About This Game "Lumber Island - That Special Place" is a psychedelic first-person horror adventure. The plot doesn't lead you by the hand, only self-contained exploration reveals obscure history of this place and its secrets. Atmosphere is the most important aspect - you'll see no buttons on your screen; there is no inventory in the game, which provides maximum immersion aided by music, sounds and Oculus Rift in future."Back in 1970s, this island was known as the "Lumber Island". It abounded in rare wood species of the highest quality, which were sought for by the craftsmen from all over the world — many of them took trips to the island in person, to pick the best material. The island thrived on private manufactures and tourism... until deposits of oil were found under it. This finding doomed the island: its inhabitants were made to leave their home land, the wood was chopped down to the ground. And after the oil had been pumped out to the last drop, the island was left abandoned and totally exhausted."You awake to find yourself in a life-boat ashore an island, and the last thing you can recollect is having fun at a great yacht party. 6d5b4406ea Title: Lumber Island - That Special PlaceGenre: AdventureDeveloper:DeanForgePublisher:DeanForgeRelease Date: 1 Oct, 2015 Lumber Island - That Special Place Patch 8 Download So I got this game recommended for Halloween and while the atmosphere in the game is super eerie and creepy, the puzzles and bugs of the game just ruined the experience for me.I were multiple times able to run through objects and wall, and fall out of the map as well as the physics object were super weird. While some puzzles were really interesting and well thought out the majority of them were really hard to figure out and I ended around just clicking everything hoping to find something as there were not really much to go on from other than a few sound or visual clues on some of the puzzles, but those who did have the clues were really nice and seemed to be well thought-out.The game does also have a save decent function, and instead of restarting the game from the beginning it only takes you to the beginning of the level. The last level were pretty punishing as you needed to do certain things in a specific order or you'll get kill and restart the level from the beginning!The background music were the same 2-3 minute loop over and OVER again for the entire game, and it got really old fast and the few times there were a bit of silence or change to the music it was amazing.The main monster; while he were creepy and it did get me a few times, the hiding mechanic makes it so easy to escape it. Instead of the suspense of seeing the monster looking for you to seem to simply reset when to hide and the other "threats" in game were main cheap\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665jump scares.I will say the game is decent and I'd probably not be this critical over it if I haven't paid 5\u20ac for it, to be honest I've played better free horror games that had an equal 2-3 hours play time.I will however say the ending and the story the games tries to tell is pretty interesting and I've still not entirely figured out what it all means but I probably won't play the game again to find out which is a shame.Pros:Nice atmosphereInteresting plotCons:Music gets trivialBad Physics\/going through wallsMonster\/Jump scaresThere's better free gamesPuzzlesProbably wouldn't recommend this unless you're really running out of things to play.. Positive aspects: It is a well-made, beautifully little Indie horror game. It offers a great and diversified level design with an astonishing attention to detail. Furthermore: Creepy atmosphere with solid jumpscares and a \u201ctwisted\u201d plot. Please be aware of: It\u2019s very dark, no checkpoint system within a level, sometimes it is difficult to figure out your next objective and be prepared for playing hide and seek with Mr. Lumberjack with deadly outcome. ;-) So please don\u2019t get me wrong; it\u2019s a clear recommendation for all horror adventure fans!. fix this cursor bug on the main title screen!!!. WOW THIS GAME IS SO \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ING AWESOME! EVERBODY WHO LOVES JUMPSCARES SHOULD DEFINETLY PLAY THIS! LOLLOLMEINSCHEISSSACKISTL\u00c4NGERALSMEINSCHWANZ!. The game is dark and has a nice spooky atmosphere, however there was very little in the way of content to actually frighten players and frankly the story sucked. I completed the game in 3 hours. I felt the story made little sense and most of the written clues were in broken English. The apartment with the naked girl in the shower that does not acknowledge your presence was bizarre. If the two story lines were to represent a dream and cloudy reality, the creators of the game did a poor job. I really do not know what to make of it all.A couple of bugs I experienced: The game crashed when I clicked on the control menu.While running from the woodsman at the beginning of the game, I fell off the island next to my boat.. PRO: Nice short horror game. The atmosphere and the background musics are awesome and creepy, there are a few jumpscares that actually made me jump, the puzzles aren't too hard, in short it was really enjoyable to play. CON: I didn't understand the story at all.. It's too short but nice survival horror game tough. It's like the Grudge but instead of seeking vengeance over your violent murder, you just lost your fave shoes :(. I wish I could recommend this game+ Graphics, story (even though overly vague), and horror atmosphere are really nice.Unfortunatelly the gameplay and mechanics are very flawed to be an enjoyable game to play:- - puzzles hardly make any sense- - sometimes you die out of nowhere- - unskippable, slow, unnecessary and somewhat long cutscenes- - worst of all: there's no save so whenever you die you need to play the level ALL OVER from scratchThe team has potential. I hope they learn from these details and achieve their true potential the following games.. This game has kept me on my toess and has challenged me to my very peak. I managed to extend my powers of puzzle solving just like in the Frictional Games ... games. I love how it turned out and i can't wait to play more.
