Our take on The Devil's Face
The shorter format keeps the focus on a compact horror journey, but gives up the extended campaign time some players expect. The story’s afterlife judgment and personal themes also take priority over a broader, open-ended game structure.
What is The Devil's Face?
Play as Jonathan, who enters the afterlife after a car accident, grief over his brother’s death, and a suicide attempt.
The story follows his judgment and the hell he has created for himself. This first-person horror game draws on an existing pagan sect’s beliefs and accounts from The Book of Demons. Progress includes solving puzzles and uncovering hidden secrets within an unsettling environment. The game uses jump scares and conveys messages through its story. Its creator says it is intended as a shorter, classic-style horror experience with a modern twist, rather than a game that takes hours to complete. The game may trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy; the store text advises stopping play if symptoms occur.
