Blair Witch

So, I recently finished this game on stream and, at the same time, rewatched the first Blair Witch Project movie (1999). So now it’s time to talk about the game. Took me about 7 hours to beat it - and that’s with getting lost in the damn forest a bunch of times, ‘cause it’s ridiculously easy to lose your way in there. The game was made by the Polish studio Bloober Team - same guys behind Layers of Fear, The Medium, and the Silent Hill 2 Remake. And yeah, you can definitely feel the indie vibe in some spots, but overall, it turned out to be a really atmospheric, intense, and sometimes trippy experience. There’s way more content here than in the first movie. The film was basically people running around in the woods with some tense moments. The game, though, gives you a personal story, more supernatural stuff, and a bunch of freaky events to deal with. One thing I liked is the non-linear approach. There are two endings (maybe a bit more if you count minor story changes). I ended up with the bad one, which turns out to be the canon ending. Getting the good one apparently requires playing a completely different way — which honestly sounds like a solid reason for a second run. As for the creepy atmosphere, tension, and mind games — they nailed it. The ending hits hard, even made me jump a couple of times. Though, to be fair, I’d trim down the action in the finale a little. The jump scares and chaos get a bit overwhelming by the end, and you kinda get tired of it. If I were the devs, I’d balance that part better. But hey — it is what it is. If I gave the movie a 7, then for this one - since it’s a game and the criteria are a bit different — I’m giving it a solid 8/10. It’s got nice visuals, great sound design, an intriguing plot, and of course, Bullet the dog, who’s a total bro. Loved the interactions with him. Plus, you get a bit more lore about the Blair Witch universe, which was super lacking in the first film. As for the second and third movies - heard they’re pretty meh (4 and 5 out of 10), so still debating whether I’ll watch them… maybe for a laugh. Anyway - I totally recommend the game. You don’t even need to see the movie to enjoy it. It’s self-contained and explains enough of what’s going on by itself.

Had crazy low expectations but damn...i mean is not perfect and after all those years still has some random bugs like, conversation will not trigger to continue the story or walk into a rock so a few loads will be used, but the story and the setting is really good, also i was expecting just a walking horror, but nah the gameplay actually comes with interesting challenges at every turn more or less, all tho the game has the classic 'its a maze so find a way out' very often . Idk why they called it Blair Witch tho, doesn't have much to do with the movie, maybe was done so they capture more players into it. But if you don't care about that sure, go for it, especially when it goes on sale down to 4-5 pounds.

In my opinion, this is a good game, but it has some faults. It's incredibly short with one playthrough only taking around three hours to complete. Additionally, there is an absurd amount of collectibles that the developers just added to pad the playtime. Best part is the dog you're with, Bullet, and the atmosphere which really feels Blair Witchy. Give this game a try if it's on sale!

I love this game; it has great graphics and plenty of areas to explore. The story and characters are engaging. It often left me tense and on edge. I even jumped a few times, but it never felt like it was too much. It's a bit rough around the edges. I phased through a few logs, and Bullet got stuck running around one of the areas for like 10-15 mins. It's still a great game tho

Güzel atmosfer, güzel konsept ama sıkıcı ve tekdüze bir oynanış var. Köpek hiç aktif olarak kullanılamıyor; onun dışında her şey iyi.

It's a great ambiented game, not sure why some bad reviews. Not long, not short and trully a psycological horror story.

Game goes from being great to bad to great to bad. It does some things brilliant and some things either stay too long or are just bad. Good overall experience

There were a lot of things I liked about this game and a lot I didn't like. Some parts dragged on a little bit too much. Especially the end section. I felt the story was a bit complicated too. But despite that this was one of the scariest games I've played recently. Overall I enjoyed the game despite the frustrations I had. And I would recommend getting it if you can catch it on sale.

the puzzles are a bit confusing at times but the gameplay, sound design and story are great. there are multiple endings dont let bullet die.

For someone who grew up steeped in Blair Witch lore since he first saw TBWP in 1999, this is maybe the pinnacle of immersion from a franchise that has always immersed its fans deeply. Not only is this game completely reverent to the source IP but builds it up in its own way, adding to the mystery of it all. The gameplay is simple: follow the copious clues telling you where to go. It is mildly easy to get lost in the woods (which maybe is all the more fun for fans). It is a simple game that might take 6 hrs tops but it is atmospheric and engaging and I wish I could unlock more endings but I keep getting stuck with the same one. That gives this a bit of replay-ability (this is my 2nd time through). Overall, a strong but (too?) short game for survival/liminal horror fans and a very strong entry in the Blair Witch story.
