Horror Game Where To Save Everyone, Everybody Must Die trust me really 

Welcome to the Not Everyone Has To Comment Here Club, how Not Everyone Has To Comment Here are ya?

This basically is the plot of Darkest Dungeon - An old man finds eldritch abominations beneath a castle except this time he sees them and thinks: *Absolutely not*

I do love the subversion of the one old guy at the rehabilitation center being the one sane person surrounded by all those twisted creatures and finding out the truth, while still using his setting/background at the end to frame the whole situation from an outsider's perspective as "an act of insanity by this crazy old man"

Yknow I’m really glad they didn’t strictly go for the “old person is actually senile and does all those weird things for no reason” route. Like it can be interpreted that way easy enough but there’s so much solid evidence that he wasn’t seeing things. It’s nice the old guy is right for once Edit: I just like how they didn’t add that twist ignore my wording

21:05 I like Manly's attitude in insuring that the head-crab-spider was dead. More people should be like him.

In regards to the missing journal, bear in mind that it contained evidence of police bribery and corruption. That alone would be motive enough for the local police force to want to cover it up.

Manly: "Double Tap" Also Manly: *shoots dead headcrab 6 times*

Dang that’s one strong old man. He has Wolverine healing abilities too.

This game took "I woke up today and chose violence" damn seriously lmao

Seems like the "hole" puts it's young into the victims, when then causes them to act all weird and have purple skin. They then parasitize the body, turning them into monsters. Once the spider fully matures, they burst out.

There's nothing like a Manly bedtime story.

The aliens should have known , never mess with an old man with a shotgun .

"You don't need to worry about saving anyone if there's no one to save!" The old guy probably.

Oh this must be right before Bill meets up with Francis, Zoey and Louis.

I saw the journal dissapearing was a result of someone taking it to perform the whole thing again, just like the director. Not necesarily the government, one of the examiners could have taken it.

So... the last line "As such, the truth of the fire at the Goldworthy Rehab Center disappeared into the shadows." That line is next to the image of an new modern clinic, implying it's all started up againl

Finally, a game where the character ISN'T insane, and the things are actually happening

This feels like a reflection to the Mental Hosptials decades ago. A brutal place that does not give effective treatments on their patients.

I like this game. It's one of those rare games where it's not up to your interpretation. There is a clear cut answer. The protag was right all along

I believe the thing already spreaded to the mass population ie the journal going missing. That's why until his dieing breath he continued to say everyone must die and probably was taken out due to what he knew. But, Manly could be right it ended there and it was government involvement. Great game either way!

3:18 Nurse: Let me see what you have! Mr. Osborne: A KNIFE! Nurse: NO!

I like this type of pixel horror game. The duration's not too long, the pixel graphics aren't too overwhelming, and the story's quite straightforward. Manly should play more games like this.

I’ll be honest at the beginning I thought it was gonna be a time loop scenario. Like how the old man woke up and said “I had that dream again, everyone is infected” I thought early on that if you died the game would reset and you would “have that dream again” before having a second chance. Still a great game though

I liked the part where he said “everybody must die” and proceeded to kill all over them

I know that "Lovecraftian" is a buzzword thrown around way too readily with anything horror-related, but this seriously feels like a short story he could have written (albeit with a lot more of a video game-y twist, obviously). This is a very good game.

Yeah, the journal apparently truly existing and disappearing makes me lean towards everything actually being true.

"Horror games with deep psychological elements usually immerse me as well. Isn't it amazing how a indie dev can so deliberately take advantage of your own lack of imagination to completely throw you for a loop?"

i love when manly says "which is a horror game"

I played this game a while ago, and I never actually finished ( Got caught up with school and stuff). I remembered getting down that blasted hallway with the box and just couldn't get past it( The clown spiders, regular spiders, workers and whatnot were everywhere). I'm glad I finally get to see the ending from one of my favourite play through gamers. Thank you Manly. Have a good day. Edit, AAHHHH, I was right there at the end. Dangit. Good job Manly.

So the mission in this game is that “everybody must die.” How unfortunate is that? I guess you’re gonna have to do it anyway.

hey Manly, just wanted to say that I am very thankful for your chanel, because it helps me a lot. You see, I have always been a scaredy cat; I never liked horror movies, books or (most) games, spooky attractions, etc. Any kind of scary-ish thing would put me off, except maybe the more comedic type of it. Yet, I always manage to enjoy and go through my fears when I'm watching you play a scary game of any kind. It sounds silly, but the way you play them makes the horror bearable and even entertaining! Now, because of you, I can enjoy the genre without being too scared :) and for that I am very grateful. You are one of the best chanels that focus on horror stuff in my opinion, cause you always have a wide variety of games and just the way you play them is much, much more refreshing than the majority, since you do it with such determination haha. Anyway, all of that just to say that I love your videos and that you are great at making them, so, keep it up :))

Immersion ruined: in 1906 there's no way they would have used the phrase "Mental Health Rehabilitation Center" "Goldsworthy Lunatic Asylum" more like

The random falling heads always got me scared, Incredible work as always Manly

Wow a game that caters to people who like saving everyone and killing everyone at the same time!

