Apr 2, 2026There’s one major drawback that prevents Fear the Timeloop from being a great game: for some reason, the developers cheaped out when it came to voice actors. Whoever they got to voice the sheriff main character sounds like he couldn’t care less what he’s saying, and he’s in a rush to finish his work as quickly as possible. Every time the cop opens his mouth, you lose all immersion in the game, as he’s unable to sound remotely afraid or panicky about what’s happening. And that’s a real shame, because Fear The Timeloop otherwise is a very good game. It may not be my preferred genre, but I can tell when a game knocks it out of the park – and if it weren’t for its one glaring drawback, I think it would be safe to say that Fear The Timeloop did just that.

Feb 2, 2026While Fear The Timeloop has its indie blemishes and its gameplay can at times be unnecessarily punishing, it shines through with a unique premise and an interesting story. All of this comes together to create what is essentially a B-horror movie, where the game’s problems are more charming than outright impactful.

Feb 3, 2026Fear the Timeloop has solid fundamentals that closely follow the survival-horror template established by Resident Evil, while also serving as a welcome ode to the genre’s golden era. It delivers effective scares, a good variety of enemies, and strong level design. However, in its current state, the experience is marred by numerous technical issues and aggravating, game-breaking bugs that frequently undermine what could otherwise be a solid, if slightly derivative, experience.
