The latest game on Worst Game On Steam is Exorcism Ritual... It's not a bad game to say the least. It seems to have some good qualities like the ability to save, buy weapons from a merchant, explore a creepy wood and house, but the terrible puzzles really take from the overall experience. The fact that you can go out of bounds by closing a door or evening just walking outside is insane to me but also hilarious. For the £2 price it's not the worst game on steam but even for that price tag, it's way too short and doesn't offer much in the way of a coherent story.
Also thanks to this guy for figuring out the codes: czcams.com/users/liveA_wLCuDf...

I'm WickedWiz from the What Went Wrong series coming at you with some of the most cursed indie games on Steam. This new series is for games that are so bad, that they're actually good. Worst Game On Steam, is a question that hopefully turns out to be false each time. These are games that won't fit the longer form What Went Wrong videos. - Hry
dev was putting invisible colliders over patches of grass but he forgot to put one on the gate lmao
As an Indonesia, I can assure you that we don't conduct exorcism with guns. Kris blades, maybe, but not guns. Nor do our ghosts drop cryptocurrency as far as I know. It's super bizarre to see an indonesian game called 'Exorcism Ritual' is about a person running around shooting guns and stabbing ghosts, lmao.
How about the Expensive Apple/Banana/Apple Banana/Apple Apple/Banana smoothies, what’s the word on those?
Well in Malaysian folklore, that monster @8:04 is supposed to be a Penanggalan, which is a monster associated with witchcraft. in the folklore, they fly around as the floating head of a woman, looking for blood to drink. I dont know if Malaysia and Indonesia are the same, I guess not? But that might be why they called it 'exorcism Ritual'. As for the guns, well, I have no idea, lol, other than for fun
@@MrReaperofDead in Indonesia it's called "Kuyang" Those are some kind of witchcraft and eats babies in villages so they'll stay young and umm about the guns? We don't do that here to exorcise 💀💀💀
You are Indonesia itself?! I did not know entire countries could speak! Thanks for your confirmation, kind sir.
@@saba-rr8dwenglish obv isnt his native language, smartass
it's actually really refreshing to see a youtuber give these games a chance and attempt to glean what their themes and messages are
I actually really appreciate that. I’m still not going to play most of these but it’s nice to see a somewhat fair take on what others would either ignore or shit on.
@@Xenephos they're shit on for good reason: they're shit.
Really sets it apart from what could easily devolve into an AVGN or Nostalgia Critic clone.
Agree, i know many youtuber who gonna try these game complain at the first sight of jank and just quit halfway after they collect enough footage
@@pptemplar5840 yep. To hell with those morons.
You know how the Crib Key safe had the word "Mass" on it? I think the puzzle was
- Expensive Bananas weight 2 (as shown on the scale)
- Expensive Apples weight 1
- The expensive smoothie list told you the numbers as combinations of these 2 numbers
I was wondering if that word on the safe was a hint or something lol
Wiz is spoiling us with this output. This series is so strange and interesting, I love it.
That last game or the one before that was actually decent. I love these videos cause its a nice showcase. Will it suck, will it be steam top 100. Tune in and find out
The models bugging out when you fell OOB is a floating point precision error. The bigger a floating point number, the fewer digits it can reserve for the decimal place, and eventually the engine runs out of fine detail to render polygons in. If you were capable of moving normally in that section, you'd more than likely notice uncomfortably-constrained movement in places, due to floating point precision messing with the valid positions your player character can physically occupy.
I saw this as long ago as Homeworld 1. There is a *yuuuuge* map called GalaxyN. It's so huge that the sensors manager cannot render more than about a quarter of it at a time, and all of the models' vertices wobble around like crazy.
There's also a spot in Metroid Prime 1 where you can get OOB near the Frigate entrance on one of the little side rooms, and you can fall for long enough the same thing happens, but the Gamecube can only handle this for so long.
I tried to look this up just to find out it was in the comments the whole time lmao
That’s really interesting but makes a ton of sense if you think about it
We have to assume they use 64 bit so it's unlikely they run out. It could be a type cast issue, but I would bet it's just bad programming. An unfinished transition animation or something. The fact that they messed up the normals indicates that the modelling also isn't top notch (likely off-the-shelf models).
so basically someone needs to go back to game development classes?
@@snowmorgan4115 Nope. This can happen in all 3D games. It's not a developer issue nor an engine issue, but rather a computer issue.
Every time you foreshadowed something like "I did not expect what happened next," the video would cut perfectly to an ad, and for a second I thought the game just got weirdly surreal. This happened more than once.
