“This game is awesome. The devs were so creative with it. Didn't rely on cheap jump scares but it still got me good multiple times. $2.99 is a steal for this game”
“Neat but short observation/scary little game. I was curious about it, bought it for dirt cheap but it was a little over priced for the actual length of this mini game. Overall it is good but way to short, i wanted more…”
“This game is so much fun. Had some hair raising scary moments. Smiling the whole play through. As a humble worker in a factory...your job is to check each newly made wood cabin to see if it is haunted or not. Each cabin…”

“The Cabin Factory fulfilled my jump scare itch without adding the stress of a survival horror. I like that it tells a story and the spooks were definitely effective (and fun!). I will mention that this game seems to be…”

“It's quite nice for what it is. The mechanics look similar to the other games in this genre ("spot the anomaly"), but they (intentionally?) aren't. The story unfolds as you are inspecting the cabins, and of course, fail…”
“Was pleasantly surprised to find out that there's a story, the game is pretty boring tho, and not much scary stuff going on.”
“Cabin Factory is a quite a fun and engaging experience. It makes you use your head in a unique yet fun twist of "Spot the difference" in the setting of a haunted cabin that has room, objects etc change. Some changes are…”

“Its just one story over the span of 8 cabins - I went into this expecting a lot more than what I got Feels like a horror spot the difference puzzle Also runs like ♥♥♥♥ using a bunch of premade assets - looks decent but…”
“I loved The Cabin Factory. Such a simple idea but it actually stresses you out. Just walking through cabins trying to figure out if something’s off and suddenly you’re overthinking every little detail. The vibe is…”
“Has some serious creep. Really impressed by how atmospheric and creepy this game is given how simple the premise is. Can't wait for the full release.”

“I was reluctent about trying "anomalies" games, but I gave this one a go and didn't regret it. I thought it was gonna be super repetitive, but surprisingly it wasn't! Simple but efficient game.”
“A pretty unique mechanic that might not hook you right away, but after the first 3 or 4 cabins, you get genuinely curious to see what else the game has in store. I also really loved the idea that once you successfully…”

“Very scary and creepy game. I completed it 100% in 3 hours but was very good whilst it lasted. If you want a cheap horror thrill to pass the time then this will do nicely. Bonus points if you get it on sale.”
— a player, Steam review · 3 hrs played“As I write this, I'm not sure if I'm going to hit that thumbs up button or not. After a bit of searching around, it seems that this is an "Anomaly game" and that's a whole genre unto itself. It's the first game of this type I've played so I don't know how to rank it against…”
— a player, Steam review · 1 hrs played“nice sound design, eerie atmosphere (even with the warehouse peeking through the windows), some haunted cabins have movement so slight you get chills when you finally notice them. all in all, a neat little horror game. absolutely worth the price. has a neat little story to piece…”
