[EGD] Quite Accurately Named, Unfortunately.

Hell's Chamber is a game created by chloredecollabs

When you see the title, you immediately think "man, this is going to be a challenge for sure!" The red background clues you in that there's danger so you're on the lookout for anything suspicious. You're doing good and you feel like you're making good use of your 6 minutes until... BAM, you're trapped.

And this happens over. And over. And over again.

Ah, but I'll come back to that. Let's talk about the game in general.

The plot is pretty unimportant. The game description says "I believe we've hit our worst", but there's no further explanation in the game or in previous games as to who is talking or who "we" is. All the player knows is that someone's got it BAD.

The game's main drawback is that winning relies heavily on the use of trial and error. There are too many places in the game where there is absolutely no logical way of figuring out where a trap is. Which path should I take? Well, it really doesn't matter because you'll probably end up trapped later. Really, and it won't be your fault.

Good points in the game are the places where you're required to decide whether your wingman is a sacrifice or a partner. Sometimes, having him tag along will even do more bad than good. I also enjoyed the creativity in the "spider chamber" (I'll call it that) and the "burning hall". The creativity in the various locks was decent.

However, in the end, the game verges too close on the edge of impossible to be enjoyable. There are too many places where you HAVE to lose health to pass and survival just isn't an option.

This game was decent. It has it's good points but only after the teeth-gritting frustration of trial-and-error.
