The first person psychological horror title Dollhouse has just received a massive update. Indie developer Creazn Studio listened to feedback from the community and three months after the game’s initial release, has added two completely new gameplay mechanics and a variety of single-and multiplayer updates, totaling a whopping 2.9 GB of patches and additions to the game. The mega patch is now available on PS4 and Steam.
The two new gameplay mechanics include:
- ‘Tale of two dolls’
Trapped inside a sinister dollhouse, players take on the role of Marie, a former detective suffering from amnesia. As they try to get Marie’s memories back in an attempt to find out what happened to her deceased daughter, they’ll come across two new dolls that appear in each level. Finding one doll will grant bonuses and help make the player’s life easier. The other doll must be avoided at all costs. She always lurks around when she is least expected and if players look at her too long, they will get debilitated. - ‘It curses’
This new mechanic makes players choose who they want to cut or save in their movie. As players slowly recollect Marie’s memories, they are constructing a movie to discover the truth behind her deceased daughter. Players have to choose wisely who they want to cut out of their movie, as the ones they cut out will come back to haunt them. Each person that dies, will put a different curse on the player. On the flip side, whoever is saved, will grant the player bonuses.
Additional features include:
- Escape your pursuer as you decipher the eerie story of your past in Singleplayer
- Customize and upgrade your character with 40+ Abilities and Passives
- Scan the environment and see through the eyes of your pursuer
- Investigate procedurally generated maps, no restart is the same
- Murder wisely in online Multiplayer where each player has a different target
- Play with 14 different Multiplayer characters, each featuring unique abilities
Besides the two new gameplay mechanics, Dollhouse has received many bug fixes, graphical improvements, multiplayer updates and optimized gameplay, among others. All these updates aim to make for a completely new and pure horror experience.