“Everyone died, there were no survivors. . . An elderly man was found at the center…”

I tried to play this game but it always crashes on me, glad to see a full playthrough of it from one of my favorite RU-vidrs!

This game is giving me "The Last Door" vibes; a game series that is still near and dear to my heart all these years later. Thanks for playing this Manly.

But Manly! People die when they are killed!!!!

I like that both there was a real horrifying supernatural phenomenon going on but also the protagonist was definitely actually a homicidally insane old man. That’s my interpretation at least

initial reaction to seeing the opening. 'mental health centers were called asylums until the 1960s/70's. and "rehabilitation" is a more recent term, back in the early 1900s the concept of "healing" the mentally sick was one of 3 things. near lethal doses of lithium, electrical shock therapy and everyones favorite weekend pastime: icepick lobotomies

Local Old Man goes postal on eldritch abominations in a sanatorium.

One thing I do enjoy about this style of game is that it's pixelated enough to where you can kinda see what's going on, but the rest is left up to your imagination. Plus you only get to see these creatures for a short bit before you're trying to kill them, so that adds to the vagueness. I was also going to say that I almost wished they left the ending more vague, it just seems sad with the old man winding up in jail, but on the other hand this got me thinking. Why was he in the institute in the first place? Why is it that he could tell something was wrong and something had to be done? Did he know about such monsters already?

_Poor Osborne_ Two theories. He had severe dementia and imagined everything, including the dynamite that blew up the place. Or the initial alien infestation seemed to make everyone compliant and peaceful, leading the director to think it was a 'cure'. But of course, it wasn't. I agree - the missing journal made it seem real. Still, poor Osborne. Good job shooting!

The cool detail about this game is that if you just go on your way killing everyone and not read the document stuff you can't say the old man was sane But if you do it like how Manly did then you question was the old man just simply insane? Or is there more to the story?

I'm imopressed the old man could rbandish an axe at his age, having served in afghanistan in 1840 he must have been eighty, probably built like an ox when he was younger.s

_"Beasts all over the shop... You'll turn into one, sooner or later."_

Manly: *shoots the spider with a face on it seven times consecutively.* Manly: Double tap.

this game is awesome, I played through it some time ago. Gets a bit easier once you get the gun, nice to see you play it =]

Damn this game was nice I can already see a sequel about it. Either that the old man was experimented upon too and because of that he was able to regenerate as fast but didnt end up like an abomination. Maybe he didnt actually die but used it as a cover up after he found the government was behind these so they wouldnt track him. Since he is a veteran and all. We could maybe see a second game about it. Or that he died but you get to play a different person but this time the virus spread more and is more common in the government you find the notes of the old man etc.

The gore, retro pixel look and overall atmosphere reminds me of Gods Will Be Watching, one of the best indie games I've ever played. FeelsGood

The fact that the old guy was actually right and not hallucinating is really a breath of fresh air.

Another day another slay, Manly.

I’ve never seen any of your videos before, and today I randomly saw one recommended and checked it out. I gotta say, god I LOVE your voice acting. When you’re reading lines (at the beginning), it’s **chef's kiss** exquisite.

Damn, we all must die.

Oh, but whenever I do that it's "against the law"!

I wonder if the last fight accounts for everyone you didn't kill... like, the less people you kill, the more enemies at the end.

God I love ya Manly! Your videos make me oddly relaxed and happy. Your sense of humor is one of the best also. I'm so friggin glad I found your channel.

He senses THE PESTILENCE!!!

insane how much this Channel has helped me with my mental health,big kudos to you my guy for doing more than my actual therapist

great game, loved the graphics and the atmosphere. Plot simple and straightforward but still interesting. Thanks for playing Manly!

I love the visuals of this one.

Have we ever seen a game where it comes off as a horror premise, but is actually not at all? Like usually it's cute then suddenly jumpscare rarwr! but I dont thnk i've seen the opposite aside of : deathtrips :

This had a very Lovecraftian vibe, love it!

Thank you for playing this game through! I never have enough patience to complete it.

Oh, a funny trivia to everyone: Eric Blair(e) is a real name of a British author, George Orwell.

"excuse me I need to find clues" *chop* way funnier than it should've been

I love you so it voice manly! It's so warm and cozy like a fireplace!

Keep up the amazing work! 🤗❤❤

Love your vids please keep it going

...was the "I have to destroy a ladder to make a stick to reach something high up" puzzle intentionally ridiculous?

Surely the crime scene investigators could tell the difference between fire and dynamite explosions? Smoke inhalation and shotgun death?

Great video manly!

I really liked this game. osborne saying "everyone must die" before his death tho makes me think the parasite things spread outside the hospital too, which sucks. what were the meat bags for? dead bodies or?

