The Basement - Are You Afraid of Your Basement? ( Full Playthrough )

I don't know if I'd like to get stuck with Manly in a horror situation. On one hand, he's a horror expert so I would have a high chance of surviving with him. On the other hand, he'd definately leave me behind like he was going to do to the fellow mine worker.

Rewatch the beginning again, after you watched the video. Suddenly you feel really sad for the monster. His perspective; suddenly he in a different world, with a different kind of people. As we saw with the wounded miner, his appearance unsettles people. So what does the kid do? He hides his appearance fully. Just for the off chance that he doesn't terrify a potential friend. And worse; we saw that the spiders aren't under his control; he felt sorry for the miners that were about to die.

I appreciate Manly putting the Codename: Kids Next Door thing in my mind because it's all I can see now looking at the characters. The mechanics are definitely the best part of this game, though some enemy AI needs some tweaking like the water enemies hovering too much. I like the story for the most part, but I feel like it needed a stinger to imply the mom was just a puppet of the shadow creature. I fully understand her grief, but being tricked into sacrificing both of your children years apart because it could project your husband's voice a bit much. Also, it's a little silly that they just forgive the shadow creature for the mental suffering and harm it caused on everyone even if I would be down for a sequel that's just their roadtrip.

[@cartooncritique6625]

It's hard to hold a grudge against the Shadow Creature though. I mean, imagine how much of a confusing mind-fuck it must be to be thrusted out of your own world into a place that's completely alien to you. I can't imagine most people would react very rational in that scenario.

_That's what happens when you drill too deep_ You uncover things - and beings - you shouldn't. There was a little too much of a lore dump at the end & I wish he could've bonded with his sister a little before & both battled out. The mother's story was confusing, but I get that her mind was "infected" with the darkness of loneliness from that other world, especially since that kid said he never knew what family was. Interesting concept... but jeez, the spiders are always the worst ones!

[@kateajurors8640]

@@kateajurors8640 There was story throughout the game, sorta. But the lore came towards the end. There was another world they drilled into & that's what started all this.

Wow just finished it. I gotta say the plot reminds me of what executives at cartoon network would ask show runners for ideas on a new series to come up with. It's got that semi serious and comedic tone befitting a kid protagonist's adventure plot. My only problems are, how did the sister survive so long without food? If the brother lived his life never stepping out of the house, how did he learn how to swim? What type of a mother instantly believes a kid with a paper bag once she finds out it wasn't the husband talking?

[@cartooncritique6625]

Pretty sure the sister was kept alive by the "Shadow Kid" before she eventually embraced the darkness.

[@emilchan5379]

Woah I certainly wasn't expecting this to take place in a sort of post-apocalyptic setting. That's was pretty cool. But while I generally liked the story, I felt it was bit of a hit-or-miss in some areas. The fact that they were living in the middle of an exclusion zone the entire time does raise a lot of questions. Did the protagonist spend his entirely life confined to his house? Where does the mom get food or water? Perhaps the shadow being provided them? How was she able to maintain the house? I am surprised the military didn't know about them. Also is the special mineral they were mining of any significance? Was it the reason for all those monsters and mutated animals underground? Or were the monsters due to the darkness' influence? How much does the military and the world at large know about those darkness tentacles and creatures? The security officers were certainly worried about being the player's family being "corrupted". I wouldn't mind if this got a sequel to explain more of the story and setting. But I guess it wouldn't be called The Basement anymore unless the gang gets locked up in a new one. Still a pretty neat game overall.

[@nyanya2757]

The material caused the darkness influence I think.. At least mining the material did because the kid cause it I just assumed he was part mineral thing I guess. They probably don't know a lot if they don't know you can survive it. Plus they isolated it and never touched it again. Those might be mutated animals... It might not be the material but rather where the material was from.. that being the home of the monster kid.

And everyone alive after cinematic whose face we are able to see (security guys stay with their backs to the camera and have bodysuits) is pitch-black. Even while heroes are using the light to fight monsters, and kinda feel unsafe in the darkness, I was hoping for something scarier to be hinted at, even if never mentioned (and characters do not realize it).

The different shadow mechanics managed to be pretty varied. Over an hour of the same would have been tedious, but they let you start tossing matches and then a fan blows out the match etc. It looks like there are people on the outside, trying to keep the stuff inside the town in.

You are absolutely the best, you opened my eyes to the best games ever. Thank you.

That sound effect at 3:00 sounds just like the "screaming" setting on my Roland FP-90 piano! The low pitches sound exactly like that!

53:17 the "Wowowowowowoooow" was quite melodic ya know?

Manly: "Mamaaaaa!!!" My brain: "Uhhh~" Manly: "Just- Killed a man." Me: " *... UHHHHHH~* "

1:17:48 "And thats how i met my Ancient Eldritch Demon"

[@crimsonscarlett9904]

Imagine being a parent and giving birth to two children with flashlight eyes. Also, I completely agree with the whole; ???:"family, I don't know what that is but can I be part of yours?" Manly:"oh what the hell, road trip"

i dont have a basement how am i supposed to be scared of it

[@LordZanas]

Then, one day, you find a door in your house that wasn't there before. Made of old, slightly worn, wood that clashes with the rest of the house. On the otherside is a flight of stairs, leading downward...

19:02 Kid: 'see a corpse on the ground and get closer' do you have loot?

[@VueiyVisarelli]

It sure is nice of the monster to let you take a nice nap uninterrupted.

[@Hexe_19394]

As a kid I was afraid of our basement. that was because you had to go down the stairs in the dark and then you could turn on the lights. They took a few seconds to light up and those seconds were the worst...

[@HaraceHavoc]

Manly's voice work is so good, I honestly thought the voices were coming from the game.

[@momojamojamo3197]

Love the game but I’m still kind of confused ngl. I keep thinking about the one save room with the two beds (at 34:36) tho that had that wrinkled patch of wallpaper, like could Manly have done something with it? Would messing with it have lead to some answers? Ah I don’t know, maybe the game is purposely ambiguous and I’m just driving myself mad lol

[@Ziceni]

oh-ho i love me some horror when it's near midnight
