WTMG’s Heidi Hawes: “The Mortuary Assistant is truly something special. I haven’t been captivated by a horror game like this in a long time. It has such creative and unique ideas that make it stand out from the countless other games in the genre. This game just proves what I’ve been saying for years, that you don’t need a massive budget and nonstop jumpscares in order to make an effective horror game. The Mortuary Assistant succeeds where so many others have failed because of its use of subtly and cleverly subverting your expectations. Even though the shifts might be short, there are multiple endings, several of which require multiple playthroughs to unlock, so there is a ton of replayablility here. On top of that, the scares are randomized, so you’ll never get the same experience twice. Despite its flaws, I cannot recommend The Mortuary Assistant enough.”