The evidence disappearing and the insistence of "Everybody must die" makes me think that there is another ending if you actually kill every single character.

Seriously, play the first Skautfold game (Shrouded in sanity) its available for free; And its basically this concept, but fully embracing the bloodborne inspiration, mixing it with resident evil and anime (in a good way) There is a paid version, but all it has over the free one is allowing you to play as the boss characters, new game plus and a secret superboss. Edit: Also, its... technically relevant to current events... Spoilers. You're playing as the queen of england, in an alternate lovecraft/steampunk timeline; Recently deceased but brought back to life through foul contracts with people who know far more about the elderich horrors descending upon the world.

I forgot the name of the 1st person that the hole corrupted and i think that first guy survived and stole the old man's evidence so yeah i wish theres a part of this but you're playing as this john osborne's grandchild investigating what his/her granpa told him/her before his/her grandpa's death eventually finding out the truth and the 1st infected of the hole as the bossfight and the new root of the parasite and the previus hole as the former mother parasite nest

This was pretty good! This type of horror usually works very well the other way around, it’s hard to make a good comprehendible story but when done right it’s perfect. I can’t think of any examples but I know there’s some out there, you’re playing a game and are in perspective of the main character surrounded by monsters or some other horror creature, they’re being attacked and have to defend themselves from these monsters, but in the end we see from someone else’s perspective or we learn that there was some type of hallucinogenic that drove the protag to believe he was surrounded by monsters, but then we look back and see all the innocent people massacred. When done well it can be amazing, anyone have any games that are like this? I can’t for the life of me remember any but I know I’ve seen this somewhere or maybe a movie? Anyway this games not bad, had a good horror element, but there wasn’t exactly a plot or mystery to find, I mean obviously the people are getting infected and turning into monsters and we’re pretty much told that right off the bat, and it’s a stereotypical reverse psychology, normally you’d think “he’s a crazy man killing people because of his delusions” but it’s kind of hard to believe that, it’s not shocking when he kills the first nurse. Not saying the game is bad just my personal thoughts!

Hey manly I really like and love what you play One of those pixelated horror games 🎮

I love these games. There's something nostalgic about the graphics, and the music is legitimately haunting.

3:48 Bag jumpscare

*Shoots 8 shots* Manly: "Double Tap"

realized recently that sometimes I come to your videos just to fall asleep to you quietly reading dialogue. would you ever do videos just reading horror stories aloud?

I think you had to kill EVERYONE

God I love yo voice it’s soothing

Hmm I'm off work and actually get to watch your video the same day, let's gooo

Excellent video manly.

Nice gunslinging, Manly!

I really like this art-style of pixel horror games. Has a nice charm to them

Rate this game 6 sane old man with shotgun out of 8 alien tentacle monsters

The sound design on that gun is so good and punchy. Perfection!

The big guy made me think mister clean

12:34 jumpscared by a npc 12:44 its a dark vent maze 12:46 a another jumpscare 14:21 - 14:51 went to killing npcs 14:54 can't even fight a spider in a room 19:56 spider moment 20:34 darkness and shadow 20:45 you played sonic games didn't you? "It's not shadow the hedgehog" - MBH 21:02 hl2 headcrab but cursed 25:55 *You have alerted the horde* 26:49 -horde destroyed- 27:01 A normal -victory- ending

Old man who has insane regenerative abilities and agility destroys entire parasite nest with a gun which holds infinite ammo

Manly keeps killing the alien spider over and over again is the new esthetic.

This game seems pretty interesting and it also gives me the same feelings as some Lovecraft-inspired games; the whole insanity thing, people going insane, creeping horror that starts off subtle, and that tentacle creature at the end just screamed HP Lovecraft for me - especially the insane part and tentacles. The ending might have also had a bit of Lovecraft in it? I don't know. This was a pretty nice video, though. :) Been watching Manly for months now, and I think he's probably my favourite RU-vidr for both Indie games and Horror Games. He doesn't over-exaggerate with screaming or yelling, his reactions seem genuine and actually fit the moments; whenever he jumps, I usually do as well. He also has character / a sense of humour (The "empty like my soul" jokes, "A seeeeecret!", etc), and his voice is perfect. :D EDIT: Forgot to mention the 1900's setting, too, which I think is something in a lot of Lovecraftian works.

Cant wait to watch this after work 😖... So sleepy 😅

The gun is extremely reminiscent of the way Osbourne probably had to kill people in the war. Even the gameplay where players can duck behind objects while shooting their enemies is much like trench warfare. So it's either Mr. Osbourne is making use of his experience during the war, or he is having a hallucination because of his PTSD.

You keep saying inspired by Bloodborne. I think you mean it has Lovecraftian horror elements. An unreliable narrator, fear of the unknown, insanity with a splash of body horror.

"Shadow the hedgehog" ah, i see your a man of culture as well
