Yomawari: possibly Japanese for "nightmare walking simulator."

I would still recommend Yomawari: Night Alone to any horror fans simply on the basis of it being unique, but if that’s not what you’re looking for and nothing short of a terror-inducing masterpiece will do, I’m afraid it’s back to Silent Hill 2. Until we do get that next genre-defining horror gem, Yomawari is a nice distraction that will hopefully be worked on to bring us something even more sinister and satisfying in the future.

A charming & scary 2D adventure full of Japanese elements & a great aesthetic work on its back. One of the best survival horror games for PS Vita.

This game is refreshingly frightening. Some may find the unrelenting trial and error frustrating, but I found the whole experience so immersive that the difficulty added to the tension. Death is around every corner and I loved tip-toeing around. Every new enemy instills a sense of fear that leaves you second guessing your next move. The final few chapters sort of paled in comparison to the rest of the game in terms of scares, but at that rate it's the haunting narrative carries the experience to a satisfactory (yet unsettling) conclusion.

This is a really well done portable survival horror, i couldn't explain the experience, but is a really great game, with several problems because of the way it was done, the main one being that it has almost no replay value, there are a lot of collectibles but just for the love of collectibles, so if you find it cheap, you should buy it, if not, be prepared to make everyone in your family play it to get your money worth.

I’m awful at playing horror games, and I’m always too scared to make any real progress. Yomawari creates a great atmosphere of tension and terror that rarely relies on cheap scares, and it was the perfect formula to keep me hooked until the end. If you’re looking for a good alternate horror game, look no further.

Halloween is right around the corner, and what better game to play for it than this one. The story is intriguing with the premise being something kind of fresh. The graphics are a marvelous combination of handdrawn and computer, while the gameplay is a little slow, I would say it is well worth the bundle pack

I still get chills thinking about my time with Yomawari: Night Alone. Whether it's a particularly scary moment that pops into my head or one of the many weird visuals that I just can't get out of my mind, this is a game that's going to stick with me for a while.

Yomawari: Night Out is the definition of survival horror, trapped with nothing to defend yourself with against horrors that await around every corner. Yomawari may be light on jump scares but the creatures, sound design, and atmosphere is enough to creep anyone out.

A very different kind of survival horror, that despite a few flaws is both scarier and more thematically interesting than most of its contemporaries.

Yomawari: Night Alone is an original horror tale that shuns 3D and hyper-realism to stake everything on the atmosphere and on the discrepancy between "cartoon" style and horrific themes.
