    In Rays of The Light
    The very thing that stopped me from playing this game
    In rays of the light is a 1 and a half hour long first person adventure puzzle game where nothing but annoyance happens, youre alone going throughthisbandondedschool, no direction on what to do, but justlook around, find keys and codes.. that’s the game… it feels like there could besomethinghere.. somesort of    In Rays of The Light

    In rays of the light is a 1 and a half hour long first person adventure puzzle game where nothing but annoyance happens, youre alone going throughthisbandondedschool, no direction on what to do, but justlook around, find keys and codes.. that’s the game… it feels like there could besomethinghere.. somesort of payoff, but there isn’t… the story, the visals.. none of it is good… I stopped playing this game after I got to a point where you have to play a claw machine for a part in this games final puzzle…thatsbright.. I stopped playing less than 5 minutesfrom this games end.. why? Because this is a broken puzzle..
    ironically the very thing needed for a claw machine..shadows from rays of light.. are missing, making it nearly impossible to line up your claw for the finalpiece you need.. its guess work and the machine resets itself if you fail… and even if you do grab it, the machine will drop it.. and even go right through it if youre not lined up enough…. And I couldn’t do it anymore.. there was nothing here in in rays of the light to have me even caring to roll credits…
    this is a halfbaked game not worth your time..
    I give In Rays of the Light

    The game is not intuitive, I spent a lot of time to find some object and sometime you cant find. I am blocked for this. I stopped playing this game.

    A poorly executed, confusing, and unfortunate game that left me wandering in circles and having to look at play throughs to figure out where a random item was shoved. It is not a nice game, and suffers from frame right dips and weird sliding movements on the PS5. I do not recommend this game. I usually enjoy walking simulators but this does not compare to well done ones like everybody’sA poorly executed, confusing, and unfortunate game that left me wandering in circles and having to look at play throughs to figure out where a random item was shoved.

    It is a bit clumsy at times, but within ‘In Rays of the Light’ you’ll find a mostly atmospheric exploration adventure.

    In Rays of The Light is a masterclass in building tension and horror, all without slipping into the familiar tropes.
