oh my god, beautiful game. I got a little confused about what to do after the cigarette and had to take a look at some gameplay but i really liked it. Good job!

Hard.


(STILL AMAZING)

I wanted to share my experience playing Blackout, an amazing indie pixel horror game I found here!!!!!  FULL PLAYTHROGH !!!!!

I love how she gained confidence in the end of the game when she saw her reflection, she's so pretty <3

Good game

Last game in the video!

I absolutely ADORED this game! It was everything I wanted to be, a perfect little PnC adventure with interesting puzzles, cute art and animation, masterful music and enough little scares to keep the tone. One of my favorite games I've ever played in my 3RG series! Great work FRESH team!

good job.

I usually don't have much patience for point-and-click adventure games, but I really enjoyed Blackout. I love the pixel art, and the twist at the end sold it for me. This game is something special.

this was an amazing game, super fun and I loved the little plot twist

I couldn't get the safe to accept my code.  My code was *6797#, I entered it several times exactly as is and the safe always registered it as incorrect.  Is this a bug or am I missing something?

This game is so amazing, it's now on my list of favorite games <3

Blackout ist ein wirklich hübsches, gut animiertes, kurzes Point & Click Adventure, bei dem man zwar weniger Rätsel wirklich lösen muss, als einfach Dinge einzusammeln die verdammt schwer zu finden und scheinbar auch darauf zu klicken sind. Ich hätte schwören können, dass ich bereits auf das Brecheisen geklickt hatte, was ich sogar mehrmals erwähnte, und dachte, ich hätte es nicht erhalten, weil es wahrscheinlich noch zu dunkel war.

In dem Fall habe ich wohl gefettfingert, aber dennoch wäre etwas entgegenkommen vom Spiel nett gewesen und das hätte mir einiges an herumirren gespart.

Es sieht wirklich gut aus, ich mochte den doppelten Plottwist und gerade zu halloween doch eine nette knappe Stunde Spielinhalt.
