Best family simulator.

Before jumping in to this one fair warning as it contains Child Abuse and torture.

Masochisia immerses players into a disturbing narrative that delves deep into the darkest corners of the human psyche. Released in 2015, Masochisia continues to stand out among the plethora of horror titles for its unapologetically bleak atmosphere and thought-provoking themes.

The game's storyline revolves around a troubled adolescent named Hamilton, whose life is marred by harrowing visions and a dysfunctional family dynamic. As players navigate through Hamilton's tortured existence, they are confronted with a series of morally ambiguous choices that shape the outcome of the narrative. Masochisia doesn't shy away from tackling sensitive subjects such as mental illness, abuse, and the cyclical nature of trauma, making it a psychologically taxing experience from start to finish.

Visually, Masochisia adopts a minimalist art style that effectively amplifies its oppressive atmosphere. The use of stark contrasts and muted colors enhances the game's sense of unease, while the occasional splashes of vivid imagery serve to punctuate key moments in the narrative. Combined with a haunting soundtrack that perfectly complements the game's themes, Masochisia succeeds in creating an immersive horror experience that lingers long after the credits roll.

However, Masochisia is not without its flaws. Some players may find its pacing to be slow and its gameplay mechanics somewhat repetitive. Additionally, the game's reliance on shock value and graphic imagery may prove to be too much for more sensitive players. Despite these drawbacks, Masochisia remains a standout title in the horror genre for its willingness to push boundaries and explore the darker aspects of the human condition.

In conclusion, Masochisia is not a game for the faint of heart. It is a challenging and often distressing experience that forces players to confront uncomfortable truths about the nature of existence. While it may not appeal to everyone, those who are willing to brave its depths will find themselves rewarded with a thought-provoking journey into the abyss of the human psyche.

Overall I would rate Masochisia a solid 8 out of 10. While it excels in its narrative depth, atmosphere, and thematic exploration, it may not appeal to all players due to its slow pacing and graphic content. Nonetheless, for those who appreciate psychological horror and are willing to engage with its challenging themes, Masochisia offers a uniquely immersive and memorable experience.

First of all. I finished the game and I didn't get all the steam cards, wich I don't understand why.
What else should I do to get them??
I liked the story, it instantly gave me a pressure. The navigation in game is ehh for me.
Not too much puzzle in it. I actually remember only one.
It has some glitchy bugs.. or is it part of the game? letters and numbers blinking on the screen few times, when mouse moving.
Also it has a bug if you don't play it out by one sitting and you load the saved to continue, yuo lose 2 items from your inventory. And those are important stuff, but you can find them again.

That guy was a real jerk.

Amazing game that always creeps back into my mind and gives me a chill all over again.

The point and click elements are kinda boring and sometimes obtuse, but this game is really good at one thing : Unsettling you. From the environnements to the characters, and especially the end part, ugh. I've played this game like a year ago and i'm still thinking about it sometimes.

TLDR, if you wanna be actually really disturbed, play this. If you want a polished experience with a lot of thought, use your money on something else.

This game is one of the darkest I've ever played. From the eerie music to the disturbing art to the jumpscares and the moments when free will is ripped from you... everything combines to tell an artistic interpretation of one of the most predatory humans to ever live. The one reason I can't recommend this game is because of it immortalizes the trauma of real victims and their families. The actions you're forced to take to complete the game are disgusting. It makes sense given the character you play, but still, it made me very uneasy. Definitely not a game for anyone sensitive, especially regarding child abuse and torture.
