Mouthwashing Reviews
Mouthwashing is a masterclass in psychological horror, featuring phenomenal writing and striking imagery that is sure to leave you awed, inspired, and utterly terrified.
Mouthwashing is a horror tale with a great story, but despite mouthwash being a key part of the narrative, there's still an awkward taste here...
While Mouthwashing certainly won’t be for everyone, its unsettling sights and slow-burn narrative are difficult to scrub from memory. It builds toward brutal reveals with style and purpose as its fragmented storytelling forces us to fill in the gaps—its suggestions of violence are often worse than the real thing. It has plenty of terrifying sights, but perhaps its scariest element is how it puts us in the headspace of someone committing increasingly awful acts, all conveyed via distressing moments of interactivity that make you feel complicit in the butchery. Through its portrayal of desperation and crushing guilt, Mouthwashing is as cold as the vacuum of space.
Mouthwashing, a psychological horror survival story set on a marooned starship, is both terrifying and thoughtful.
Mouthwashing is a magnificent horror game that accomplishes so much in spite of the limited resources. Despite its short runtime and few gameplay sequences, the sequences that are there create so much tension and add great depth to its main characters. Further, its visual style is filled with surprises that will constantly keep players at the edge of their seats. Mouthwashing is a must-play for any fans of the horror genre.
Mouthwashing is more bizarre than I could have imagined, especially during the game's final puzzle, a grotesque and disturbing moment that will stick with me for a long time. The approach to the game's visuals really sold the atmosphere and tone and took a game that could have fallen flat and really made it something really memorable. Mouthwashing is likely not what you think it is, it's far more bizarre than you could possibly imagine.
When I mentioned that Mouthwashing may be one of the weirdest things I’ve played in a while, I definitely did not meant it in a bad way. Its bizarrely unique structure pushes what would have otherwise been a bog standard horror title to a next level of unsettling. The plot is wild, the scares are effective, and the weird presentation just kept me on edge. It’s not perfect by any means, with the gameplay feeling bland and some attempts to mix things up falling flat, but I had a pretty good time with it.