Same here. A milisecond of the next cut/jumpscare and then ad
The looping key segment was the dev trying to be PT. That was a looping hallway and the puzzles revolve around the changes from the loops.
11:00 And I'm pretty sure the writing on that door is Ancient Mayan. I can't read what it says, but I recognise some of the characters. Obviously a random asset picked up because it looked nice, as it's literally on the wrong side of the world for Indonesia!
Edit: the head with trailing guts seen at one point is a penanggalan, a traditional Indonesian/Malay night monster.
Or just penanggal!
I was gonna say, it reminds me of something in DreadOut which is also an Indonesian horror game
Who ever made this game is a huge fan of RE 4 and 7
I was just thinking this! I heard merchant and immediately thought of re4 loll
I think they were a bigger fan of all the money those games made.
Most games like this are based off of Resident Evil. The Evil Within was inspired by Resident Evil 4
@@Urmother1265 The Evil Within was literally made by the same guy as Resident Evil 4.
@@Urmother1265 same devs
The asset for the house is called “HQ, residential house” it’s a stock asset which is just texture flipped/rooms get moved around in these cheapo games
The floating head also appears in another horror game called Eyes. Not sure if it's an asset you can buy or if it's stolen lol
THANK YOU! I knew I saw that head before!
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT!!!
and again, Wicked Wiz is a man of his word and standing on a kitchen counter to install Sajen
I love how frequently you've been uploading lately. Keep at it, chief. I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that you'll be up there in no time. You definitely have what it takes!
Yeah, with the pace he’s keeping he might catch up with his main channel
That knife you have there Wiz is a Phurba, used in Tibetan Buddhism and Indian Vedic exorcism rituals. It's less used for some stabby stabby and more like an Athame in witchcraft. Your cleansing the house by leaving food and tribute for hungry ghosts, the developer did use some actual ritual techniques. Love the content, your on a real roll and so refreshing.
Learned something new today. Cheers!
@@wicked_wizard Your welcome! I even remembered to subscribe this time.
Was that a phurba? It just looked like a kris... unless a kris can be a phurba? But I'll admit, the only time I've even seen a phurba is in the should-have-been-a-mega-hit 1994 movie The Shadow.
@@zeikjt That's my favorite Baldwin. The one in the movie is a Tibetan exorcism phurba. Your comment made my day actually, I always wished they would do a modern remake, darker of course.
@@GirlVersusGame Haha, I did really love the movie when I saw it as a kid, left an impression obviously since I still remember it. It would definitely be cool to see a modern day take on it!
What is interesting is they may be the first devs to make their own weapon from scratch that doesn't look that bad, it's based on an Javanese Blade that was used in Java, Indonesia. It's called a Kris, and yes, that is the real name, and is dated around 800 CE
So I have to say they've done research into their own culture well
I know Kris is a dagger like weapon because of Diablo 2 where there's a Kris weapon type.
A Kris isn't that unknown
@@TheDsRequiem I mean, maybe after Deltarune
i mean, the kris is basically the runner up of the probably most popular indonesian weapons, a lil' bit behind bamboo spears which is basically the weapon of indonesia's independence. and the karambit which everyone and their mother knows

The only logic I could find on that sudoku part was, that all selected doors combined to 4, 5, 6 and 7 in their little boxes. Hats off to you for doing it with trial and error, I would have lost my mind.
8:10 idk if someone else mentioned it but thats literally just the floating ghost head from the old mobile horror game (also one of the only few good mobile horror games) called EYES
Glad to see that I'm not the only one.
It's a Penanggalan from Malay folklore, shame that it doesn't actually do anything here.
I was going to say, it’s the exact model used in eyes too, same movement and everything
I knew it
Loved that game as a kid
"Sorry, I'm bri'ish, I dunno how guns work"
*stabs everything*
The floating head thing you tried to shoot is a Penanggalan. It's a vampiric monster from Southeast Asian folklore. It is cool to see lesser-known monsters, at least!
Hello fellow SEA man
Yeah but what a lame creature.
@@planexshifterIts uncool, until ya know the price of their organ when you hunting them XDD
Joke, we respect our folklore :D
Seeing the Krasue with the same model from Eyes: The Horror Game just makes you feel like playing that instead of whatever this is. Great series though especially loved the Tahoe Dragon vid :)
Just got home from a hellish day at work. Changed into my sweats and plopped down on the couch to find this video posted 17 min ago. This is exactly what I needed on a Monday evening. Thank you
peace and love with u ryan hope your night's easy 🙏
I’m probably looking too much into it, but I can somewhat see how this game can be a commentary on cryptocurrencies craze in general.
