    Horripilant is a flawed gem: its horror theme and atmosphere are great, its art incredible, and its foundational mechanics and loop are strong. However, the game quickly becomes repetitive due to poor pacing and a lack of substance, especially when it comes to enemy variety. While not the worst way to spend $8, I would personally recommend giving the game some time to see what updates may come.

    Horripilant is a solid, competent entry in the idle dungeon crawler space, but it doesn’t really bring a fresh twist that elevates it beyond the pack. If you love optimization-heavy idlers and you’re comfortable settling into a long grind, there’s a lot here to enjoy. If you’re looking for something that pushes the genre forward or stays consistently surprising, this one is more “good enough” than “must-play.” This is an okay game with a strong core loop, but not much that feels truly unique.
