What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Its mixture of environmental investigation, ingredient experimentation, multiple endings, unusual characters, voice acting, dark humor, and surreal imagery creates something considerably stranger than its straightforward mechanics might suggest.
He Needs His Medicine is a brief but memorable psychological horror experience that relies more on surrealism, uncomfortable imagery, and curiosity than on elaborate mechanics.
Voice acting also contributes to the presentation and helps give the characters more personality than might be expected from such a short project.
That said, the graphics are quite well done; it's the only thing I consider decent in the game.
