  Pros and cons are down below) If this review will be helpful, please drop a like so it can be helpful to other people as well) I'm gonna talk mainly about the new (4th chapter here). Here's the vid of gameplay that I'm gonna refer to a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S44OZGQrV4w (I COSPLAYED nurses so you can also check that out btw) + The visuals are amazing! The levels are still fascinating to look at and to explore. I'd say that the visuals and the ambiance only improves with each new level. Absolutely amazing. The level design is smart, you rarely get in a situation where you get caught in a dead end and most of the deaths you experience due to poorly managing your power or pathing. + Powers are fun to play with and the new ones are pretty good. I think mechanic-wise, it's a job well done. + The voice acting and character models are impressive. I love how interesting each character model and menacing at the same time. + Bierce has big booba. - Game breaking bugs and just a ton of annoying ones in the last chapter. In the video you can see I played through Torment Therapy and my game crashed 3 times and I died to recently stunned nurse. I'm pretty sure that the devs will fix all of that soon but that is very annoying after 2 (or is it 3 now?) years of development and waiting. - The pacing get worse and worse with each level. It's a fast paced horror. You wanna run, use your abilities and get spooked. You don't wanna sit through 20 mins of intro scenes that aren't even cutscenes that you can skip. Like going around rooms and pressing f to get out of them repeatedly or sitting through a song about fun town. Oh joy. I'ts cool to see once, after that it's annoying. I can't wait to sit through it all again and again trying to get Rank S on each level to unlock lore. I'd suggest letting players skip through all unnecessarily long intro sequences when they replay the levels. - Achievements are bugged too. I got the one for "avoiding dying to traps" when like 15/16 deaths were to traps (I'm exaggerating a bit but you get the point)... Overall: I'd say that the game is still impressive. The new levels are amazing, They get better, scarier, harder, pose more challenges and introduce better boss battles. BUT the pacing gets only worse especially if you want to 100% the game and replay levels for better score. I really don't know what to think right now after all this waiting. I'd say that the devs shifted attention to a side project really backfired as the more you wait the higher are your expectations, so after all that time getting barely playable (due to all the bugs) game is disappointing. I would rate Dark Deception 9 crazy monkeys / 10 cuz it's an incredible game but I'd rate the update 5 nurses / 10 until it gets fixed and playable (which I'm sure will happen very soon and I promise to update the review). If this review was useful, pls drop a like so it can be useful to other people as well :3 Check out my cospaly in the linked vid :3 Thank you for reading till the end and have a nice day!

  This review was made the day after chapter 4 was released, And I am mainly posting this in regards to that since I do not own the chapter 4 dlc alone. This may be an unpopular opinion, But the fandom in regards to chapter 4 is being a bit harsh. Of course there are going to be bugs, It just came out. Some might be game breaking so far, But the least you can do is just wait until a solution is found. There are plenty of things to do besides this game, And developers are bound have made mistakes in the code and face challenges regarding them. You can even figure out your own solutions if possible depending on the bug you're encountering. I understand that it may be frustrating to wait longer after it's come out after 2 years, But I'd rather wait as long as needed than complain about a buggy chapter. Basically what I'm trying to say through all this is... Waiting for this chapter for years and having it be rather buggy when it first comes out is ok. Everything is bound to be fixed as long as you're patient and not rushing the developers. I'm sure they've felt stress themselves having the fans bombarding them about how long it's taking to finish the game. No part of making a game is easy, Remember that.

  A good balance of challenging levels, interesting mechanics, and stunning visuals. This game encourages refining your technique, in order to discover each level's secrets. The story/characters are also incredibly cryptic and deep too if you're into that. Every level brings something new to the table, Dark Deception has a lot more than meets the eye. This is definitely not your average scary maze game! On another note, whatever you do, don't play this in the dark...first time I played, I think I sharted within the first 60 seconds. Heed my warning, mortal.

  I highly recommend this game it has big graphics its wonderful, And it scary and fun when starting up this game, You can also get the first chapter for free to try it so i recommend to try it out the chapter 1 and buy the rest of it if you like it. It's one of my favorites and will always be my favorite.
