Jedoch wirft jede neue Antwort weitere Fragen auf.

Das Unglück am Djatlow-Pass ist eine wahre Begebenheit, die sich im Winter 1959 ereignete. Neun erfahrene Alpinisten brachen zu einem Trip in das nördliche Ural-Gebirge auf, der fatal endete. Die Köper der Wanderer wurden verstreut am Hang des Kholat Syakhl gefunden.
Russische Ermittler kamen zu dem Schluss, dass "eine höhere Gewalt" für ihren Tod verantwortlich war.

Kholat: Das Spiel zu einer wahren Geschichte.

Das Unglück des Djatlow-Pass 1959. Bei diesem Vorfall sind erfahrende Wanderer am Cholat Sjachl in Russland ums leben gekommen. Die komplette Geschichte zu erzählen würde den rahmen der Rezension sprengen. Allerdings ist dieses Unglück bis heute hart umstritten und es gibt mehr als ein dutzende Theorien.

Story: Die Story von dem Spiel wird von einer wirklich seeeeehr angenehmen Stimme erzählt. Es gibt verschiedene arten von Seiten die man Sammeln kann. Einmal das Tagebuch, dann noch Zeitungsartikeln und dann noch Berichte von den Wanderern. Weiteres sag ich nicht....Spielt es einfach mal selber, alleine für die Story lohnt es sich.

Gameplay: Das Gameplay besteht darin durch die Gegend zu laufen...Mehr gibt es nicht.
Man hat nicht wirklich was zu tun, man besitzt eine Karte + Kompass mit der man zu bestimmten Koordinaten laufen muss, tatsächlich kann man so auch das Spiel durchspielen.

Grafik, Sound etc: Die Grafik besteht aus einer wunderschönen Schneelandschaft. Alles wirkt sehr aufpoliert, man merkt das man sich mühe gegeben hat. Der Sound ist angenehm und erschafft eine schöne Atmosphäre. Eine Sache hab ich trotzdem zu bemängeln: Warum immer Wolfsgeheul? Man hört im kompletten Spiel nur ein einziges Tier und das ist ein heulender Wolf. Passt das zur Umgebung.... Ja, aber gibt es in einer Berglandschaft nur Wölfe...Hmmmm Nein.
Ich meine klar Wölfe passen zu eine Horrorspiel aber ich hätte mir gewünscht mal mehr aus dem Tierreich zu hören oder gar mal zu sehen, sind ja schließlich draußen in der Natur^^.

Horror-Genre 7/10: Kholat ist ein ein sehr gutes Horrorspiel und wird dem Genre gerecht.
Die Wertung hat Bonuspunkte bekommen da, das Spiel auf einer ungelösten echten Geschichte basierten. Das alleine gibt dem Spiel noch nen ordentlichen Kick. Abzüge gibt es aufgrund der, dann doch nicht so abwechslungsreichen arten von Hindernissen...Mehr sag ich nicht, aber jeder der es genauer wissen will....[spoiler] Das Spiel besitzt tatsächlich Gegner in gebieten denen man ausweichen muss. Beim ersten mal als ich von so einem Schattenboi angegrapscht wurde war es noch Unheimlich, leider fällt das unheimliche weg da, diese Gegnerart später relativ oft Auftaucht. [/spoiler]

Pro:
-Unfassbar gute Story.
- Wunderschöne Grafik und guter Sound.
- Wird dem Horror Genre gerecht, kann ich Horror Fans nur empfehlen.

