    This game has a good story and some great puzzles. It also doesnt work, drops all game saves, and crashed my Ps4 over 10 times. Contacted ps network for refund, they said ' trouble shoot or restart your ps pro in safe mode'. So after waiting months, waiting a delay, and spending $40... i am left with a console crashing pile of trash. Avoid. These studios give indy devs a bad name.

You should all be ashamed to be charging for this unpolished garbage.… Expand

    Visuals glitches, blinkings and a big bug with the fuses that don't allow me to continue the game. It displays something like a line of code. That's a shame.

    There are few indie horror titles as awesome at catching that fixed camera horror game aesthetic as Song of Horror and even less that reach the nail-biting tension on display here. The constant fear of losing a character permanently is a kicker but it really enhances the experience, making each choice drastically more important. The visual design and story should keep players entranced as they confront the horrors of the music box mystery! All horror fans deserve this title in their library.

    Song of Horror offers a horror experience that will satisfy fans of the genre, as it offers an entertaining story and brings up some brilliant ideas, although it does not execute them as efficiently as possible, with a less than average graphic section that weighs down the end result of the work.

    Harken back to the late 1990's and early 2000's and the survival horror genre was enjoying a golden age in video games. Song of Horror emulates the greats of that time but, unlike those franchises which have since evolved with modern game development, Song of Horror seems stuck in the past. For nostalgia's sake, it's worth checking out for fans of that era, but otherwise it's a hit-or-miss experience that falls well short of contemporary horror games.
