    Non-linear first-person gameplay lets you explore Grimhaven Orphanage and discover the characters who once lived there – voiced by Dan Bull, Chuck Huber and Raychul Moore, plus a multitude of other great voices from around the world - some of which we discovered through our global YouTube auditions!

    We call this ‘alt horror’ because it has no graphic violence, blood or guns. As the player, you have no defense... however, you must show empathy and courage to save the twelve missing orphans. This is a game for people who like to explore, listen, think and solve - and play cat and mouse in a dark and scary maze.    … Expand

    Huntsman: The Orphanage does manage to convey a sense of terror in its quiet moments, but they're more benign chills than you find in bloodier horror adventures that let you fight back or at least present enemies who do more than engulf you in darkness.

    This horror game is not finished, and what we get with the "Black Friday Edition" is really bad.

The game has improved a lot over the last couple of months with new features and bug fixes. There is even a free texture pack coming out.

    This game may not appeal to fans of run-and-gun games where you blow stuff up and are rewarded with news ways to blow more stuff up, but most people with enough attention span and a little intellect will get a lot out of this game. Not to mention, it's pretty cheap.    … Expand

    I don't think this game will appeal to many more "action" oriented gamers who expect to shoot their way through everything. For those intoI don't think this game will appeal to many more "action" oriented gamers who expect to shoot their way through everything. For those into stories, this game is very nicely done.

    Some game features need to be fleshed out more or I'd give it a higher rating but for an environmental suspense type of tension as you learn the stories.. Very nicely done.    … Expand

The game's concept is interesting, if a little lacking stylistically, but overall, I'm happy with the direction this game is taking, and it's a nice diversion from overly violence and shock-tastic games like Outlast.… Expand
