Abandoned by your friends, you leave for the day to tear up a new part of the mountains on your quad bike. It feels good to be outdoors. The wind whipping past makes you feel alive. You weave between the sparse trees. Then, a harsh pain across your chest. There was a cable tied between those last two trees! The bike keeps going, but you are stopped mid-air. Then you fall into darkness. You wake up dazed. There is a woman outside digging...but digging what? It doesn't feel right. You have to get out of here!
Discover the secrets of the town of Erusal, escape a horrible maniac, and get spooked by this epistolary horror.

WHAT WAS THAT ?
Story:
You play as a young man, who after being ditched by your friends goes out on his ATV to drive around in the woods, when all of a sudden you get ambushed by a crazed woman. You then find yourself in an abandoned mining town all while being chased by her all while you learn the town's history.
The story sucks plain and simple. I've found every note in the game and let me tell you that the story barely makes any sense. It's basically about how the women go crazy and wind up killing their husbands because "reasons" and people hate each other. It's honestly awfully bad and the ending is so bad that I will talk about it in the gameplay section.
Graphics:
Erusal is an asset flip. Pretty much a good chunk of the buildings you rummage through are taken directly from the asset store with literally no changes done to them. I've played plenty of Unity horror games so I spot these things quickly and this one is just as lazy as all the other attempts.
Audio:
Not much audio design, but whatever is here is poorly done. There's also plenty of bugs like audio effects stacking and that will make you go deaf. There are music tracks which are royalty free intense tracks, so it matches the rest of the quality of the game.
Gameplay:
Erusal is basically a walking simulator where every once in a while you get chased by a stock woman model. Her AI is both slow and stupid and can get stuck if you know what you're doing. She is essentially programmed to book it to you in a straight line so the chases aren't as intense as the game thinks they are.
But let's talk about the biggest thing and that's the note collecting. There's an absurd amount of notes for a game that's about 4 minutes long. There's roughly 50 notes or something like that you have to find to really understand the story of the game, however the first time I finished the game the game said that I missed a few notes and I should go back to unlock the true ending. Curious, but invested to see what the true ending was I went back and went through every house looking for the notes I missed cause I was playing while a friend watched. Then I found the note I missed and I found the true ending is a "Thanks for Playing screen". So it basically forced me to go back for literally no reason.
Verdict:
Erusal is insulting and a horrendous game. I payed 39 cent for this and I feel like I was ripped off to no end. So just stay away from this game as far away as possible.
Final Rating:
1/10
Pros:
N/A
Cons:
- Asset Flip
- Game tricks you into believing there's more than one ending
- Horrible audio design
- Buggy

As far as bad games is concerned, this one actually works. It's not good at all, but you can finish it. Also, the enemy is hilarious. Worth $2 for sure.
I beat this game in under a minute! Best game ever.

10/10 Make sure to pay child support.
I don't know who Jack Pritz is, but apparently he has a paralysing fear of women, including perfectly "normal"/good-looking ones dressed in regular-people's clothing. Basically imagine a character model lifted from The Sims, who walks around emitting a sound comparable to a dozen banshees caught in a windstorm, even with her lips closed. Terrified yet?
Add some graphics which would have been cutting edge somewhere around the time that Half-Life 1 was released, and sound effects even WORSE than Half-Life 1 (grass and floorboards sounding exactly the same when you run over them) - and, of course, absolutely NONE of the inventive storytelling and clever mapping which make Half-Life 1 such a brilliant and timeless game - and you have the masterpiece which is Erusal.
Oh, and did I mention that there are no discernible "stealth" mechanics, in a scenario in which you are weaponless and have to actively EVADE the aforementioned succubus in black jeans and stripey pink shirt? Gameplay heaven.
To top it all off, you can apparently complete this game in a stupendously short time period, but the ten minutes which I gave it was more than enough of my life wasted. I hope that Mr Jack Pritz uses the ill-gotten proceeds from this game to nab himself some quality psychiatric care, or failing that, perhaps he could have just murdered whichever girl slighted him and saved the rest of us the trauma of having to play this alleged "game".
Get well soon, Mr Pritz. Get well soon.
Verdict: 0.5/10.
(PS I had honestly no idea what an "epistolary" horror game was, so I looked the word up. Curiously enough, it DOESN'T mean "utterly worthless and shithouse beyond all comprehension".)
I finished this game in less than one minute.
