When I got to the location where the ending took place, my mind started to race with possibilities for the conclusion (layers on layers of meaning, allegories on allegories, repressed childhood memories running parallel with the present... etc). Instead the ending lands with a dull thud and goes on for soooooo impossbly effin long you begin to question whether it's even worth it to finish the damn thing. Not helping the situation is that other than a few neat (if cheap) tricks, there isn't much else up Blair Witch's sleeve by then. Honestly it's closer to Book of Shadows, than anything else. I have a soft spot for that sequel, so don't take it the wrong way. It's just that wasn't what I was hoping for.

    It's okay. A bit boring is all.    … Expand

    As a person whose first game from Bloober Team was this, it is a good start. While not perfect with some of its buggy glitchiness here and there, and a final act that drags a bit too long, this is a solid attempt at a Blair Witch game that treats the source material with respect.

While not perfect with some of its buggy glitchiness here and there, and a final act that drags a bit too long, this is a solid attempt at a Blair Witch game that treats the source material with respect.

    Summary: It's 1996. A young boy disappears in the Black Hills Forest near Burkittsville, Maryland. As Ellis, a former police officer with a troubled past, you join the search. What starts as an ordinary investigation soon turns into an endless nightmare as you confront your fears and the Blair Witch, a mysterious force that haunts the woods.

    What I like about the game is how well the atmosphere is done. The visuals are amazing, and graphic wise, it's a strong suit. And you're companion Bullet is a nice addition to ease your anxiety in stressful situations. Story wise, it's great, investigating a missing 9 year old with tapes that are clues to his disappearance is very unique gameplay as well. Especially with the neat element of being able to MANIPULATE TIME with them, almost like the crime reconstructions in the batman games. When you encounter your first monster later, it can get really intense in the best way possible. With all of that come the negatives. Those being it is really, REALLY easy to get lost for one. And that is really frustrating! Sometimes you go in a loop on purpose for the story. But other times, immersion can be broken by one little invisible barrier. And it doesn't help when Bullet can't tell you the proper way to go when you tell him to 'seek'. Fighting the monsters can also get repetitive considering throughout about 2/3 of this 6 hour or less game, it's the same basic mechanic. They finally switch things up later, but it's in like the last half hour, which in of itself, DRAGS! It's almost like in the finale, it doesn't know when to end, and it's tedious and boring. Which is a shame, considering for the most part, the scare factor was on point. Not to forget about characters, you really don't care about Jess (Ellis' ex-wife). Sheriff Lanninf, cool. Bullet, awesome. Carver, good antagonist. Jess, pointless and doesn't add to the story at all other than just to be another tragic figure to add to the main character's life.

    While certainly not flawless, and the $30 original asking price is a bit much (I paid about $9 for it on sale), it is a good attempt for a Blair Witch game, and a solid attempt at a horror game in general.    … Expand

    Aside from everything, the main character's fighting with them because of what he lived over time, not giving up and they were able to transfer what was going on in their head to the game, but they took it too long.
    I don't think they can show much of the strengthening of his bond with his dog, Bullet, and the pain he went through when he lost him.
    I can say that I would have enjoyed this game more if the horror elements were reduced, the atmosphere and music were more intense, our most important goal was to find the child, and if it was a game based on research, not fear in general. I don't want to give the ending of the game as a spoiler, but it really didn't satisfy. When the game was over, I was happy that it was finally over. You know that the end of the game is approaching and you want it to end, but when it is not over, the torture it inflicts on you increases.    … Expand

I rate the plot for 8/10 because game have unusual storyline, but in the end we get several unfinished threads. Gameplay I rate for 5/10, because I got bugs, like watching on camera caused crash game, generally whole camera are bugged. Optimize that like enemy are very weak, and moment when I was going on path and the game doing loop. The end of the game gets monotonous. The game tells us that we have a influence on story and that dog alive, but for me they have done very wrong with this. There is no obvious choices, and generally we don't have any chances for good ending (according to the creators, a good ending). Summary Blair Witch is a strong game with story, but gameplay spoils immersion. I'm happy I played in that game.

