    First person perspective but no option to invert the Y axis. If like me, you've got years of muscle memory built up for inverted aim buy on a platform where the Y axis can be changed outside the game.

    The atmosphere of this game is really good. Not good graphics but that's not at all what it's about and that kinda adds to the eerieness of the game.

    Took me 2 hours and 38 min to beat and platinum. It was a good story and a great payoff at the end. Although I was left with one unanswered question.

    This game is definetly about the journey as you piece together what happend at Sagebush Ranch and discovering the conclusion. Decent puzzles to figure out as well.    … Expand

    Walking sim. Short and you'll feel that you've heard the story before. I have no idea how this got rated better than "the suicide of Rachel Forster", another walking sim.

    This game is criminally underrated, and it really makes me sad how no one's talking about it.
    The concept of investigating a ranch for a mass suicide sure seemed strange to make a game out of; but I'm happy to say they managed to make the gameplay work quite well.
    The game takes around 3-3.5 hours to beat (2-2.5 if you're not as slow as me lol) and fully explore. My whole experience with    This game is criminally underrated, and it really makes me sad how no one's talking about it.

    Also, getting the platinum trophy is super trivial, if it matters to you.    … Expand

    This game is exceptional. Not only it builds the atmosphere little by little but also slowly introduces the plot elements to keep you on edge. On top of that it is a great character study of someone who got involved with a cult. There is a lot of environmental storytelling and subplots about specific members of the cult. I really like the voice of the main character (Lily) on tapeThis game is exceptional.

I really like the voice of the main character (Lily) on tape recorders pushing the story forward. If you can forget that the tape recorders are a gimmick plot device that might seem out of the place you are going to have great time! The game is now for something like 10 $ on PS store. Totally worth your time and money!… Expand

    Sagebrush delivers on an interesting plot that draws you into the game. However, the gameplay is not quite enough to carry the rest of the game. It’s short length and limited gameplay options cut a bit into what was an overall positive experience. I just wish that there was a bit more to experience.

    It may not look like much, but it bets big on its ability to draw you in to a horrifying story — and, by the end of its short running time, it’s succeeded at doing that beyond any shadow of a doubt.

    Sagebrush's story isn't one that will leave a lasting impression and the pacing can feel off, but it is succinct, suspenseful, and on sale for less than a fiver, making it well worth your time if 90s cult thrillers are your jam.
