Locked Up starts very intriguingly: the gloomy atmosphere, curious plot beginning and mysterious events immediately draw you in. The sound design also stood out with a pleasant immersion effect, intensifying the tension. First impressions of the game are positive - you want to observe what's happening with the main heroine and how the story develops with her faithful companion. However, the further the story progressed, the more the lack of depth became noticeable. The narrative seems slightly underdeveloped and hastily advancing towards the end, while the conclusion itself leaves more questions than answers. Several minor inconsistencies puzzled me: [spoiler] considering the heroine was hit by a car It's unclear where she got the strength to not only get up afterwards, but also break glass, and then overpower a grown man.. and this is without even accounting for her having almost no strength before that. [/spoiler] Again I'll repeat - I would have preferred more detailed and worked-...

Nice and horrifying, this title. A short Visual Novel without choices, it reminds me of one of those old internet horror comics. I liked it. Go searching for mushrooms!