Maybe the scenario was written like that, but waiting or searching for "something that you don't" know is pretty annoying. "Am I missing something, or should I just mess around a bit more for the hint to come". If the game was giving thrills in each moment you mess around the map, that would be better for a horror game. But the moments of the monsters were defined, and in other moments there was no reason to be afraid of anything. You just had to find your way through.

Расстраивает, что в конце концов никто не разжевал, как было на самом деле, так что догадки остались догадками, возможно, кому-то покажется, что так даже интереснее.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's an okay game from the studio who developed Layers of Fear, games, which I love. It has a simple, but effective story, but it's quite linear. It's literally a "get from point A to point B" game, but it's not a massive deal breaker.

    It has a sort of combat, which I like to describe as kind of Alan Wake without the gun. it's obvious they put it in the game for a change of pace, but would have been good if it was expanded a little.

    SPOILER ALERT:

    The part with injured Bullet dragged on for ages. It was like the devs wanted you to leave the dog behind for the bad ending. I wandered that looping scene for literally 15 minutes before the game took over and Ellis passed out.

    The last chapter in the house dragged on for way too long too. Those two points were really the only downsides for me.

    Interesting game, but if you don't like games such as Outlast, Layers of Fear, etc, then avoid. if you do, at least check it out. it's a game with multiple endings, but going through the game once was enough for me.    … Expand

Yes you will find clues our encounter spooky things while exploring, and when this happens the game is super fun, but you will spend just as much time if not more trying to figure out where to go next while you pass the same landmarks again and again. So if you're looking for something fast paced this probably isn't the game for you. I personally really enjoyed my time with it but I'm also a fan of the movies and am okay with the slow pace at times. If you're on the fence about it you can watch my video below, it's only the first 30 minutes so it will show you what you can expect without spoiling too much. But if you rather go in blind by all means don't watch it. Either way, if you're a fan of horror games give it a try. But if you're a fan of the movies, well you know. You'll probably really like it.

    - a partner in the face of a dog who is not stupid and occasionally suffers from funny buggies.

    - plot twists and his general message - but it's for me personally, because the developers of the game took the ideas that he himself had long ago laid down for his game.

    - a couple of screamers and then only at the end of the game.
    Minus the game:
    - wild linearity
    - The search team is almost completely useless - 98% of the time the dog finds nothing.

    - the general atmosphere isn't intimidating compared to "Layers Of Fear."
    - too long scenes that are more boring and spoil the atmosphere of madness and eerie.

    Juegas como Ellis, y a primera vista, no se nos da mucha información sobre el personaje. Ellis tiene su perro de compañía, Bullet, que descubrimos bastante rápidamente es un perro de policía que te dieron en un punto antes del juego, pero más allá de eso, nos queda preguntarnos quién es Ellis realmente. Tu tarea: Encontrar a Peter, un niño que está perdido en el bosque. Con su práctico perro policía, usted buscará pistas sobre el paradero del niño, con suerte conduciendo a su descubrimiento y aparentemente redimir a Ellis por una razón que aún no sabemos.

    Jugar a través de el es bastante sencillo al principio, y definitivamente se siente como un simulador de caminar. Eventualmente, te encontrarás con tu primer rompecabezas real, y aquí es donde comienza el juego real. Usted encontrará rompecabezas a lo largo del juego, y en mi opinión, estos serán las partes más difíciles del juego, muchas veces lo que debes de hacer prestar suficiente atención a tus alrededores, ya que si no estarás perdiento el tiempo corriendo en círculos y te dejará frustrado. Si prestas mucha ateción en el alrededor pronto te darás cuenta como resolver el puzzle, no es imposible resolver los puzzles si usas tu cabeza.

    Dicho todo eso, mientras jugaba a lo largo de las primeras 4 horas, me sentí intrigado, pero un poco aburrido. El elemento de terror no estaba realmente allí, ¿El juego era atmosférico? Sí, ¿Fue mucho de mi pensar que el juego se centraba en el terror? No. Para mi deleite, este "fracaso" cambia drásticamente en las últimas 3 horas del juego. El juego se vuelve extremadamente difícil de jugar en las horas finales, e incluso me atrevería a decir que era, a veces, casi insoportable. El factor psicológico se intensifica hasta los extremos en los capítulos finales, y me quedé muy sorprendido. A veces, no estaba seguro de si podía completar mi misión para terminar el juego esta noche. Honestamente se me metió tanto en la cabeza la sensación de miedo es extrema en los últimos capítulos.