Kontra:
- Schenkt der Naturellen Umgebung doch bitte ein paar mehr Tiere
- Dem Spiel tut die 17,99€ Vollpreis einfach nicht gut. Die Rezensionen sind daher auch zurecht ausgeglichen, da einfach viele deshalb ziemlich sauer sind. Für mich selber macht es das Spiel nicht schlechter, finde es trotzdem nicht Gerecht weil dafür die Spielzeit und der alleinige Inhalt zu gering sind.
- Achtung Bug: Im Spiel selber ist ein ziemlich fataler Bug. Bei einem Ort den man durch die Koordinaten auf der Karte besuchen kann, muss man am ende hin rauslaufen. Beim gehen um eine engen Gebirgspass fällt man einfach durch den Boden. Man selber Stirbt dann zwar, aber man muss dann halt alles nochmal laufen. Um an der stelle vorbei zu kommen muss man etwas Tricksen, ob das so geplant ist...Keine Ahnung. Ich habe etwas rumgeguckt und anscheinend existiert dieser Bug schon seit Release. Der wurde anscheinend nie behoben oder soll so sein.

Fazit: Ich kann Kholat auf jedenfall nur empfehlen.

---Dear Esther mit Horror---

Weiß, Schnee, Wind, Nacht, Monster.
Das Spiel ist gut, weil es geschafft hat mir Angst zu machen.
Sieht hübsch aus und ist sehr atmosphärisch.
Die Story ist nichts Weltbewegendes, aber unterhaltsam.
Es gibt wenig Spiele über Djatlow-Pass, deswegen ist es eins der besten und somit meine Empfehlung.

I would love to write a positive review. Most of the game is fantastic.
The story is mystical and the narrators do a marvelous job. You are to investigate the deaths of a few students hiking the mountain Kholat Syakhl. You find diary pages and notes the students wrote and try to unravel the mystery of their violent deaths. Very soon the game introduces supernatural things as an explanation.
And the atmosphere is the best part of the game. You walk around snowy and dark mointan passes, find abandoned houses and scary caves. Even if nothing is behind the next corner you still sh*t your pants.
The problem is: sometimes there is something behind the next corner. Don't get me wrong, the yellow shapes that represent the students running away in different directions to give you some clues where to go next are perfect. At some point a strange fog will kill you if you don't move. Also not a problem.
But there are some shadowy figures that kill you in an instant. I got killed in one playtrough and spawned in a dead end guarded by an enemy. He killed me every time so I had to restart the whole game. This time I took a differend path in the beginning and reached a point where I had one enemy in front of me, one to the side and one behind me. It was impossible to escape them.
Hide? No, they kill me. Run? No, they kill me. Sneak? No, they kill me.
Again I would have to start again but to be honest: I lost interest in finishing the game. Which is sad cause the rest of the game is just awesome. In the discussions the problem of the enemies was also mentioned and the developers were open to the idea of implementing a mode without them - but since then nothing was ever mentioned again. With this mode I would 100% recommend the game.
The enemies sadly ruined the game for me.

I've tried two different times to get into this game and just couldn't. Not to mention the distance between check points means that once you die you could have to do quite a bit over. I wanted to like it but it failed to draw me in.

Whoever did the sound for this deserves a raise...I was shitting myself the whole time. At first the map and compass put me off, but it ended up being extremely satisfying to have my effort rewarded by finding a location. I found the Brit accents very jarring given the setting, but otherwise a great game for a gloomy winter evening. Clocked in just under 5 hours.

This game is simply amazing. Graphics are beautiful, music is amazing and fitting for mysterious and eerie atmosphere of the game, of course narration by Sean Bean is great. It also doesn't hurt that it is based on true event known as Dyatlov Pass incident. I enjoyed the game's focus on exploration and collecting notes and evidence to find out what has occured on this mountain shrouded with tales of strange orange mist and ghosts as well as secret government experiments on prisoners. I recommend it to everyone. Game is 10/10.

For as much walking that is required with little guidance on where to go outside of endless pathways, it heavily breaks the immersion of the story for there to be death traps that kill you off. I get the game wanted to make things challenging but dying and having to restart sections due to hidden traps completely ruined the pacing of the story to me and removed my care for finishing it.

The true horror of Kholat isn't embodied in its haunting, based on real-life events, story, or dripping of hopelessness and existential ache voice of the confused narrator, not by an immersive scenery with just enough dose of spookiness thrown in or eerie yet graceful soundtrack. Not even in the unknown threats stalking upon you, their prey, until you're at their mercy.

