Our take on Untangle
The focus on a single school mystery gives the game a concentrated setting, but it also limits environmental variety. Its first-person presentation and puzzle-led investigation keep attention on the story rather than on broader survival systems or a large explorable world.
What is Untangle?
Investigate Alisha's disappearance after being pulled into a distorted version of a former school.
Alisha was a high-achieving student and bullying victim whose death left behind a hostile spirit and a massacre of school bullies. The game presents a single-player, first-person survival horror experience focused on uncovering what happened and helping Alisha. Its fictional story addresses school violence and bullying. Gameplay takes place in the school setting and includes puzzles. Visual effects such as bloom, film grain, motion blur, and ambient occlusion can be disabled in the settings, although retaining them may reduce frame rate depending on the computer's graphics settings.
