What a great appraisal. Thanks Techmash!

"The Séance of Blake Manor is far more than just a spooky whodunit. It’s a gripping, beautifully researched work of interactive folk horror that challenges, thrills, and immerses you completely in its world of clashing cultures and supernatural menace."

Just completed it and wept at the end. One of our pets died today & a deer visited my window during the finale. Fond places from my childhood back home came up in the credits. I'll probably never play a game that makes me as proud of my Irishness again, and that's okay. Incredible.

Video games man.

I reviewed The Seance of Blake Manor by @spookydoorway.bsky.social and absolutely adored it. Interesting procedural detective work, folk horror, Irish mythology, colonial subtexts and jump scares!! 👻

If you, like me, are a fiend for deductive narrative games (Obra Dinn, Golden Idol, etc) then you must check out the tremendous The Seance of Blake Manor (out today), which has become one of my favorite games of 2025. Only caveat is that I ran into a few nasty bugs www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATH_...
