You're not going to get much replay value out of Breathing Fear, but that's expected at its asking price of $5.00. It's best enjoyed in one prolonged gaming session, so it's more effective as a slightly unsettling way to kill a couple hours on a road trip…hopefully to an abandoned house in the middle of the woods on a very dark night. Remember to pack your batteries and alcohol.

In conclusion, Breathing Fear is an oddball game. Not fun but very interesting is the way I would describe the game. In my humble opinion this game is perfectly priced at 5 bucks and if you want one big puzzle disguised as a 8bit action game, this is the one for you!

It seems like minimalist adventures with limited mechanics and not much in the way of narrative substance, relying on a mix of trial and error, some limited creepiness, and abundant patience on the part of the player are a thing...

The less you see, the more you fear, thus beyond such minimalist an appearance, this intricately staged journey reveals a darker and crueler plot than expected.
