FEARS TO FATHOM Meets THE STALKED in ONCE UPON A MIND a Little Too Friendly

Once Upon A Mind - A Little Too Friendly is a short, story-driven psychological horror experience that focuses on grounded horror without supernatural elements [1]. The game follows Emily, a 23-year-old who moves to Brooklyn for a fresh start, taking a job at a small café [1] [2]. Her initial sense of comfort gradually unravels as an unsettling presence begins to shadow her routine [2].

The game emphasizes narrative through dialogue, monologue, and an immersive atmosphere, with most lines being voice-acted to enhance tension and emotion [1] [2]. Key story sequences are presented in a fully voiced, stylized graphic novel format for deeper emotional impact [1]. The gameplay involves first-person exploration, allowing players to interact with their surroundings and uncover the story at their own pace [1]. Despite its horror genre, it includes calm café gameplay moments [1]. The game is designed to be completed in under an hour, typically taking 40-60 minutes [1]. Its realistic tone is inspired by real-life situations of obsession, control, and unease [1].

While praised for its strong voice acting, atmospheric environment, and impactful ending, some aspects could be improved [2]. The transition between comic-style story sequences and gameplay can feel jarring, and technical issues like erratic NPC behavior and overlapping dialogue have been noted [2]. A significant point of feedback is the lack of a manual save option, though the game does resume from the last major story beat

YOUTUBE IS ABSOLUTE GARBAGE...
please follow me on other websites instead. After years of uploading and growing my channel they keep playing games with my channel, limiting access every time someone gets triggered by a truthful comment I make. If you want to help me out donations are always welcome and appreciated. It's not like YouTube is every going to pay me a dime for all the ads they run on my videos so they can rot.
