I've never felt such fear before
khaledawab12 July 2022
I'm a fan of horror games, and I've played many before, but no game has frightened me like this before, not even a movie or series, there is a weakness in the story a bit, and some vulgar jump scares, but in general it is definitely worth a try.

This game is creepy.
merem118 October 2022
This game is pretty good. I liked it. The game is a scary experience and is a good one to play if you are a horror fan. I like the atmosphere. I like the setting in the house. The game is well made. The game does have some weird puzzles though. Some of them can be frustrating. The voice acting of the main character is pretty weak. This is a fun game that delivers the goods. A solid horror experience that has plenty of creepy moments throughout. The way the camera in the game is used is pretty cool. The music in the game fits well. The villains of the game are spooky when they show up. Madison is good.

It's not the hype, the game is so scary, it feels more like an ordeal

The only horror game that manages to deliver one effective scare, then the second one even more intense, then gradually increasing the tension for the other, and so it goes, until you have no choice but to take a break, because it's just way too fierce.

The only game that pushes things to the limit.

The scariest game to date guaranteed to give you a heart attack.

I'm frequently encountering stories - be it a game or a film - where you have a disturbing story, but don't have effective scares, or vice versa. Well this game succeeds in both aspects, but many of you will not want to thank the developers for that.

Seriously, I'm not the easily scared type and have discredited many-many horror movies/games, considering them far from being accomplished, but this time I paid dearly for thinking this will be just another serviceable effort. Right after the short warm-up, every scare it delivered was so genuine, I thought my heart would literally jump out.

Even when you think you know what's going to happen, it'll still manage to catch you off-guard and scare out of your pants.

With this game it's not just about the scares, the backstory alone is very disturbing and realistic.

Without any prejudice, I can say that Madison is the scariest game to date. It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to say it's so scary and hard in terms of the puzzles, it literally stops being an entertainment and becomes an ordeal. In fact, when you're stuck on a puzzle, that's when the game will try to take advantage of your predicament the most. Having you cornered, it starts a barrage of the most authentically effective scares you have ever experienced, leaving you yearning for a glass of water. Only on my third play-through I was able to somewhat trivialise the game, thanks to already knowing all the puzzles by heart, but for your first run, you're doomed.

If you are newcomer to this kind of games or think that RE7 was scary, be advised that compared to Madison, it will feel like a child's play, and the same goes to Visage, the puzzles of the latter, however, were extremely hard, compared to Madison.

There are some great horror games among my favorites that are meant to be fun, such as Evil within, RE7, Silent Hill: Downpour, Until Dawn, Alien: Isolation; and then there's Madison that aims to be something very different.

Had they made this VR compatible, it would've probably been impossible to play.