No. The true remorseless monster haunting this game, its worst enemy, in fact, is its navigation design. Some would say that the virtually impossible to navigate path through the purgatory of a tortured soul is exactly the point creators were trying to make. Well. I'd argue that when you're trapped in one location for about one-third amount of your entire gameplay time, it tends to take away from the overall experience.

I somehow enjoyed this much more than I thought I would. There isn't a lot to it gameplay-wise. It is indeed a walking simulator all about exploration. It's creepy and the story was really interesting. The atmosphere is what really kept me going, everything about it felt just right. It's not some action packed shooter but if you are ok with that you will definitely find a very neat experience in this one!

Frustrating and ultimately maddening because there's literally no rhyme or reason for what kills you. None of it makes sense, why are there spike traps in the woods? Why do flame atronachs from skyrim hunt you down and kill you? No reason, just because.

I didn't know I had a flashlight until I accidentally hit the F key. I didn't know I had a compass until over an hour in and I accidentally hit the c key. I'm all for mysterious walking simulators, but there comes a point where not explaining jack shit just makes things frustrating and ultimately not fun.

Don't waste your time on this game. It's a frustrating walking simulator with arbitrary rules that don't make any sense, with virtually no pay off. It's not scary, it's just stupid. I'm really unsure how this qualifies as a 'game' worthy of release on multiple platforms (like the switch). Go play Dear Esther if you want a good walking simulator that won't frustrate the hell out of you.

If I had actually paid the asking price for this game (20 bucks) I'd be pretty pissed.

Kholat is a game based on a really interesting real life event. The thing that sucks about Kholat is that the ridiculous amount of lore pages strewn about and the very loose connection to the actual real life event are not great. The're the least captivating and worst part of the game. The things Kholat has going for it is the soundtrack, atmosphere, and the fact that it's based on the Dyatlov Pass Incident. It's best to honestly watch a playthrough of this or buy it when it goes on sale, or even better yet, read articles about the real life event. It's alright at best.

It's SO RUSSIAN. Desperate and empty, and you are welcome. Negative reviews complaining bout pointlessly meandering frozen hell....are not inaccurate, but if that is your thing (I see you The Long Dark), how else do you live the truth of this based on a true story tale? I don't think anyone was mislead here about the gameplay. But I'm a huge DMV simlulator fan. That's me. I'm so deep. And then a glowing humanoid transdimensional entity just molests you and you are dead. *SPOILER ALERT*. 20 dollars. Should be a free feeder demo. I don't know how I got it. Must have been a penny based on curiosity, and love of the type.

SUMMARY:
The graphics/atmosphere are BEYOND top-notch, but this serves only to trick you, and hide a clunky, complicated mess of a game that works against you as you're trying to enjoy it.

SCHADENFREUDE: MY EXPERIENCE PLAYING KHOLAT:
Got plopped next to some trains with no instructions or context. Walked around and found nothing. Had to look at a guide. The trains and whole town were a joke - you're supposed to find an obscure path in the woods. Next part is a whiteout snow storm. Got lost because well, I couldn't see. Had to look at a guide again. Got to the tent and walked around in the woods, found a house, and fell into a spike trap. Who put a spike trap there, the ghosts wandering around??? Then I got killed by a fire monster(???). Then I got killed by it again. And then a third time. (I'm skeptical this is how the Dyatlov Pass Incident occurred.) Then I gave up on that house and left. Then I realized something really fun: There's nothing on the map indicating your position. I got lost and without knowing where I was, the compass (which the developers were too lazy to translate from Кириллица) is useless. Around this same time I learned that the voiceovers for notes you find, not only play when you FIND notes, but every single time you re-open them as well. This may seem like a small complaint, but I believe it speaks a lot to how clunky the game is under the surface. I found another tent, but by that point I didn't care anymore and I was starting to get a headache. I went to the big radio tower. It stands out a lot - clearly they want me to go there, right? Everything there was empty and seemed to lead to a dead end. Was it a dead end? Did I miss something? I don't care enough to find out. It also has a stamina meter, so include a few minutes of walking/crawling between every single event written here.

