Decent game

No while the game launches and seemingly runs normally a key gimmick, the cam corder, breaks making you unable to procede past its tutorial
Was unable to progress past chapter 3 as the controls on the camcorder are busted

Camcorder scenes are broken. Couldn't get past the first one as the controls to get through the scene are not working. Can rewind from the menu, but can't pause where you need to.
Couldn't get through the first red tape camcorder section. Controls to pause at the right moment are borked.

The Epic Games Store version. The game does not start, the fairy tale is thrown out by the UE4 error report.
by default, PortProton
Changing the settings did not help, changing the version of Proton\Wine, rolling back the drivers did not bring results either.

I have GOG version launched via Lutris with Wine-GE-Proton8-14. On this GE Proton game works great witch all cinematics.
Chapter 12 crashed repeatedly at the same point, could be fixed with temporarily launching with "PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%" and playing to the next autosave, then switching back to normal.
Fast Forward/Backward doesn't work, tapes have to be restarted by using Next/Last tape keys. This doesn't work for the first tape and has to be repeated from the main menu if missed
Game works fine with Proton Experimental and GE-Proton7-38
Game can crash while trying to rewind/fast forward found footage videos. There is a lot of frames drop if you are playing the game in the highest graphic mode. Keeping textures level to high while deactivating most of the other graphic options seems to solve the issue.
Crashes occurred while trying to fast forward/rewind found footage without following the workaround provided by Dario : press start to enter the Pause menu and go back to the game (you have to do this twice) will allow you to play a video from the start (you have to be watching a video while doing this). I was able to reach Chapter 12 using this method.
Automatic crash during chapter 3 after going back to the mine.
Impossible to rewind/fast forward found footages
It would be great to find a resolution to this problem as the game is not playable.
OPENSSL_ia32cap=0x20000000 %command%
unable to progress story because forward/rewind on camcorder does not work
Because of an OpenSSL related bug the game does not launch/crashes directly on recent Intel CPU's. The launch option fixes that, but game still remains unplayable after a certain point in the game.
Game locks up on found footage camcorder scenes trying to rewind/forward video
Works out of the box in Proton now, but only up to the point you find "found footage" and try to forward/rewind the tape.

6.20-GE-1
Some water textures.
You have to enable fullscreen or your game’s gonna crash.
It’s impossible play this on Proton. The “rewind” function of the camera make the game unplayable.
I only made it works with Proton GE (except the gameplay with the camera). Not with normal Proton (‘cause cutscenes doesn’t work and make the game crash when you try to make a new game).

Não foi preciso
Ficou ótimo com proton perssonalizado mas não testei com outros pois o protonGE 6.5-GE-2 está me dando ótimos resultados. Extramamente simples de usar
Besides an issue with the camcorder tapes that does not affect playability, the game works beautifully
Needed to avoid audio and video desynchronization in cutscenes.
Needed to avoid crashing the game right before the first cutscene in chapter three.
If you rewind or fast forward the tapes you run the risk of getting stuck in the camcorder forcing you to reload from the last saved game. To avoid this condition, do not fast forward or rewind the camcorder. To restart the playback from start for a specific tape, enter and return from the game menu twice and/or switch to another tape. Eventually playback for the current tape will start from the beginning.
The game was tested with Proton 5.13-6. Different (even future) versions may not work. In case of further issues, try using this version instead.

Downloaded with the Epic Game Launcher and added the game .exe in Lutris. Set up to 5.20 Staging because 5.17 didn't work.
The cut scenes work now with 5.20 Staging but the audio is totally borked, cracking and stuttering noises.
Cut scene audio is broken.
Game crashed once entering a cut-scene, tried the second time with (PROTON_FORCE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 taskset -c 1-12 %command%) launch option. And the got past the cut-scene, not sure if any of those options actually made difference or if it was just a random crash.
With latest Proton GE cust-scenes play without the need for mf-install. However in Chapter 3 you can't control the video footage with the camcorder.
Playable up to Chapter 3
Installed Media Foundation (mf-install)
You have no control when playing back found footage (pause/rewind/forward).
Being unable to properly examine found footage makes the game practically unplayable.


Main menu reached fine, but attempting to start the game causes a hang on black screen. Tested with multiple versions of proton, and with different graphics settings. Very pretty main menu though, 10/10.


Out of the box game gets stuck in a black screen when a cut-scene is supposed to be played. Game works perfectly if installing media foundation files: colorcnv.dll mf.dll mferror.dll mfplat.dll mfplay.dll mfreadwrite.dll msmpeg2adec.dll msmpeg2vdec.dll sqmapi.dll. Rating this borked because those files are not free to distribute.

Main menu works fine, but starting new game causes black screen.
