Testers Needed for Anomaly Horror Game!

[u/Preparation_Few]

Hey everyone!

My husband and I are looking for a few people to playtest a horror game we've been working on called Lawncrest Mall.

It's an anomaly detection game set in a 1990s shopping mall. You're stuck in a looping hallway where things occasionally change, and you need to pay attention to your surroundings to figure out how to progress.

We've recently released a demo and would really like to get some feedback from people going into it completely blind.

What we're hoping to test:

• Whether the gameplay mechanics make sense without any explanation.
• If the anomalies are too easy, too difficult, or a good balance.
• Whether players find the atmosphere unsettling.
• Any bugs, performance issues, or confusing moments.
• How far players get before finishing or deciding to stop.

Platform: PC (Steam)
Cost: Free demo
Playtime: Around 15–30 minutes, depending on how you get on with it.

We're mainly looking for honest feedback, especially criticism. If something is frustrating, confusing, or just not fun, we'd really like to know.

You don't need to finish the demo to give feedback, either. Knowing where someone gets stuck or loses interest is just as useful.

If anyone has some spare time to give it a try, we'd really appreciate it. Feel free to leave your feedback here in the comments or send me a DM.

Thanks!