I got it during a sale for around $4.50 and it was too much... Asking $19.99 is an insult to players.

Played this game blind, I thought the game would get interesting, but sadly I got really bored halfway trough, scared me a little here and there with the sudden loud noises but mostly just a walking sim (there is ALOT of walking), with waypoints, compass and map. My head was going like... HOLD SHIFT THE VIDEO GAME! I guess it's really not for me.

I really wanted to like this game. It has a fascinating premise, and it was so close to delivering. The graphics are beautiful, the game runs smoothly, the soundtrack is excellent. And best of all, it's actually scary (when played in total darkness, with headphones).

Now for the things that weren't so great.

The first was that there's no tutorial. You will be dropped in the middle of a large, snowy, overgrown forest. From there, you will be expected to walk until you find a tunnel, enter the tunnel twice (which ... somehow involves making a loop that shouldn't be possible), and find your way out of a blizzard by walking toward a sound. During this blizzard, you will think that the game is glitching. That's how confused you'll be.

The second was that the explorable area is huge, and your position isn't marked on the map. While I get that this helps make it seem more realistic, in practice, it doesn't work. It's almost impossible to recognize landmarks in a video game, and it's so much easier to get lost when you're pixels on a screen than when you're actually standing in a forest. The map is therefore all but useless.

The third was that there's no warning on what to avoid. If you see a character in a game that is not behaving in a hostile fashion, you will probably want to go talk to them. In Kholat, that's a horrible idea. If you see a flat space on the ground directly in the middle of a road, you may be tempted to walk over it. In Kholat, that's a horrible idea. If you're lost in a dark forest and you see a welcoming cabin with a light on, you might go inside. In Kholat, that's a horrible idea. The process of figuring out what you are and aren't supposed to do is confusing. And there's very little room for you to explore and run away if things go wrong, because you're unarmed (as one generally is, when exploring a haunted forest alone) and you run slightly faster than a tortoise.

Now for the key question: is this game worth playing?

Despite everything I've said above, I think it is. Kholat succeeds at building a frightening atmosphere, and with a little patience, you'll eventually come to understand the gameplay.

But if you know that confusing gameplay isn't your thing, and if you struggle to read maps, and if you just want to play a straightforward horror game without dying every five minutes or so from something you could never have avoided, this is not for you.

An interesting and intriguing premise that is unfortunately dampened by frustrating game play. Slow walking, with often no warning of an enemy nearby just lalalala, off to the next location and suddenly BAM YOU DIED! Quit after getting frustrated by the game getting in the way of itself.

This is the first negative review I've given a game. I was really hoping to like this game, but I just couldn't. The main problem I had with it is that I just didn't know what to do. I would die in random spots and be sent back to the last checkpoint which was several minutes back each time.
Very cool idea, but badly implemented. I refunded.

I hate to say this but the game was just lackluster. The game is not as scary as I thought, it does not even make me worry on the path I choose. It seems like the game is a tech-demo with a sprinkle of story here and there, I am not kidding when I say its just that. The concept was really good and I can follow the story, but the gameplay was just not doing it for me. I love walking sim and horror games, but this game did not fall into my liking.

The map and compass mechanic is really great as it is very immersive and challenging, that's something I like what this game does. It would have been great if the enemy hunts you around the map, instead of fixed encounters. I wish that the map could have been more interactive instead of just a screenshot galore.

Despite me receiving this game for free, I still can't recommend the game on full price. If you are, however, really like what the game offers - go get it at full price. Huge potential brought down by gameplay.

The game has its ups and downs. On a positive note, the atmosphere and scenery are great. The scenes in the different sections are well done. The background story is quite interesting and appealing. The music is also fitting. The fear factor in the darkness definitely scared me.