    No voy a publicar ningún spoilers aquí, pero voy a decir que creo que debes de darle a este juego una oportunidad. Creeme que jugarlo hasta el final vale la pena. Aparentemente hay más de un final basado en al menos una opción en el juego, y tengo la intención de jugar de nuevo, haciendo la horrible elección de ver lo que le ocurrirá al final del juego. Pero no lo espero con ansias. La principal elección que tienes que hacer es algo que parece extremadamente inhumano si vas lo que yo consideraría que es la ruta "mala".

    Gráficos

    Los gráficos son exactamente lo que esperaría de un juego más reciente (2019) Si bien no son perfectos, estaba contento con lo que se presentó, y nunca sentí que el juego carecía en este departamento, presenta el terror graficamente de manera perfecta. Blair Witch es impresionante, no se puede negar eso. Todo el aura del bosque de Black Hills puede determinarse por la cantidad de luz y color del cielo. La transición es casi perfecta y profundiza la inmersión de los jugadores en la historia. Los enemigos son deliberadamente borrosos y a veces me preguntaba si realmente existían o eran sólo un producto de la imaginación de Ellis. Este desenfoque entre la realidad y la imaginación parece ser lo que los desarrolladores estaban apuntando y con los excelentes y hermosos gráficos, este objetivo se logró definitivamente.

    Sonido

    La actuación de voz es decente, pero encontré que el verdadero éxito destacado era la voz de las brujas en los capítulos finales. El tono psicótico era escalofriante, y sentí que me rodeaba, lentamente encándome y tomando el control de Ellis.

    *Este juego se siente como un cruce EXTREME entre Alan Wake y Outlast con el nivel de terror siendo más hacia Alan Wake. Me encantaron los dos juegos, así que este juego fue fácil como para mí.

    Mencionado todo lo anterior, este juego vale la pena para cualquier amante del terror. Me quedo con la parte final del juego es insoportablemente difícil de jugar, y gana en todos los niveles en este punto, como representan la casa abandona y los niveles dentro de la misma es perfecto y difícil de pasar. Representa el terror de una excelente manera.    … Expand

    A visually stunning, slightly above average horror that actually takes time to build atmosphere.
    The first half of the game is a gem [although with no replayability [more on that later]], with high tensions and fear of the unknown pervading you as you explore the woodland.
    The second half, lacking significatly to the first, throwing away tension for consecutively cheap jumpscares. And    A visually stunning, slightly above average horror that actually takes time to build atmosphere.
    The first half of the game is a gem [although with no replayability [more on that later]], with high tensions and fear of the unknown pervading you as you explore the woodland.

    The second half, lacking significatly to the first, throwing away tension for consecutively cheap jumpscares. And like a sneeze that won't go away, they just keep coming and coming and coming.

    The main antagonist could have been more of a threat throughout and they could have explored some more insidious and uncomfortable feelings with the player by doing this, however they dont explore that side of the antagonist. As a result they never felt like an actual threat.

    I encountered a few glitches, predominantly a certain entity getting stuck inside a house and being forced to despawn, but nothing game breaking.

    As a whole on the story I found it good but only because the VA was exceptional for the protag. There were so many themes crammed in at random intervals that it became hard to track what was going on or why. if it wasnt for my useless ability to remember an off-handed comments from conversations and quote lines to remind myself I'd have wondered what was going on and been completely lost.

    Replayability [as previously mentioned] was lacking as there were two outcomes ultimately and there appeared to be very little nuance to the player agency throughout the game, regardless of what you may have tried.

    As for collectables there is an overabundance and I have to wonder - why? You can pick up knick knacks as you continue your investigation and I dont believe they served a purpose at all. On top of the dog tags and pictures you have to collect in this densely pact forest it's a little concerning how much they expect you to be able to pick out.

    This is a: Complete once for fun and second for 100% kind of deal, where the second run through is supported by a walkthrough and painstakingly heading to every single location, nook and cranny.
    This is hurt even more so by the lacking player reward for agency at the end-game as it means that you'd have to play [what took me first run through] 5 hours of content to beat, just to make an alternative choice.

