This is a game that really shows that jumpscaring the player constantly does not work. The true part of what makes a game scary is the build-up. This game is so quiet, and barely anything happens most of the time. So when something does happen, it hits like a train.

I really dig this game. It is cozy until the horrors happen

[militarykobold]

I vote to start identifying this kind of game as an Isolation Simulator. With all the self-entertainment, weirdness, and eventual paranoia that such a state of isolation entails.

You should have saved for for the ANTI ALIEN ALARM™

In my personal opinion its so fun because of the extremely slow burn, it feels like a sandbox if you were stuck in survival and yet had the ability to still do whatever you wanted, and lastly, if the game actually wants to scare you, it can cause you get used to the routine of scan for signal fix satellite servers go to bed meet creepy creature, when it finally wants to scare you it brings you out of that loop by sending an extremely offputting lvl 0 signal or taking you bed out to the middle of nowhere north carolina

[RibbonsR]

the real secret formula of this games horror is it gives you a job, lets you goof off all the time, and then gives you the opportunity to go into that forbidden area that no one goes in at work

I can't believe VotV is really catching traction now with Charborg, the Librarian and now you playing. Thank you Dr. Nose, devs and based Vargskelethor Joey for creating this amazing horror game that is COMPLETELY *FREE*

That cutoff before the Ariral jumpscare

[NathanTruby]

I cant believe they made a game about the thing in your closet

[Harrythebotar]

I think the best way to describe the feeling you mentioned at the start is, your right. Its not fun. But its compelling. A bit of media does not need to be fun to be engrossed in it. It presents a mundane gameplay loop sure, but it clearly has enough bones in its undercurrent of what things are going on to draw you in.
Kind of like a mystery novel or a slow burn horror.

As a scientist, you can have your own Robot


think about it.

Last thing that happened to me while playing was I got a signal that showed the surface of a planet in red instead of grey, I got a paper mache alien trebuchet launched at me from my garage (probably an Ariral prank), I heard a guttural roar that shook my base, but nothing came of it, I hallucinated my base being in a pitch black void, and when I jumped off the perimeter I woke up at the security gate, but I had no stamina or food, luckily I found a circle of mushrooms, I still passed out anyways, I slept on the ground 'til I had fifty stamina and ran back to the base.

I discovered this game by pure chance thanks to the youtube algorithm recommending me a video about it from Spazmatic Banana.

I then binged all of the videos and joined the Argemwell Cult.

Funny, I just finished bingewatching Vinesauce Joel's playthrough of the game. This game is his personal hell.

[littlebabyman]

You know that quote from philosopher in the 20th century about humans finding enjoyment or fulfillment from the mundane? I think that’s what this is. It’s busywork but having something to do that isn’t overly repetitive but in still mundane can be calming or fun for some.

[whyyaskkwhyy]

I wish you'd play more of this on stream! I loved watching it

[lioedevon]

I think one of the funniest things of VotV is at this point it’s partially made just to fuck with Joel vine sauce. The option to pause being taken away during scary events literally seems to have been made to tailor to him. I would highly recommend his streams of this game, I don’t think I’ve even laughed harder than when he got terrified of Kerfus, which he bought and activated.

[PeterGriffin-sjmb]

I've been following VOTV for a while now, glad it's getting some more recognition!

[Nintyuk-AT]

This feels like a experience similar to iron lung but stretched out in to a slower burn

[realkingofantarctica]

I can't believe the sequel to Tears of the Kingdom already came out.