Unfortunately, the long paths turned out to be a bit monotonous. The developers could have implemented this in a more interesting way. More options than just walking, looking at the map and using the flashlight would have been nice.

All in all, a good game for horror fans. I played through the game twice, once for the story and once to get all the achievements.

This is real bad.
Like, the atmosphere is decent (though I have no idea why there are stock creaking sfx that make me feel like I'm on a haunted pirate ship), but not only is the game super obtuse, it's also just not fun.
It's actually an interesting contrast to the last game I played -- a half life 2 mod from 15 years ago. As rough as that game was, as unintuitive as the controls could be, and as outdated as the visuals were, it was still more fun to just move around the level than this game is or could ever be. I have no desire to trudge around a frozen wasteland in circles with no idea of what I'm supposed to do when even the act of moving around is dull as dirt.
I was at least expecting to be hooked by the story, but so far at least there's just about nothing here. The spoOoOky story isn't awful when paired with the atmospheric visuals, but I still have no idea who I'm playing as or why I should care about any of this.
Even the narration, as lauded as it is, is garbage. Sean Bean is a good actor, but either he has no voice acting experience or he was directed very poorly. To be fair, it could easily be both.
So yeah, there's just about nothing here to hold my interest, and what is here can be more easily, conveniently, and cheaply gained by watching a playthrough. Stay far away from this one.

is it a walking simulator? an open-world survival game? a psychological horror game? who knows! the devs certainly didn't! but sure is very open for a game that seems to want you to stay on one path, making it very easy to get lost and die in the snow. on top of that, it's another walking sim adjacent game with no jump button, and a run button that stops working after about 5 seconds. i don't get game devs setting out to tell a story, and then making a game that is so directionless you don't want to experience it. it's almost to the point that kholat is player hostile. could definitely have used a better map system to show the player where they're supposed to go, since this isn't on rails like other walking sims. overall? avoid this one.

In this game you play as the worlds slowest man who can't jump and is too stupid to hold the map with north pointing up. You roam around endless snowy landscapes for hours and absolutely nothing of interest happens. When it finally looks like something is about to happen, you get hit by a jumpscare monster, die and your progress is reset by an hour.

Just search Kholat map on google and use it, don't waste your time traveling around. Also use tents to quick travel. I didn't know that and wasted my 2 hours. Aaand flashlight is flickering when you're nearby an enemy. I didn't know that as well because everywhere is well lit. Game doesn't tell you any of this until you die and see them in loading screen.
Story is meh.
Atmosphere and sounds are great.

I think I got this game for free, so I will rate it as a free game and for that it is pretty good. The atmosphere is great and execution is not bad, if somewhat tedious and boring.
Music and sound design is absolutely spot on. My biggest peeve is that they should have dumped Sean Bean and stuck a non-holywood **RUSSIAN** voice actor or two in there. After all, it plays off in russia.
I see this as a missed opportunity.

Now, would I recommend this game if it wasn't free?
No. Not at around 20 bucks. Definitely not..
Steep discount on this one, or don't buy at all. Paying a fiver is pushing it.

That being said, it is a fun couple of hours.

It's a cool horror game based on a tragedy that happened in Russia many years ago. The story seems nice and the graphics are very cool. You can take beautiful screenshots in this game. The only negative thing about this game is that you kinda lose yourself in the map many times because the ambient seems similar everywhere and the only location materials you have to help you is a map and a compass. Beside that, I really enjoyed playing this game. I give it a classification of 7/10.

Honestly the most boring game I think I've ever played. I've put an hour in and collected some notes, but absolutely nothing at all has happened. The game is advertised as being a scary horror game about investigating the mysterious deaths of hikers, but it's just a walking simulator with an uneasy atmosphere and nothing to discover.

