    Maid of Sker has very strong visuals and the hotel itself is well designed. But everything else, from its gameplay systems to its progression and foes, is so weak and ill-considered that I can't imagine most people enjoying what little it has to offer.

    Maid Of Sker is more frightening when it’s not trying to scare you. The story, the atmosphere and the music are well-crafted enough that they would almost be enough on their own, but its obsession with chucking monsters at you ends up destroying a lot of that good will. Perhaps, in looking sideways at Capcom’s desk, Maid Of Sker copied even the answers it didn’t need.

    I recommend this game. If you like Outlast or Home Sweet Home Episode 1 or Araya or First Amnesia probably you will like it. MAID OF SKER isI recommend this game. If you like Outlast or Home Sweet Home Episode 1 or Araya or First Amnesia probably you will like it. MAID OF SKER is not super scary but tense. NICE GAMEPLAY - quite a lot and decently exploration + key items, solving puzzles to move on and possible backtracking - open world. Enemies are good for me, walking and chasing you in different ways, it seems like a random event (I love hotel, gardens).
    FINE STORY, GOOD MUSIC and GRAPHICS - so dark but adds a dark atmosphere.
    Normal mode - 8/10, Hard mode 9/10.

    3/10 - MAID OF SKER after updates (1.01, 1.02 - positive, 1.03)
    "The main culprit in the incident" is update 1.01 and the changes made there.
    - Normal & Hard modes v1.01 are funny compared to the previous version.
    - Update 1.03 - Adjusted player noise levels - I'm afraid here too.

    On Hard mode - 100% of the game and I got one hit from the enemy and I had 12 health bottles in my inventory. Generally the games got "disgustingly easier" Enemies/AI/Detection it's a joke.
    It's like Normal is no longer Normal and Hard is not Hard.
    Only the inscriptions in the difficulty level selection field remain.

    The rest of the fixes are positive (1.01, 1.02, 1.03)    … Full Review »

    Gostei muito da mecânica na situação do silêncio e uma novidade pôde colocar a mão na boca esperando sair uma nova série desse jogo.
