  • Summary: The Sorrowvirus is the story of a young man named Wyatt Heyll, who, from a very young age, has been stricken with a multitude of ailments, illnesses and diseases.

On the verge of death, his parents gave him a paranormal substance known as the Sorrowvirus, which contaminates the human soul; preventing it from passing onto the afterlife when they die. This causes them to fall to Purgatory instead, where they can heal and eventually return to life. However, every time Wyatt comes back to life, his illnesses and diseases return quicker than before. Wyatt's parents allow him to continue dying over and over while they perform research on organic particles found in Purgatory that may cure him once and for all.

    Wyatt, having died so many times, simply wants to let go; both his mind and soul are shattered. Your objective is to set Wyatt free from his everlasting torment. With four endings in sight, only one is the true ending, will you endeavour to help Wyatt set himself free?    … Expand

    If you fancy being completely weirded out by a deeply sinister and absolutely mystifying three-hour creep-em-up, jump on this one. I am super-intrigued to find out what Faceless is going to be.

As a result, we see an intriguing and compelling introduction to Faceless, complete with a fascinating soundtrack and a mysterious story. The timed aspect and lack of saves can be daunting, but once it has been played through the first time, you get to know all the ins and outs of the game's levels in order to blast through it quickly while learning new secrets along the way. I'm looking forward to seeing Faceless, as well as their future short stories.… Expand

    Despite the fact that this game is the first brainchild of the Watchmaker team, "The Sorrowvirus: A Faceless Short Story" came out as a prettyDespite the fact that this game is the first brainchild of the Watchmaker team, "The Sorrowvirus: A Faceless Short Story" came out as a pretty high-quality game.

    Of its advantages, I would like to note the following:
    + Dark atmosphere of the game that helps immerse yourself in the story of the narrative
    + Changing difficulty levels after each playthrough, which gives an additional heat of passion for getting all the endings (of which there are 4 in the game) and finding all the information related to the lore of the game.
    + Good and high-quality soundtracks, emphasizing and additionally creating the desired mood for each specific scene
    + Responsiveness of the authors of the game in case of any problems
    + For lovers of Easter eggs, there is a huge expanse here: carefully study each of the locations, try to do what is impossible in another game, and then, maybe, you will find something interesting ;)
    + The presence of several unexpected screamers.

    Despite the fact that the notes in the game are not given in the order of the events that occurred, the plot becomes a little more difficult to understand, but no less interesting for that. However, you may need a pen and a piece of paper to jot down all of the characters' connections.

    Conclusion: the game is definitely worth buying and enjoying its unique atmosphere! But remember: there are no saves in it, but it remembers how many times you play in it.    … Expand