You're placed in a very big and very bleak map with nothing to discover outside of the notes, while the notes don't provide any meaningful lore (which is a shame because the game is based on investigating an extremely interesting real world event). All you do is walk through a snowy mountain that looks the same no matter where you look and hear the same few sound effects over and over. You can sprint to get around faster, but that's limited to about 3 seconds of stamina, and your actual exploration is hindered by the enemies, uninspired ghost-like figures, randomly appearing anytime you venture anywhere the game doesn't want you to. The few notes I did find felt like no accomplishment as they didn't provide any real lore and changed nothing in the game

Maybe the game picks up later, but I was falling asleep staring at the same scene and hearing the same sounds while walking at a snails pace for an hour.

Spent 20 minutes walking in circles with repetitive ambiance droning in the background. Character walks insanely slow, with virtually no stamina for sprinting. Collectibles consist of entries in your logbook/journal which are incredibly wordy, and the frequency at which you collect them only exacerbates this. Zoom feature is useless, since it blurs your vision, and there's nothing to really look at besides snowy rocks and the occasional bridge. Falling more than a foot is an instant death, leading to multiple sections of trying to squeeze down the side of a slope to avoid falling. In this sense, it's hard to know what the devs wanted to make accessible or not, or if there was any intended path, as any precipice that looks dangerous can probably be slid down safely if you have the patience. Certain events also have instant death moments if you don't somehow know what to do. At the very least, the small portion i played was very forgiving with saves, but that didn't help much. I don't know if the game is supposed to get better, but it makes a very poor first impression and I lost interest fast.

Wait, where are the dragons?

A brief review where i get straight to the point:
This game is a walking simulator game with lot's of walking. This game is absolutely beautiful and IMHO: the graphics are beyond discription. This game is based on events that happened in real life. Wiki Dyatlov Pass for more info.

Now lot's Of Bla-bla:
You will see so much snow you will get cold. But this will be a journey of your life. Remove the dangers and a plot out of this game - it will still be a fantastic walking simulator. So many places to see. So many things to happen. You will get chills all over your body at some points. VR this game immediately! If only there were more survival factors like: cold, fristbite, foods, a necessity to build a campfire or find places to hide to rest when in danger zones, but it is already exciting as it is. Why am i saying about the dragons? The answer is simple: Kholat is so freaking atmospheric, the weather effects are so well-made and the walking-runing-searching elements are so exciting - this would be a perfect graphic mode for Skyrim. Just take a look at some screenshots i've made and you will see why. And there are more in the game. Many more things to see and experience. But THIS IS A WALKING SIMULATOR so BEWARE. And i must agree and admit that many will not find this game fun to play.

Let's find out why:
First of all(and again): This is a walking simulator. Not suitable at all for players prefering an FPS game where bullets fly at you from every direction. Don't even try it.
Second: This game is difficult to navigate. There is no interractive map with an autopath or else. Just a map. A common map. A piece of paper. You will get lost. Be ready.
Third: This is a story-based game. To understand it you will need to find papers and to read texts. It is difficult to find some of them, but they all make that Nirnroot-alike sound when you are close. You don't need to find them all, but yes, more found - more questions answered.

About the Horror element, but BEWARE, SPOILER ALERT(read only if you have doubts about how scary it is and want to know what to expect:
[spoiler]There are no gross, hideous, or shocking visuals in the game, but expect some cult scenery, several getaway scenes, some Catch playing and some repeatable jumpscares if you are caught.[/spoiler]

Kholat is a mystery horror game which plot revolves around the Dyatlov Pass incident. We play as a nameless, voiceless character. The game plays like a walking simulator, where you walk around the map, collecting notes to find out what happened. The graphics, atmosphere, sound, and music of Kholat is really great, where you really feel like in a frozen wasteland. There are also sound cues when a note is nearby, by the sound of paper rustling. The soundtrack can be peaceful, and also unsettling at times.

