    Don't judge Phobia - St. Dinfna Hotel just because it's an indie title. The game is very well crafted and with incredible detail. Despite some technical and story-tightening issues, it can be considered one of the best horror games I've ever played.

    Fobia - St Dinfna Hotel is a great survival horror game, that delivers a mysterious story, fun puzzles and an atmosphere that keeps the player's attention. It's the first game of the brazilian studio Pulsatrix Studio and although it has some technical limitations, it's a nice one for those who enjoy horror experiences.

    A great horror that packs most of the experience into its clever puzzles.

    Fobia St. Dinfna Hotel does a lot of things right but it falls just a tad short of matching the greatness of many other games in the genre. I loved exploring the Hotel and solving puzzles that are reminiscent of classic titles like Silent Hill and Resident Evil. It's just a shame that combat is not only boring but lacks any real challenge, and the story doesn't provide much resolution or explanation to what's really going on.

    Phobia: St. Dinfna Hotel is an indie horror game that draws its inspiration from previous, successful horror titles of the past while also having some good ideas. Definitely not for everyone, but fans of horror games (see Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Outlast etc.) will appreciate it.

    Fobia: St. Dinfna Hotel may not reinvent the wheel when it comes to survival horror, but it's an engrossing thrill ride nonetheless.

    Fobia – St. Dinfna Hotel lifts liberally from the best of the horror genre but its unsatisfying core gameplay loops leave you out in the cold. A nifty camera mechanic allows for some entertaining time-bending exploration and the game has a solid grasp on 2000s grunge aesthetics, even if the story at its heart is a little old hat.

Please avoid this game at all costs. I’ve seen games on PS2 with better graphics, not scary at all, literally a dollar tree Resident Evil. Voice acting is laughably bad. 0/10.… Expand
