About the game
Uncanny Valley is a survival horror game that includes a mix of exploration, puzzle solving and a bit of action with a lot of optional story content. We're trying to preserve the old survival horror kind of gameplay instead of following the modern trend of creating a third person shooter with horror elements.

What players say
Uncanny valley its a great game. honestly, it is one of the best indie games i hv ever played. The story , graphics, constant feeling of fear,mystery and being stalked make this game unique. unfortunately, the game does not answer a lot of questions, plus its very short. you can beat the game in less than 20 minutes... The game has multiple endings, there are 7 different ones to discover DEPENDING on your choices...

Unusual 2D horror similar to games like Distraint, Home or Claire. Story is spooky, there's a bit of exploration and survival. Escape from monsters and feel the tension of being haunted.
Uncanny Valley convinced me from the first moment. It somehow reminds me a lot of Silent Hill. We play a man named Tom who is plagued by nightmares and is looking for a job as a night watchman in the middle of nowhere to pass the nights with work. Every decision has a consequence, there is no possibility to save yourself, which creates a new feel and the game has a high replay value.
Steam reviews, mixed to its ratio and rotated daily. Opinions are theirs.
