    The game is a decent short game
    It tries to be super creepy but tbh it kind of fails, don't get me wrong, it IS creepy, but it tries to hard, you hear creaks all over, which is ok, but then there is the doors sound, even when there is no door moving or even doors nearby, you still hear the noise, it would be more scary if you actually heard it when a door starts to move on its onw

    Then you hear a voice calling at you, that IS creepy and was well made

    The puzzles are ok, there are some extremely easy, there are some extremely complicated, and there is the fact that most puzzles do not hold your hand, which some might think is good, some not so much, and there is the fact that you get peaces of a puzzle way before you can actually use them, which makes someone that likes to organize and finish stuff that he gets immediately a bit antsy lol

    The story is middling, could've been better but does the job, although there are some things that make no sense, but I won't add spoilers here

    There are some glitches(mostly graphic) here and there but there are not that many

    The ending is kind of underwhelming, it is like a Stephen King movie, where you have a cool development but the ending lets you down

    Overall for the around 5hrs you play, it is good

    I really enjoyed this game. Very authentic feeling horror. Not a lot I could fault it for really. I've played a lot of these PT copycat games lately and this is probs my favourite of the bunch.

    Очень крутая игра, учитывая что её делала очень маленькая команда и по большей части один человек (если я правильно понял). Респект

    This game is awesome. I didn't play a horror game like this since many years ago. The athmosphere is very good and the puzzles are very enough. The story is interesting. I recommend this game.

    The story of MADiSON is extremely interesting and the puzzles are challenging, yet doable.

    I would have given this game 10/10 if only it didn't really so much on jump scares which felt cheap at times. Then again, this must have been the scariest game I've ever played.

    Do yourself a favor and play MADiSON with good headphones.

    The game is just very horrible and amateurish. The developers also come across as very unfriendly. The camera sway in it is ridiculous and just shows they really have no clue about game development. It's also far overpriced. Just get Visage instead.

    Good Game in general, good envrioment, the puzzles are fine, but some items and things are just inconsistent, need get better in some things but is playable and enjoyble. And in one night you can get your horror dosis.

    To be honest MADiSON is one of the best horror games that recently released. It's got a bone chilling story combined with well thought out mind engaging puzzles. All that happens while you're being actively filled with dread that comes from places you visit in this game. The only thing that annoyed me a bit is the small amount of items you can carry.

    It's a very short game. No replayability.
    Very boring common walking sim.
    LOUD = SCARY is tired.
    and Too many bugs.
    Don't waste your money.

    As you can see from the reviewer name, its a rigged score.

    Um dos melhores jogos de terror dos últimos tempos, cabe ressaltar qualidade gráfica, designe de som impecável, ambientação sinistra, narrativa bem construida e envolvente, e puzzles bem interessantes(nesse aspecto só faltou boas recompensas).

    MADiSON é um jogo de terror que se aproveita do estilo apresentado por P.T. lá em 2014. Com uma história interessante e mecânicas que não trazem nenhuma novidade, o jogo consegue se sustentar graças à alguns bons momentos e pelo enredo. Os gráficos são satisfatórios, mas a taxa de quadros por segundo pode sofrer quedas em alguns momentos

    I can say that it is the best horror game of the year 2022. It gave really good horror moments, I hope the game will continue.

    Summary: MADiSON is an astounding success in the horror genre, especially for someone who doesn’t play many horror games (me). The game was well put together and delivered on the spooks, however some puzzles are rough to figure out and could have been a little less obscure.

    All in all, MADiSON is a good game but a mediocre horror. I have some serious issues with it, but I can’t dismiss the potential. I believe the next game will be able to compete with Visage, and I’m already waiting for it impatiently.

    MADiSON, developed by the Argentine studio Bloodius Games, breaks the mold and gets us into one of the best horror experiences so far this year.