Here’s my theory:
In this game you gain 3 ETH from killing the severed hands, and at the end, after severing you hands (from the way I see it) you get 999 ETH. Now, Indonesia is a majority muslim country, and severed hands back in medieval age is meant as a punishment for stealing or by doing something immoral. 3 ETH is a lot of money, and guess what the easiest way to get those much in a short amount of times.
Next, the notes. The person that writes the note believe he’s better than everyone because he went from poor to rich at a young age, or very fast. Alluding to the commentary on crypto hustle culture or the how the cryptobros always felt the need to boast about their financial superiority toward others.
The Sajen are a common items for traditional shamanic rituals in Indonesia, alluding to the commentary of cult like behavior of the crypto space.
The merchants, they sell guns, which is illegal in Indonesia. The only possible way to get those are from the black market, especially on the deep web which include anonymity (have to add this here since the merchants hide their face), uses cryptocurrency as the main method of purchase. Alluding to the commentary for one of the most common use case scenario for cryptocurrencies.
There’s potentially more examples, but these are the stuff I can see as a blatant commentary on the whole cryptocurrency space.
Or I could just be looking into this shitty game too much and this all just a mad rambling of a lunatic.
That makes a surprising amount of sense. Doesn't explain how the penanggalan fits into it though. I like the theory though.
just the mad ramblings of a lunatic
That’s a great analysis! It makes a lot of sense
If i remember correctly sudoku also requires you to have unique numbers in each field (square) while also keeping the lineas and rows rule true.
When I saw the first out of bounds was with a door right next to a very tight corridoor with walls, my thought was "well, doors and colliders are very difficult so if the door pushes you in just the right way then it is pretty easy to clip out of bounds"
What I was not expecting was it just.... teleporting you out of bounds.... That I cannot explain lmao
probably it tries to load the next scene when you interact with the door, so by interacting with it in a way it didn't expect it loaded into a scene where your coordinates happen to be OoB
**sees it was based on Indonesian paranormal experience** : ah, cool, very cultured
**sees isekai's game difficulty mode** : ah... very.. cultured
I really appreciate how you give these games a fair chance while still being able to poke fun at the jankier moments. All of the videos in this series have had great rewatchability so far!
Today I learned stabbing is a common British kink.
Not sure about the usefulness of this piece of information, but I hope not to find out anytime soon.
31:12 I couldn't find a comment mentioning but the sudoku logic is that numbers can't be repeated in columns or rows. The top row and right column were the only ones that didn't repeat numbers.
Also, thanks for showing these games. It's funny how good looking a crap game can be despite how little actual effort the devs put in.
18:19
He's basically describing how to play the old electronic toy "Simon". A classic.
Oh, that's a Penanggalan, and it is indeed a monster from Indonesian folklore. By day it looks like a regular woman, but by night its head detaches trailing its innards with it, and it flies around in search of prey: it particularly hungers for the unborn children of pregnant women.
The best defense against the monster is to plant spiky plants near your house, like thistles or pineapples, so that its innards get tangled up in them.
I thought its Kuyang 😂
Wiz losing his horror game touch. The shitty jump scares are getting him lmao, I'm here for it.
Bro that hand jump scare was so out of pocket that it made me jump
There are many creators out there that would use a game being underwhelming as an excuse to make underwhelming content about it. Then there are people like you who put in some real effort and exorcise far more patience then I could to genuinely see what a game has to offer.
You have my respect.
This is definitely becoming one of my favorite channels. I like the organic commentary that legitimately keeps me entertained and I also really like the length of the videos.
lmao so satisfying to hear you bring in elements of previous vids xD I was dying at you trying to go up to "Senior Sister's Bedroom" LOL
These types of videos are so fun to watch along with your commentary. Keep making more!
I love that you're doing these types of videos now. I do have a guilty pleasure love for buggy and janky video games, this content is just perfect. Your commentary makes these gems so. much. better. :D Thank you!
Edit: Also thank you for ruining every banister in every indie game ever for me. xD
Been hovering on the sub button for a few vids now, but these consistent uploads finally convinced me that I need your content on my feed. Thanks for these entertaining looks at some truly baffling games (or the many scams simply dressed up as games).
I could have sworn that the model for that Penanggalan is the same model in a different game that goes by the name of EYES.
