Short ND game review: MHM
Message in a Haunted Mansion
Plot: ND arrives at a Victorian hotel to help a family friend help with renovations, as it turns out that total trash is happening here, and there are hints of ghosts to be present.
Characteristics: The characters are flat, dull and BORING! But the atmosphere hits hard, it's denser than Louis' stare. The first game that positions itself as a horror. Personally, I was scared of it af as a child, it traumatized me beyond belief. Roughly speaking, the mansion here is almost like a separate character.
However, if it were not for nostalgia, I would obviously love the game less.
Also I think I have some false memories of this game? But I remember seeing this ghost in this mirror. However it never occurred in my recent playthrough and I can't find any evidence of this happening. Please write me if that was true I don't wanna appear stupid -3-
What adds into the horror factor - and the reason I like the first 3 games - Nancy doesn't react much to anything happening around her leaving you alone with your feelings.
The music is ALSO SO GREAT OMG.
One of my favorite games even though I am not eager to replay it.
Score: 17.9. Recommended.