The main problem of Kholat is the gameplay itself. While I like walking sims, Kholat is frustrating. The map is non-interactive, it doesn't track where you are, and only tracks the location of notes you collected and camps. Navigation is difficult, and you could easily get lost. You also cannot jump or climb ledges, which makes many paths a one way trip. The story is kinda lacking, because we don't know who we play as, and what are the character's motivations during the game. It would be a lot better if Kholat had an interactive map, so we can be more immersed in the environment, instead of getting frustrated because we got lost.

STORY

- 4/10
based on true story - Dyatlov Pass incident, with fictional conclusion. this is what brought me to this game and iam a little disappointed. minor spoilers (learned in early game) - the conclusion is [spoiler]supernatural[/spoiler] and i was expecting some kind of [spoiler]creature[/spoiler]

GAMEPLAY

- 6/10
*basically a walking simulator, you find notes by following coordinates on your map to progress the story and avoid danger.
*this is where the game shines the most in my opinion, there is no marker and you cannot even see where you are on the map, its so easy to get lost. this might be a big no no for you but i wish more games did things this way

GRAPHICS

- 6/10
not bad

PERFORMANCE

- 4/10
fps drops, minor graphical glitches , sound glitches, occasional mini freezes etc. but the game is very slow paced so everything is bearable

HIGHLIGHTS

+hardcore map system
+good atmosphere and sound
-walking sim

CONCLUSION

its hard for me to recommend it, but if you are really into that real life incident or you like the map system i mentioned, you can give it a go.

I really wanted to like this game. It started so good. The feel, the aesthetic, and audio are all so good. The checkpoints are so few and far between though, and since you can easily get stuck on terrain and have to quit to menu > continue to get unstuck (why is there no damn jump button??), it just so frustrating.
There's no indication of how far you are into the game either. Like am I almost done so I'll grind my teeth and push through the bad gameplay? I dunno. So I'm just going to quit, uninstall, and try to forget how promising this seemed but how it was ruined by terrible gameplay.

Kholat is a decent walking sim.

It is not exactly a horror game, it's more creepy and unsettling than scary, but it manages to keep this tone throughout the game with nice music and great sound design. The story is told mostly through notes and narration and unfortunately it feels underdeveloped and the ending is rushed.

That being said, visually it looks really good, and the atmosphere is top notch, just like the voice acting and general sounds. Now most of the game is walking around with the occasional avoid the monster section. It's never too boring, and I was never really lost, which felt great, since the game gives only few directions.

A walking sim is nothing without a story, and Kholat features an interesting premise. It's set during the Dyatlov Pass incident, which was a famous real world mystery, that has only been solved recently. Sadly, the game barely uses this and makes up its own story which is far less interesting than the Dyatlov mystery. That being said, it does have a few elements left for individual interpretation, so the story remains somewhat open. Ultimately, that's a good thing in a narrative like this.

I wanted to like this game. It really tries to set an atmosphere, the story is good, the pacing is right for the type of game (a bit slow and plodding).

But after wandering around for a half hour and suddenly dying, only to find out that I'd lost that half hour of progress?

That's not how you treat a player with that type of pacing and gameplay.

If it had a more forgiving save system, I think it would work out. As it is, it's just not worth the time sunk into it.

STORY

You may have Kholat because the game was free 1 year ago and you want to play the game you got
Kholat is a game based on a true story which makes the game much more scarier
As usual you will be alone in a Mountain range named otorten in russia
You will have to search for the rest of your crew , unknown where they are and why there are gone

GRAPHICS

The game takes place in a mountain rage on winter
That means = SNOW , TREES , ROCKS
Thats not actually bad , the game is taking place in the forest so expect
to see much more than SNOW , TREES , ROCKS
the graphis are pretty good and fits with the horror theme

Game Time

You will have to play the game 5 hours constantly if you want to end the game in one shot
Of course you have the option to save the game

DIFFICULTY

its not something hard to play the game
just be carefull where you go

AUDIO

Sometimes the audio sounded so real that i instantly put out my headphones to check if something happened
the audio is so well made , good enought to make you shudder