Please never stop with this series
Ive seen that house used in a lot of games. Theres a steamer i watch that almost exclusively plays horror games, and that house was used in many of the horror games ive watched him play. The only game the name i can remember of is one of the episodes of fears to fathom, which was actually a good game
Me: "I wish there's more Indonesian based horror game."
Me after watching this game: "I'll be grateful with what i have."
At least you'll always have the DreadOut games!
Lol, I mean idc, its just best to never knew these things exist...
Ok this is going to sound weird, but my grandmother has a marionette that's exactly like the figures at 1:36 and in all the loading screens. Looks literally identical, but with nicer clothes. (See how the arms are segmented and the hands stick up? Under the dress is a stick that controls the head and balances the body) I can't remember if she picked it up when she was in Asia (between the Korean and Vietnam wars) or if her father (My great grandfather) got it while he was a traveling agricultural science professor. Wherever my family got it, this game is making me wonder if all the friends I've shown it to were right about it being creepy.
I think it's neat!
I don’t know if it’s a bug,or a feature,but I kinda like how the enemies ran off,like the hand at 10:39
Bro im am so looking forward to these. I have even brought others to the channel. These are amazing. Keep up the good work, for real!
ngl these puzzles are really thought out. not just the standard "find three of these then put them there" and so on
8:10 I recognize that ghost-asset. It´s used in the game "Eyes".
That floating head looks really familiar for some reason, I swear I have seen it in some other indie horror game a few years ago. I just don't remember where
The Eyes
You should keep track of these games, and create a list of them - like Matt McMuscles does with his Worst Fighting Game series.
How great is Mathew?
@@planexshifter pretty good
The knife you get at the start is a moro kris, a javanese (don’t worry, didn’t misspell that) dagger that’s pretty underrated. the sheathes they come in are some of the best wood work you’ll ever see. very pleased to see it in a videogame
Really, not with E as in "Keris"?
the noises you made during the safe sequence puzzle are not cringe, if it works for you, then it's great
Not gonna lie, I love that too when an in-game item actually has the correct text on it before you interact with it.
You don't understand how much I love this series. You remind me a lot of a CZcamsr in my country that used to have the same exact series. Unfortunately, he's long gone now... he only play DBD on Twitch.
Making a series about shitty games and ending up actively playing dbd... it's kinda beatifully ironic
Somehow I came across your channels and im really enjoying your videos! Also when you say omg you sound like Bob from bobs burgers :3
Just found your channel and I can’t stop binging these
A quick explanation, ravathar is the name of a rich celebrity's son in indonesia. The kid's a meme here cause he's pretty much set for life since birth (he's not bratty or spoiled, not that i know of atleast, just ridicolously rich) so the person is essentially saying he wants to be reborn as part of a wealthy family.
I’m pretty sure that clock puzzle hallway is based on P.T. Because it looks exactly the same
These videos are like a love letter made out of attention that those games would never have gotten
Once again, thank you for suffering for us! This is such an interesting series! :D
Wait a second, I recognize that floating head with the long hair. Looks like it's the same one used in that game E.Y.E.S. that had some circulation several years ago
I swear, that house asset has become the new HQ Residential. I’ve seen it in way too many games as of late.
This game has potential, honestly. If the dev just worked on the mechanics and the issue with the invisible walls, it’d be an overall decent indie game.
23:35 floating-point imprecision.
decimal numbers in computers can only store a limited number of significant digits, and the decimal point can "float" around them. for pretend's sake, let's say it's five significant digits. so you can store 12345, or 12345000, or 0.0012345, but you can't store 12345.6, for example. if you try, it just gets rounded to 12346. similarly, 12345600 gets rounded to 12346000.
once you fall far enough, you start seeing these rounding errors because the position of each part of the model is burning more and more of those significant digits on the distance from you to the world center, with less digits available for the distances between fine details on your gun and arms. for it to happen _that_ quickly, however, suggests that you had no terminal velocity -- you were just falling faster and faster forever
It’s so adorable when he gets scared I love it 😂😂 that jump going down the stairs 😂😂
15:50 That note with the super small writing, well... I took a screenshot of it, then I took it into the photoshop express app and sharpened the pic, got rid of visual noise, and fixed about 8 other settings to make the text darker ans easier to read. I was able to get the full note to a legible point now. There are a few grammatical errors, too, which makes it even harder to read normally but I excuse the dev(s) because it's an Indonesian game so English isn't their 1st language.
Anyway, after I tweaked the pic I could clearly read what it said lol.
