What players say
The flayed man is a short point & click puzzle game, and by short i really do mean short. So if you are here for puzzles and only for them then it's not a great pick, but if you are interested in the art style or the weird yet comprehensive story the it is great. Oh and regardless all above it's only 90 cents so you won't lose much if you buy it anyway

I don't usually write reviews, but something about this game specifically compelled me. It is a strange little game, and the whole thing felt quite surreal to play. I knew nothing about this game going in other than the Steam page itself. I am a big fan of niche games, indie games, pixel art, and horror; this game happens to hit every box. It is a beautiful game. The artwork and the character designs are gorgeous...
