Apartment No 129

Apartment no 129 is a frustrating example of wasted potential. The unique premise based on Turkish urban legends is completely buried under lazy execution and amateurish design choices. The game suffers from severe "asset flip" syndrome, with repetitive environments and illogical level layout. The gameplay is equally flawed: broken hitboxes, zero feedback on weapons, and an abundance of resources that kills any survival tension. To make matters worse, the console port is terrible, retaining PC interface icons and offering sluggish controls. A skipped opportunity that isn't worth your time.

It works reasonably well as a short horror experience built around an intriguing narrative premise, but it never really goes beyond that. In the end, it remains little more than a good idea.

While Apartment No 129 does a good job of creating an unsettling atmosphere, unfortunately it's a bit of a mess. Terrible combat, awkward controls, localisation issues and more suck the fun out of what otherwise could be a fairly effective horror experience.