GAMEPLAY

The game is open world
And doesnt tell you what to do and where to go
You will have to find out alone
Something that will make you shuffer at the beggining is the orientation

PRIZE

I got free the game
But right now the game costs 18bucks
Which is expensive for a game made in 2015
But probably the game will get a sale

This game....is very hard. Being the completionist that I am, trying to find every piece of paper/info/what not when I'm directionally challenged makes for a frustrating experience. Not having manual saves makes for long playing sessions as the save points are campfires. Which are sparsley laid about. The graphics are amazing and the music/ambient sounds are perfect. Very creepy atmosphere. The map doesn't actually show where you're at, that has to be deduced with the compass. Something I've yet to figure out; it doesn't help that it's a Russian compass. If you can't read a map or compass, or are directionally challenged I do not recommend it. However if you're looking for a challenge and don't mind not having exact location on a map, give it a try.

I just started playing Kholat and I am very impressed with everything the game has to offer. The story has weight, the pacing is very well done and the environment is beautiful yet terrifying all at the same time. Taking the time to absorb the environment is probably one of the best ways to adjust to the time between the vital points of the game. I found myself just wandering and getting lost because I was so entranced by the scenery... and then I nearly have a heart attack because the anomally pops up in front of me. Summing up, if you enjoy a game that has pride in its ability to pull you away from the thought of being scared while being a horror game Kholat is a very good choice. I would recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of psychological horror games and I would say a good way to play this game is in longer sessions.I hope to see more games coming from IMGN.PRO and hope they continue in the same style as Kholat.

Gave it an hour of my time, and while the atmosphere and visuals are really cool, it just didn't stick for me due to the really slow pacing. I might play it sometime in the future when I have less of a backlog, since the idea of navigating the world with only a compass and a map (no HUD) and orienting yourself via co-ordinates found within the world seems like it has potential.

Props for being well-localized though. The Polish voice-acting was good, and I liked that there were Japanese subtitles and text for me to read throughout.

Zitat:

Sean Bean:
Are you coming to me?

Kholat is a very interesting experience, more a walking simulator than a survival horror, that is, a game based mainly on exploration and contemplation.

Thanks to its amazing atmosphere (both graphics and sounds), make you feel constant tension, which helps a lot to get you engaged in the story.

The gameplay, I mean the navigation, sometimes it's a little confusing, although I guess that's part of its charm (could be one of the points of this game: to make you feel lost constantly).

Recommended if you like horror games and/or walking simulators.

Looks good, creepy and lonely atmosphere and was really interesting in the beginning at least but seems like odd design choice to make the game so based on running away from things but you can only sprint for like 5 seconds until the character almost faints and whatever the forest creatures/entities are appear too often to create any suspense or mystery. Then it's no longer scary.

Amazing game connected to real life events on the Dyatlov Pass, Kholat Syakhl.
For what is clear and obvious on what happened in real life, the game provides a supernatural view over it, along with truthful details.

✦ At first it didn't seem like it had much to offer, but the more I played, explored and got involved, the more I loved it.
The fact that I already had a lot of interest and research done on the real life event, definitely contributed to that.

✦ Gameplay-wise, the map and compass mechanism is interesting and realistic in theory but you just won't undertand shit at first BECAUSE I think devs put the coordinates system wrong and
I believe the North (red, C, Cевер) and South (black, Юг, after Югославия) are switched up:
xºN should increase the number as you go up and it doesn't. West and East are good, so that just adds to my hypothesis.
Idk but this is what worked for me after testing it several times.
(the only time you needed a tutorial for once, there isn't one lol. you wouldn't skip it this time!)

Very dull game. You walk around in a blizzard for what feels like forever trying to find notes from a journal. Using a compass and a map where you kinda just have to guess where you are. There are barely any spooky parts and the killer ghost comes off as cheesy when it tries to chase or grab you. The atmospheric sounds are okay though.
