Exmortis Part 1 - Good Fun-Scare

Turn the lights down and the sound up to get ready for Exmortis. Excellent horror point and click adventure made by Leffler Web Designs back in 2004 I believe. It's first out of three games which came out. The seconds one we already played here. http://www.darkhorrorgames.com/play/exmortis-2/

Feel like head in a microwave? Umm, not really hungry. Blood dripping on the kitchen pult is a really nice touch though.

As you can see, the cursor is pretty badly executed, as it doesn't change when you hover over clickable items. It remains the same all the time which sucks.

Exmortis follows the well-tried scenario which always works in horror: you wake up in the middle of nowhere, keep walking through the woods until you stumble upon an old house and than for some inexplicable reason you decide to go inside and do a little investigation on your own. Most likely quite the opposite from what any of us would do in a situation like that.

If you have time, read through the books you can find inside and you'll learn more about the true power of Exmortis.

Regarding the game itself, there are some pretty graphic visuals, but even without the gory details, the atmosphere is overwhelmingly grim. You won't a lot of jumpscares if any. It's all abut the vibe you get from this place. It's ambient, isolated claustrophobic and also a very quiet game. There's no music and the atmospheric sound effects make a hard to decide whether you should feel concerned or nervous, when it seems like you're alone.

The bedroom in particular is my favorite part of the house. Small and cozy with the low ceiling and ... the blood on the bed. The visuals are mostly just a bunch of old photos of creepy places with various special effects.

There's no way to prepare yourself for Exmortis. Go and check it out if you want good fun-scare.
