Loco Parentis / 孤女咒怨

Spooky, I hate little girls.

This is the biggest pile of poop I've ever played. It's buggy and crashes all the time and i can't even get a refund because of Steam's bullshite refund policy. It's unplayable.

Shame, it looks like it could be good if the developers took the time to fix it.

A fantastic game with a dark story.
Very ingenious idea of ​​the game, you shoot, your partner lights up. A lot of teamwork to move forward.
Some bugs to fix but mostly very good.

bruh, it is SOOO buggy, it's unplayable.

I got ported out of the building and couldn't move anymore. I got a random black screen, which led me to having to force quit. The game couldn't restart and my whole PC got laggy - istg it's a full-blown mess.

please DO NOT BUY.

it's so funny game if you play it with a friend. but not alone.

Pros: Fun. Scary. Makes me scream. I can play and scream with a friend or family member (whichever poor individual that I'm able to sucker in to play). I don't personally care if some of the scares are the typical jump scare (sometimes life needs a little bit of the typical). Love the story line so far!
Cons: It can be glitchy. Most common one we run into is when we die, the screen goes black and it freezes. Doesn't happen every time, but more of a 3 out of five times. We end up going back to the main menu and restarting the co-op and it works fine.
I'd still recommend this game to someone that is looking for a linear scary story with not too difficult puzzles (so far).

Run up and down the same stairways and halls doing arbitrary tasks like shooting balloons or drilling marked doors with a drill gun. Random jumpscares are thrown at you while you do the tasks but nothing really makes any sense. It just feels like a mashup up actions to pad your time. After 30 minutes I decided to pass on this game. I didn't feel the need to invest time any further.

This game is beyond broken even after patches VR and normal mode do not work, VR mode my mate kept falling through the map, any time one of us died the game locked up and i had to Alt+F4. I will be reporting this game to steam as its not fit for purpose. Avoid at all costs.

Game is trash. Horribly optimized, cant even play with friends, you get stuck cant even move. Dont bother unless its like a dollar, cause thats all its worth

Litterally unplayable. Optimization is horrid and there are movement bugs where you just can't move and have to restart the game.

Another example of a great game with a ton of game breaking bugs. I suggest to anyone to not buy this game until the devs decide to fix all the problems or at least the game breaking problems.

I played this with a friend and we took 1 hour to complete a 20 minute chapter. We restarted about 5 times because of the problems we had and we stopped at the start of chapter 2 because an animation kept looping and I couldn't get out of it.

Ayoo this game is ass! go to the bodega and buy a chop cheese with a bev and save the rest of your money for your expensive ass bills

AWESOME!!! Been playing this with my friend and it's perfect for horror fans and puzzle gamers alike. reminds me of one of my favorite horror movies Stay Alive

Connecting issues in multiplayer, repetitive same ghosts and bugs such as endless keeping dying make this game bored. Steam won't let me refund even if I've sent my request twice and felt really frustrated on this game. So I decided to write down my complain here. There you go, your "Non-recommended" reviews and you're welcome.

Super buggy atm, cool storyline though. I'd wait until it's fixed before buying, not super playable atm.

I really jumped the gun on this one. I was expecting more. The entire game seems to take place in the stairwell and halls of an apartment complex. As one reviewer already noted, this definitely seems like it was intended for VR, which could explain the awkward controls and interaction.
Save your money for something better.

Despite minor flaws and bugs I really liked it. Protocol from the same guys (go check it out) looked more like a proof-of-concept. This is a fully-fledged game.
+Unique blend of co-op and horror
+Great atmosphere of a typical ghetto house
+Unexpectedly tense action with clean mechanics and nice puzzles
+Good looking for an Indie title (bless UE4)
+Story is surprisingly not dumb. Good even. VO is also solid
+Rapid developer support. A lot of bugs were ironed out in the first two weeks since release.

OK, there are some flaws of course.
-UI/UX is kinda messy both in VR and 2D. Developers are fixing the porblem atm.
-Some animations are stiff (but the game's budget is probably laughable)
-Still some bugs to squash

Overall, I'd say that Loco Parentis is way better than a lot of horror games out there, like loud trash called Blair Witch. If you're looking for unique co-op experience, good VR jumpscares or unexpected twist on the Horror genre, it's well worth the price IMO. Just be vocal about your issues, devs are really responsive and commited.

You can hold down the right mouse button to put the gun to your head, and then click the left mouse button to shoot yourself, but it won't undo the suffering you'll experience trying to progress in this game.

I bought this game pretty much on its release day and it's nice to see developers listening to players and implementing changes. Hopefully, they will keep doing that.
It's a decent indie horror, best (and sometimes worst) part of it is randomness. You may know what you need to do, but things will be in completely different places. Some scares still get me even after several times of seeing them, others are quite cheap and don't do anything, but horrors being very subjective game genre, it is not surprising. Plot is quite vague, but if you take time reading notes, you will see that there's something about it.
It does not have super impressive visuals, but since game is supposed to be VR compatible in future, it does not surprise me. It's just enough to sustain horror vibe.

This game makes you think about true love to your mom and in fact if you see a little red-haired girl at entrance, you'd better run away !!

10/10 little red-head girls

I had this one my wishlist for a little bit and was pleased to get the notification that it became available. I spent very little time learning about the game, because with horror games like this and Pacify, part of the experience is learning how to survive which makes it all the more spookier.

I jumped into COOP with a friend and while there are a few bugs, We've been enjoying it so far. One guys gets the flashlight and one guy gets the gun, and fck is it dark when there is no light, forcing both players to work together and stick together. We are through Chapter 2, and while we still don;t understand the story, its been good. Will provide more comments once we get through the game

Also, when you play coop, go through the door that opens when a player joins, otherwise the game will crash
