Pros and cons of KOWA-OTO app for iPhone and iPad

KOWA-OTO app good for

After countless searches through any and all of the horror games on the App Store, this is by far the scariest game. Gameplay is spot on creepy and challenging too! Great for a few dozen jump scares :)
There is nothing better than a creepy Chinese doll chasing after you! Great work!

Some bad moments

There arent many horror games on the iPod so I was happy to see a horror game that is set in a shrine. I just reaaly hope there are more like it with more things to do like weapons and different horror characters. It would be awesome If they added elements like fatal frame and the game kuon.
This app totally reminds me of Fatal Frame without the camera! Its also like the Silent Hill iPhone game. It in first person and you walk around a maze and hopefully ya dont run into a ghost. Basically its a "How long can you survive in this maze without running to any ghosts" type of game but I found it to be fun and entertaining! And for $1.99 its a steal!
This game is scary as it looks especially when you move and you hear the dolls footsteps everytime and when you just find it facing its back at you and it automatically follows you!!!! Great game!!!!!!
The use of your headphones left and right speakers makes you feel as if youre really in the maze. The game is unique and I enjoyed being scared by it . I hope that if they ever come up with headphones that support sound from the front and back that this game could be used with it for the ultimate experience.
I thought I would give this game a try. It was well worth it. As far as a action game, this is not. It is how ever a game that puts a tremendous amount of work in its environment. The view goes hand in hand with the superb sound, for a great feeling. If you let your mind go for a second, you do feel you are in the game. The sounds have a great way of making you feel like something is truly behind you. I would recommend this game to anyone who loved scary movies, and is up for a challenge!
This game is really good and Im a very big Japanese survival horror fan, I have all the fatal frame games and many other scary ones so I was really happy to find out about this app! If you like horror than this is for you. It is very worth the price too!!
