i will first say that when i opened malViolence, i didnt expect much. but honestly, the game itself surprised me. the mix of escape-room mechanics, suspense, and a slow-burn story that pulls you in the more you play. it’s definetely not action-packed or flashy, but it has a magnetism that keeps you very very curious.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I really enjoyed the art style and the characters of the game.
