What is the secret of making a real good horror game? You should start with something that looks totally safe and harmless, maybe even cute. Like an old kids show. After all, what kind of dangers can possibly lurk among those rag-sewed decorations and toy stuff? Don’t be so hasty to judge! Amanda the Adventurer will make your hair stand on end as you delve deeper into the cranky world of fun sessions, educational games and some jumpy horror moments.
Noting bode ill…
It all starts with this old video tape that looks like it’s from some kids show, you know, the kind where a puppet teaches you stuff. This one is called Amanda the Adventurer, and at first, it seems like nothing special.
But as you start playing, things start to get pretty freaky. Turns out Amanda has a dark side, and you have to complete tasks, solve puzzles, and experience some serious jump scares to unlock the next tape with another episode. Each episode reveals a little bit more about Amanda and her creepy world, and you can’t help but want to know what happens in the end.
And let me tell you, this game is not for the faint of heart. You’ll be jumping out of your seat at every turn, and the puzzles will have you scratching your head in confusion. But once you figure them out, it’s so satisfying, and you’ll feel like a true champ!
Twisted characters in an equally twisted kids show!
The characters are rather charming and contradictory too. First up, you have Amanda who seems to be just a regular, curious and sprightly girl at first sight. But as you’re getting to know her a little better, you find out that she sometimes has fits of rage that can have quite a destructive effect on her surroundings. And Wooly the Sheep, her trusted friend, is nothing easier. If you let him, he’ll keep whispering all the crazy quantum ‘our world is a simulation’ ideas into your shrinking ear, and beg you to snatch him out of this virtual reality torture. This is really a game that packs more than you would expect. So start playing Amanda the Adventurer right now and enjoy the VHS thrill!
