Hi everyone. I’ve been looking forward to playing this game for years, and am so happy it’s out. I wanted to ask you guys if you know it it will be on other platforms, because right now it’s just on Steam and GOG. I loved how the first one was through Big Fish and I could play it on my iPad mini, so I’m wondering if this one will eventually be released through them as well.

Thanks for your help,
Tracy

I have heard that the game will be released on Big Fish, but probably not until the fall. I also believe I recall reading that even though Big Fish players have to wait longer for the game, that when the game is released there it will include a bonus chapter that is not found in the present release.

Marian, Thanks for the info, I'll be waiting for True Fear 2 to come to BFG.

Definitely another game to look forward to!

When I saw this game on sale at GOG for $7.69 Canadian I bought it (most likely less $$$ for the US) , could not wait for the Fall, and I am very happy I bought it, it is a great game and a Very long one, I have been playing for a long time and I am still only at Act 2. This game in my opinion is better than the 1st one since there are No HOs to speak of, making this more like an Adv. Lite game.
There are 3 levels of play: Casual, Advanced and Expert
and 3 levels of puzzle difficulty: Casual puzzles, Advanced puzzles or Expert puzzles.

You can also Mix and Match them i.e. You can choose Casual Play and Casual puzzle or Casual play and Advanced puzzles or Casual play and Expert puzzles, and you can do this with each level, so this should hopefully satisfy all puzzle player.
Right now, I am playing in Casual play and Casual puzzles, the next time around I will move them one notch and then on another replay I will advance them both to the last notch.
There are 3 reviews so far at GOG and the last reviewer, Marko… pretty much summed it up the way I feel about this game.
Note: This game contains Spooky scenes and morbid scenery, so this game is not for everyone.
PS: Not sure how long the sale will last at GOG

Thanks for all that info, Starcom. I'm glad you are enjoying the game.

Well sadly I just finished this game, did not want it to end, it is one of The Best games I have played in awhile, if someone wanted to argue that this game should be rated as an Adventure medium game vs Adv. lite I would totaly agree.

Additional notes: When you click on Extras you get this explanation:
"It was designed to have 2 Extra episodes, one was absorbed in the main game making it a longer game (how true) and the 2nd episode ended up inheriting many subplots that we could not fit it in. We'll update this page soon with more information".

Hmmm... Does this mean that GOG and sellers will receive an update (free I hope) to this game when the extra episode comes out? Time will tell I guess.

Also, you can replay all the puzzles, replay all the Cutscenes and flashbacks, etc.

It is my understanding that the Big Fish CE version will have all of the extra content that is available. Hopefully other sellers will receive it as well.

Thanks, Marian!

I'm just catching up on this. I had forgotten there was to be a Chapter 2 of "True Fear: Forsaken Souls." I see it was issued elsewhere, a couple of years ago, but did it ever make it to BF? I just did a search at BF and got no result. I absolutely LOVED the first chapter despite how grim it was. So creative, textural and complex.

Reenie, it hasn't made it to Big Fish. I don't know why.

I ended up getting True Fear 2 from GOG.

Does anybody know if there is or will be a sequel?

Laurette, the second game was released a few years ago and is available on GOG and Steam.

Here is the link to the GOG download:

True Fear Part 2

The third game is yet to be released but is in the works.

Thank you, Marian.
