    The most terrifying part about the game is that we don't even know if there was anything outside. But Jim didn't wanna risk finding out. I hope the developer keeps making more games like this, Roblox needs more existential horror games.

    this game is actually a great adaptation of paranoia that leads to anxiety and stress 24/7. the littlest things that happen make you terrified. the news and other things increase this anxiety, and my theory is that it's all in his head (maybe having schizophrenia or something similar to it). another thing that helps support my theory is when jim says "there is someone inside my house" when it turns out there isn't, it's all about anxiety. at the end, the black square turns into a gun which jim uses to kill himself. i think the black square symbolizes something like mental health going down the drain and anxiety, so you're blind to what's really happening around you (hence why you don't know it's a gun at first).
    tl;dr the game is about paranoia and anxiety and stress, which eventually leads to suicide from fear and how you are paranoid about every little thing

    They made a horror game so well, with no jumpscares, no flashing lights, no loud sounds but instead they forced paranoia and anxiety upon the player anticipating a jumpscare from one of the closets but nothing ever happens. We never see ANY threat whatsoever, and the slow reveal of the gun is a major turning point that we don't get to know what we bought until the very end where we shoot ourselves due to the overwhelming emotions. Probably my favorite horror game on roblox right now, i've never seen anything like it.

    Absolutely love this game. I am kinda surprised this game is still up considering Roblox claims suicide-related content violates TOS. But I'm really happy it's still up. Showing raw, real-life, and devastating incidents, even through such simple animation, can be extremely impactful. Cry of Fear, easily one of the most disturbing games I've played, really left an enormous impact on many players of it through its raw but simple depiction of tragic events. Jim's Computer really hit hard at the end with it's intense but minimalistic representation of paranoia and suicide. It may look like like the average 2008 Roblox simulator, but this really is one of the few Roblox games I just love so much. Grugchamp did well :0

      it may not show blood or anything, but you can see that he starts to point the gun towards himself. and followed soon after with the gun shot. either way, it’s pretty clear that he kills himself. so it doesn’t necessarily need to show anything to get taken down. as long as it’s implied, there’s always a chance it will be.

    My theory is that Jim has some sort of medical/anxiety disorder that makes him think that someone is always trying to break into his house / kill him. And at the end you can see his hands shaking, meaning he probably got so freaked out or overwhelmed that someone was in his house that he just shot himself. This game has some dark lore and I really hope they make more endings or a second game for this.
    Edit: For everyone sayings its schizophrenia, I knew that. I didn't really think I'd have to specify but half of the replies here are telling me that, so I thought I'd go ahead and say this. (No hate to anyone who said this btw, I just wanted to let everyone know)

    Though it's short it's really interesting and unique. I like the little details like the arms shaking, the locators arrows pointing off the cliff, and all the news articles. The simplicity is also nice. There's no real jump scares, just anticipation that there will be something. Simple sounds. None of that really big build up stuff.
    As someone who can get pretty paranoid at night especially, I found this surprisingly relatable. Having to check places people can hide to feel safe, shaking and being terrified, being absolutely convinced that something bad is going to happen and there's nothing you can do to stop it or get away.
    The creator(s) is/are super talented and creative, and I hope they make more games like this

    It would seem obvious that Jim would have a large amount of paranoia in his being, but I have a strong feeling he might have schizophrenia, anxiety, paralysis, and borderline hallucinations. He constantly has reoccurring ‘dreams’ and feels constantly unsafe in his own comfort even when he knows her ‘alone’. Even if you don’t necessarily have visions, he had the symptoms of what this could have been for Jim. Coming up with possible lore for this game is fun.

    I presume Jim is the true culprit; instead of being paranoid about someone breaking into his house, perhaps he is the one the authorities are looking for, trying to lock himself up and kill himself to avoid being caught. Perhaps the person he's chatting with isn't who we think he is, but rather an accomplice who informed him about the authorities. But the story will be interesting as well as dark and twisted if Jim has a psychological issue in which he believes he is innocent and ends up killing himself, but this is not the case because he is the true progenitor of this incident (don't mind the last part; I'm just a writer who enjoys dark and twisted stuff, lol).

    This game is exceptional. The buildup is fantastic, the pacing is consistent, the story is impressive, and it's terrifying. It's so blunt with you. There are only small things that justify your anxiety, like the scratching on the door and what happens right before day 5. The story is familiar but so distant at the same time. The implications that our protagonist doesn't feel safe in their own house, which is why they wake up to check their home every night, is so realistic. Oh my God I love this game. It's so menacing.

    I have a theory, and it is that Jim is schizophrenic and he imagines that someone is constantly trying to kill him and he is aware that not all he sees or hears is real and he’s tired of his suffering constantly being alert on what’s not there to where he eventually ends his own life. This may also mean that he was struggling with paying for his medications that lead to this moment.

    i do really like the game and how well they execute Mark/Jim’s paranoia, and i also like how they both meet the same fate :) albert commenting on the helicopter makes me smile since i’m pretty sure it’s a reference to nobody coming to help Mark/Jim.
    a small touch i like is that the announcement on the TV used the same font as the one used in Mandela Catalogue.

