  • Summary: Its 11pm, and you are at the last house on your route. The lights are on, and the front door is opened. But, the windows are all boarded up and the grass is overgrown. It seems like a strange place to deliver a pizza, but at least, it looks like someone is home.

    You run to the front door    Its 11pm, and you are at the last house on your route. The lights are on, and the front door is opened. But, the windows are all boarded up and the grass is overgrown. It seems like a strange place to deliver a pizza, but at least, it looks like someone is home.

    You run to the front door since its storming pretty bad.

    Hello!? Your pizza's here!' You announce. No one answers. There's an eerie silence.

    You are getting soaked from the rain, so you hesitantly step inside the door and look around. The front door suddenly closes behind you. You just wanted to finish this last delivery and head home for the night. Now you must figure out how to get out of this stupid creepy house.

    Freely roam the house and try to figure out what is going on. Three dolls and a strange girl named Emily will also start roaming the house as the hours toll by. Stay away from them, but if you do end up in a room with one, figure out how to stay alive.

    This may be your last pizza delivery.    … Expand

    It’s genuinely terrifying and you will jump out of your seat and possibly drop the controller many times because there are so many jump-scare moments. While the controls could be improved, the game is still great.

    Sure, the game could benefit from some improvements, but if you’re simply looking for a creepy atmosphere with the potential to truly scare some of your friends that come over, Emily Wants to Play is sure to get your heart racing. and you most likely won't want to be be near any dolls afterwards for quite some time.

    It's just your average night. You are busy delivering pizzas like normal and hoping that you will get a decent tip. It is coming to the endIt's just your average night. You are busy delivering pizzas like normal and hoping that you will get a decent tip. It is coming to the end of your shift and you are delivering a pizza that was ordered online. As you knock, the door opens and you step inside calling after the owner to try and make your delivery. It is then that the door slowly closes and locks behind you and you come to the realization that this may be the last pizza that you ever deliver.
    As you explore the house you quickly notice that things are not as they seem. You find crazed, almost paranoid writings of a young child. You also find tape recorded messages from her parents. But you don't have long to get your bearings or figure out what is going on, because once the clock strikes midnight - Emily Wants to Play.
    Shawn Hitchcock has created a very creepy game that will prey on some of your most basic fears. SHK Apps has done their part by publishing the game and making sure it got to the masses. In this game you are not just trying to survive the night in a house with a young girl. You must also try deal with 3 of her favorite toys Kiki, Chester, and Mr Tatters. Each of these dolls is creepy in the day, but being locked in a house makes things even worse.
    Each hour you must deal with one more of Emilys creepy dolls, until you are trying to battle all of them at the same time as well as the disturbed little girl. Figuring out the way you have to handle each doll is a bit of trial and error. You will perish many times as you work out how to survive the night.
    The graphics in the game are a bit grainy, but that just adds to the tension of the game. They really went to town when it came to the sounds in the game. The creaking doors, the eerie laughter, and the skittering of footsteps will have you on the edge of your seat before you jump out of it.