    To conclude;
    It's a good game with flaws and imperfections that weigh it down more than it helps. The visuals, and especially the sound design are stellar and really lend to inviting immersion. However, this is marred by clunky mechanics such alternating enemy tactics throughout the course of the game without disclosing that to the player. Excessive themes and micro narratives that derail the meta one.

    Having said that i still enjoyed myself, i understand the flaws and still had a good time.
    It achieves what your average horror game is trying to very effectively early on, but loses it's grip on that magic halfway through and stumbles over itself in the second half.    … Expand

    The forest looks really nice. Very realistic. None of the scares or monsters are cheesy. Overall they did a pretty decent job of sticking to the Lovecraft formula of "what you can't see will scare you far more than what you CAN see". And there are some things you technically CAN see, unlike the original movie where you never saw anything resembling a monster, but the brief glimpses you get are usually so brief or distorted that you can't really make out what you're seeing. Sadly that's about all that the game gets right.

    The bad:
    My biggest gripe with the game is how easy it is to get stuck. There's a small little campsite that you will be absolutely sick of by the time you finish the game because no matter which direction you venture off, it will eventually lead you back to the campsite. And I get it, one of the things from the original movie was that they kept getting lost and seemed to be wandering in circles. So bravo to Bloober team for incorporating that into the game. The problem is they abused this mechanic far beyond it's welcome. Walkthroughs provide the answers to get out of these endless loops but that's immersion breaking.

    Another thing I noticed was an absolute lack of sound. You'd think a forest would have crickets chirping, frogs ribbiting, the occasional hoot of an owl or caw of a bird, but nope. Just the sound of you breathing and walking and the sound of your dog Bullet barking, etc. along with a subtle, low pitched note that usually runs in the background for atmosphere. Perhaps this is intentional, maybe the evil presence in the forest drives birds and insects away, but that's never mentioned in the movie.

    There are some inconsistencies within the story as well, for example the missing boy is initially reported to be wearing a Baltimore Crows cap, then later it's mentioned as a Baltimore Ravens cap, then back to Baltimore Crows. The lack of attention to detail is disappointing. Perhaps they initially started to use Baltimore Ravens and ran into trademark issues with the NFL and forgot to change it. Who knows?

    I experienced none of the frame rate or technical issues mentioned by many, I'm running a Ryzen 7 2700X, 16GB RAM, 1070ti machine at 1080p. I was annoyed however by the lack of option to re-bind controls. You're stuck with the game's default keyboard controls, which made me switch to using a controller instead.

    I did encounter one really annoying bug however. This will be spoiler free, but there's a section where you have to slow walk for what feels like about 10 minutes. You can choose to skip the slow walk at the expense of possibly altering the story in a bad way, so I chose to slog through it. At the end of that 10 minutes a small cut scene played and then control was given back to me. Except I couldn't move. I had to restart the game, and it had not auto saved, so I got to do the entire 10 minute slow walk again.

    Lastly, I felt like they took the story/lore in a direction quite a bit different from the movie. I can't say much more than that without spoilers, but The Blair Witch Project is my favorite horror movie of all time so I was disappointed to see the direction they went with it toward the end.

    All in all it's not a horrible game, and certainly worth playing on a deep sale, just temper your expectations some.    … Expand

    The narratives biggest downfall was ultimately it probably should not have been tied to the Blair Witch IP. Outside of a couple little nuggets, there is one element that this game explores about the movie franchise dating back to the 1999 film and actually gives a decent explanation for it. That said if you were to remove those elements from the game and gave it a new IP the game would have ultimately been a lot better, If for no other reason than things would not be so expected

    Now personally I am not a horror game fan. They do not scare me. I have a lifetime of watching horror film too that contributes to the desensitization. That is probably why I was able to pick out the central hook of the plot by either the second or third chapter. Others might not pick up on it till later, but I think an experienced mind likely would.

    Mechanically there were some definite technical issues. Mostly cropping up in later chapters of the game. For example lost my dog in the fog but needed to give it instructions but could not find it, and ultimately I stumbled where the dog was supposed to be guiding me on my own and magically the dog appears, BUT the camera shoots (for the only time) into 3rd person perspective and I was without feet and a head, floating in air at what was supposed to be a critical crescendo of the narrative. Ruined the immersion of that moment completely. Later the whole UI disappeared and not like it had through most of the game where you were locked out of GUI functions. Rather no buttons could trigger their respective actions and I was unable to move forward until I restarted the game and all function return to normal. These are just some of the glitches I experienced but all in all they were not TOO terrible. Game probably could have used another 6 months for polish to work these things out.

