This is just perfect and more. The foreshadowing? The metaphors? The symbolism? The Plot? and don't get me started on how well the game puts you into the shoes of the main character. Scary, disturbing, dreadful, and some well placed jumpscares that do not feel cheap at all!
I love the subtle fact that you never actually ever see the outside from inside the house, or ever see the wife and kid ever do anything other than exist and speak. The length of the game is just right. I did stumble around for a while not sure what to do, but honestly, that really pushes the narrative even more because you're playing as someone who is also just as unsure what to do with himself. Also love how you play as the ghost that jumpscares you in the beginning because, well, because of the twist reveal!
I so, so, so love this. Since the title is "Dead Tapes: Fading Father" I hope that Dead Tapes will be a series and we'll get to play more stories. If this is the kind of thing and the level of quality that can be expected, then this will be an absolutely incredible horror series.
Dead Tapes is such a real game that introduces the struggles of alcoholism, verbal abuse, and what people think when under the influence. I love how horror games really get me, and the shocking plot twist ending! Please continue to make more games!

something something sins of the father. perfect use of video games as a medium to tell a story in an interesting way. great work
good game, quite a few good scares and interesting level design, messes with you in unexpected ways.
8/10 would def reccomend
You showed the harsh side of what people actually suffer behind the scenes.
