    The Sorrowvirus was made as a result of the team having their crowdfunding stolen from them, as well as Sony trademarking the Slender-Man, leaving them to start from the ground up. 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

    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

    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.