    I will say that as far as level design goes they made one of the most authentic looking forests ive seen in a while. Only problem is that while there is a reason for it, sets are reused and carbon copied WAY too much. When you get into an actual building you will see some next level euclidean forged Whovian architectural design.

    Now I will say that Chapter 17 is absolutely friggen ridiculous. It is not in any sense enjoyable, it is tedious, it is drawn out forever and ultimately there is so little happening that you will wonder why they made it that long and not 1/4th its length. What is perplexing is that for most of the game up till that point the mechanics of the game were pretty cut and dry standard fare. They introduced a new mechanic in this chapter. Used it way too much when it should have been present in smaller doses in earlier chapters.

    Ultimately the game clocks in around 5-6 hours of content and realistically it could have been whittled down to about half that and if its price reflected its size that would have made for a good game. The back half is just waaaaay too padded to be excusable.

    All in all Its not a terrible game. I have sat and waded through far far worse than this. Its short run time does help forgive some of its flaws with pacing. You can tell this is an indie project and for that its definitely decent. It could have been more. Much more but in the end what you have is a hodgepodge of decent ideas cobbled together that ultimately the sum s not any better than any of its parts.. I would actually give it a 4.75 if I could because it just cant quite break the 50% barrier in my opinion. Your mileage of course may vary.

    I really wanted to love this but after finishing it I could just as easily abandon it out in the woods as I would to keep it. Take that for what ever opinions from strangers on the internet are going for these days.    … Expand

    This game is Boooooorrrrring.. If you like pressing forward for 6 hours while a game plays itself, you will like this..Sure ocasional you will have to press on something or lazily aim a creature, but it most walking, in the dark, while the annoying dog barks in a high pitched yap.. The performance of the game is even below average.

    What if Isaac Clarke has a Bullett on his side? Helping him to stay alert on resting corpses ready to jump on him? Open world games are still more and more and more popular. Whats I like the most is the music. Its like. Jason Graves low tonę /God of War groving. Graphic is great. Forest looks gorgeus.

    Blair Witch is a AA game like a prevous hit of the standard: Hellblade of Ninja Theory. Its much better now because I was playing of first Sunday of realising the game. Majority of bugs are fixed. The essense of Horror is of course very strong and its a first time when I play in open world horror.

    Up-and-down indie game.
    Luckily, there is the game for Gamepass. Then you don't get annoyed when you have to spend money on it.
    why? Because it's a bloated indie game that repeats 2-3 good ideas until it collapses. After 1 hour you saw everything.

    This is the most realistic looking forest I've seen in a game, very atmospheric, but the game has some awful frame drops at times. The first jumpscare hit so good but once you figure out how to tackle monsters there is zero challenge or sense of danger. The Blair Witch sticker is optional, this game would have worked on its own with a few tweaks. The presence of the dog makes the game moreThis is the most realistic looking forest I've seen in a game, very atmospheric, but the game has some awful frame drops at times.

    O jogo é bom pra caraleo Mano como eu posso começar
    A ambientação é excelente e a trilha sonora te deixa apreensivo a todo momento sem precisar de jumpscare aleatórios
    E a história é o ponto mais forte do game na minha opinião,eu gostei muito dos plot twist

    It's a great game, spectacularly applies the issue of psychological and emotional terror, I was impressed with the story, gameplay and everything, since it is a low budget game ... perfect for me.

    The game adaptation of the 20-year-old “found footage” phenomenon could have turned out very badly. But thanks to previous experiences of Bloober Team, the finished product is more than a pleasant surprise. The game has its issues, especially in graphic design or in the puzzle section, but the result is excellent. [Issue#298]

    More a psychological thriller than pure horror game until the final stretch, Blair Witch won’t scare you so much as drive you barking mad (in both good ways and bad).

    Even though the prologue is unexciting and finale drags on a little too long, Blair Witch’s atmosphere usually hits the right notes. [Issue#241, p.38]
