    There is not an ounce of atmosphere in the middle between eros and Lovecraft that should have characterized Lust for Darkness.

    Lust for Darkness is an erotic psychological horror that relies too heavily on the shock value of nudity and gore in a way that that isn't handled with any level of maturity or seriousness nor has the gameplay chops to back it up. A couple of cheap jump scares is all you'll really take away from this short budget title.

    Although it delivers an abundance of horrifying imagery, the indiscriminately gratuitous Lust for Darkness falls short of delivering a truly engaging Lovecraft-meets-sex-cult experience throughout its brief three-hour play time.

    Beneath Lust For Darkness' great atmosphere and creative imagery lies a very average game.

    Underneath it all there’s genuinely something interesting here – it just needed to be more focussed, polished, moulded into a vision instead of left as a loose idea. The gameplay and story need working on heavily in their own way. I’d definitely come back to check on a sequel but it would be out of wary curiosity, not excitement. Still, I think a lot can be done in this space and hope to see something special come from it in the future.

    Lust for Darkness kills the desire to play horror games.

    You could expected more based on kickstarter and cinematics. You should watch first 30 minutes on yt before buying.

    This isn't even a true game, more like idea to make money on telling people it's some kind of eyes wide shut related game. It's cheap and cheesy. I feel bad for playing this crap. I needed a shower after 2h of this game. Yes, 2h because you will finish it after 2h. It's bad, really. Watch on yt but don't buy!
    My rating?
