More about Eternal Evil
Steam's global achievement data puts about 14 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 7.1-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 440 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 7 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written June 2022 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,422 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 343 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 47 percent of the 137 reviews written there were positive, against 75 percent overall, and those are 25 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 7.1 hours; clearing it takes 18, which is 2.5 times the campaign.

Don't know if it is my computer or the game. Got stuck on a door. Had my ammo and ink bottles suddenly doubled. Found out that I could duplicate healing items by placing one at the bottom of the storage, taking it out, and then it duplicates that last item because it is still selected so long as the player doesn't move anything and pressing confirm. Found that out by duplicating a key item and now having multiples...

Pretty fun RE clone. It has fun puzzles and some cool areas to explore. The aiming and laser sight leaves something to be desired, but an enjoyable experience nonetheless. All around pretty great game given that it was primarily made by one person.
This game is complete garbage. I played for less than two hours and became stuck in a door twice. Zombies walk through doors, get stuck in walls, and sink through the floor. Corpses violently shake and eventually fall through the floor. The game should not have been released in this state.
