More about Demonologist
Players rate it 85 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 63 percent. Something recent has soured the room. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 30 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written June 2025 to October 2026.

-Phasmaphobia started this genre and they have completely ruined their own game -Abnoramlity was very fun and promising, only for the "great big update" to completely ruin the game by making it too easy and no longer scary - The Other side is pretty good, but falls way too short on scare factor -All the other ones I have played, but aren't even worth mentioning -Demonologist on the other hand, has been around a long...
I saw it when it first came out and it looked quite fun. Now it has much more content to offer and coming back to it especially with friends was a very nice and fun choice!