    also, the theories in the comments are really damn cool
    jim suffering from paranoia or jim being the culprit himself are both super good observations, and i wouldn't be surprised if both or one of them are true.
    to me, it definitely does seem that jim is suffering from serious mental distress and was probably experiencing a panic attack during the last moments of the game, and ended up offing himself as an impulsive decision.
    possibly PTSD mixed with severe anxiety of some sorts could have led to this-a kidnapping victim, a victim of attempted robbery or murder, or someone who had to deal with the terrifying fact that there's a serial killer around.
    maybe jim was nearly a victim of the serial killer, or he was the killer himself.

      i might be a little late, but my theory is that Jim doesn't have schizophrenia, but is rather a regular normal person. my thought was that the reason he was checking the closets was that he was paranoid, this is further supported when you search all the closets and then it says that you feel safe again. the thing is, there was never a monster or sort of demon, it was Jim's head. schizophrenia can do this, but Jim hadn't always been seeing things. as the days went on, and he got more news about the chemical plant, and also with the person messaging him, anxiety and stress were probably building up at an alarming rate. there was nothing outside his door. it was his brain tricking himself that there was, just like how paranoia does it. this ended up in him being terrified, especially because the person messaging him told him to "Be quiet". The reason he shot himself is because the broadcast was making sound, and in his head, the sound was making the 'monsters' come for him. He couldn't turn the broadcast off, so he did what I think most people would.

    My theory is that Jim may have paranoia it's a mental disorder that
    Is like you feel someone is in your house stalking you or trying to kill you
    Because he was shaking and panicking about someone in his house
    He may have hallucinations that trigger him to think that someone is in his house
    I think he was too stressed that's why he had hallucinations and he believed that someone/something is with him
    This game has some dark lore I love it Roblox players needs to make games with a great lore.

  • @yuriaishii
    @yuriaishii Před 9 měsíci

    Played this game about two months ago and was shocked to the core. It highlights paranoia, stress, anxiety, etc, given from simple news articles. (Feel free to skip this part!!) I've had a similar experience after watching the news with my parents, both were at my little brother's ball game and my older brothers weren't home then. I was doing my own thing and playing video games when a sudden wave of panic and fear washed over me. It had started to rain, and I knew nobody was home with me at the time, plus I accidentally skipped out on my medication that day due to waking up so late. Eventually, my brothers came home, but not without finding me huddled in a corner downstairs balling my eyes out because I thought someone was in my house. I don't have schizophrenia, but I do have ADHD-related paranoia and anxiety. (Over now!)
    I adore this game because of how much detail it highlights about these situations and how people go through them every single day, even though it happens for days in the game, it happens in real life too. Makes me wonder what happens if you never buy the black box (the gun) and if there's an alternate ending that you don't get a badge for, but is there.

Waking up at night Paranoid that something is wrong. Despite nothing being there physically you can't help but feel scared nonetheless. And the slightest bit of proof you were right can cause you to take Drastic Measures.

It is possible he didn't close it all the way and it opened. But it's when coincidences become something more than Just that to the one having an episode that causes them to take it to the extreme. Think about it. Jim wakes up at night scared after seeing stuff on the news. He begins to hear noises and sees a helicopter fly over his house. He boards up the windows despite being in an isolated place with a single tree. He's so paranoid no common sense could make him feel safe. A door opening despite nobody being there could be the final string to snap. He points the gun at the door. No response but he's in such a state that he turns it to himself.

    Theory: The chemical spill turned some creatures radioactive. It. Makes them deadly. As Jim got the information, it made him more anxious. The first few times he got up in the night were just his illusions. The last time, though, were those creatures. He would have been able to shoot the creatures, but instead shoots himself being too anxious about what's coming to him. Jim also got so stuck to his computer that he didn't board up the door. The computer just made him feel more tired and eventually led to him making worse decisions. He might have also been more brave if he could think better of the situation. He would have been able to control the gun.

    Just played and I already have such paranoia. This game took me 2 days to play 💀 Honestly feels like I was there. This is why I love Psychological Horror

    During when the computer randomly turned on, I can understand the reaction. When I was 8, I used to sleep with my door open because my mom slept with her door open so I felt safer.but my mom wasn't there and my grandma was watching me! So i was in the room and she went downstairs. Then I was walking to the bathroom, and the computer randomly turned on. I investigated and there was nothing, so i assumed it was just air, bc some of them can be sensitive. And 2 years later I was q0 and we found out someone had been living in our house secretly.

    I love Jim's computer so much when I played the game for the first time it disturbed me I love how it makes you feel uneasy throughout the entire game But in reality you won't being hunted down you were just going insane

    The black box itself and it disappearing showing the gun accompanied by the sound of the alert really reminds me of analogue horror. i hope the dev makes the lore deeper

    This is a very great game. Though, I wish things went into more depth. The whole chat room feature felt like wasted potential and didn’t serve much to the game. Maybe we could see a bit more of Jim’s day to day life instead of him just buying things and going to sleep.
    Other then that, I enjoy this game and wish to see more from the developer.

    My theory about this is that Jim is actually the person that’s making people Go missing, and due to psychological paranoia, is experiencing hallucinations, sometimes severe, like the text on the computer, which is why Jim is progressively ordering more “serious” items, such as the medkit or the paintball gun or, as a finale, the black cube. Due to this physiological paranoia (again), Jim isn’t knowing hes the culprit, as maybe in Night 4, when he Passes out without going to bed, is just him entering a world of hallucinations when he’s actually making the people go missing. This is a far Stretch, but I still think it’s true. If a Jim’s computer 2 comes out (which probably never will, because, well, he commit self die), I really want some more info, maybe some more endings in the first game.