The note:
_"Ki Indra Note (1)
I hate this, I want to be born as ravathar, no need to sell my pride
No need to work hard, I can try everything I want, even it will failure
I can try another way. I hope goverment make regulation that only rich people can have a child, so people like me never touch these pain..."_
9:58 Yoshikage Kira would like to know more about this game.
This series is what made me subscribe to the channel. Hopefully it will be a long one.
i love how you are not too harsh on this series,because you know prolly 1 or 2 people worked on this
keep up the good work with the videos mate
So happy, was just watching your backlog of videos!
At least credit the poor guy properly for helping you through a living nightmare :c
He did in the dooblydoo.
8:13 that Head is straight from the Game Eyes lmao
at 20:00 when you are stuck in that looping area it reminds me of a silent hill demo from some years ago where you need to go through it 3 times then look in one spot and that specific area was different and it triggers the next sequence but its so weird
That knives is actually Deadly Traditional Weapon from Indonesia🇮🇩
Is called "Kriss" from Jawa
that hand coming out of the door scared the crap out of me
3:43 "I'll swallow your soul, I'll swallow your soul" *flips middle finger*
love your vids, they always make me laugh
21:55 It actually got me in the middle of the day whilst watching it in a video XD Good job!
I like that the story from this game is that a poor kid got rich scamming people with crypto and was punished by the divine by haunting his house.
the code for the safe with the numbers does have to do with the fruit list. apples weigh 1 and bananas weigh 2. then you just have to enter that in the right order you get from the list. they did mess up the placement of fruit if this is the case as bananas on the scale weighed one and a banana and an apple weighed 3, thus making banana 1 and apples 2.
EXACTLY!!
That floating head is the one from Eyes: the horror game, its an old mobile game
I had a suspicion this game is trying to be Resident Evil 4 from the beginning giving me a sense of deja vu, but then when I saw the merchant, I'm pretty damn sure this game is trying to be Resident Evil 4.
Ravathar is a really popular celebrity's kid here in Indonesia, basically an ultra rich kid born with a diamond spoon. He became somewhat of a meme.
As much as I like this series, I wish you'd do games that aren't horror games because it's slowly getting repetitive. I get that most awful games on Steam are horror games, but I'm sure you could find more genres. :D
Its very unusual to see a keris used in a horror game
(For you who dont know, keris is one of traditional dagger from Indonesia and malaysia, its like a dagger but wavy)
It's always a joy to see a Wiz upload.
Those hands reminded me one of my worst nightmares as a kid
The nightmare: i wake up in the middle of the night, i go to the toilet to pee and as soon as I go inside the rest room a Hand comes out from behind the door and chokes me, then things turn black and i find myself in bed
everytime the same dream xD now this video reminded me of it made me laugh
That floating head monster is called a penanggalan, basically a vampire. It's strange because that is a Malaysian monster and not an Indonesian one IIRC.
As far as I'm aware, they're present in several areas of Southeast Asia, but some places use different names for them. It's actually really bizarre how many cultures around the world have a creature in their myths and legends that is a flying head that detaches from the body to attack people. There are similar monsters in Japanese, Native American, and South American folklore as well.
@@LaydiNite Yeah, I think it's SEA thing. It's called kuyang in Indonesia.
I hope I can one day be so wealthy I legally have to put "expensive" before every ingredient on every recipe I write down
Love that easy mode is called Isekai. 😂
Although as a difficulty name it makes no sense, they're basically calling it "another world" difficulty.
@@crystalgoddess4085 It's a metaphor, not literal.
I do not have the brain capacity for sudoku so I applaud you for your patience :o I wouldve probably been ripping my hair out LOLOL
The numbers on the doors puzzle felt more like minesweeper than sudoku.

14:15 Loved the reference from the last video 🤣👏
Love you for playing the games that from my homeland :D
My opinion at this game, it feels weird how you have the weapons, that first is "Keris" for tacticle "folks" weapon. And then you have a pistol as primary weapon from western 😂
2:31 that is plastic chair btw, hehe
What i want to says is, i am so happy my favorite youtubers known about Indonesian culture just fron this game 😂
Lol did they make the combination of a safe the weight of the ingredients in the kitchen? This dev was on another level.
That note must have been written on Bristol board to be that big lol
Loving these videos! Keep up the good work my wizard friend
18:32 - That's definitely the best and most effective way of memorizing things. To combine it with as many brain regions as possible. You could've sung colors additionally XD
I enjoy your videos. :) You're not screaming into the microphone every two seconds.
Oh my god its the Eyes: The horror game head, that brings back memories
