you don't need a person like me to tell you that alone was one of the worst Roblox horror games of recent times it's a blatantly dishonest front page Roblox horror game that serves absolutely zero purpose other than to capitalize off of the success of doors but what I do think interests me is that it is seen as the Tipping Point for most people terrible horror games have been everywhere on Roblox for literal years now games that have thousands of plays that don't seem to reflect the quality what
soever but that never really bothered people at least on the surface but why is specifically alone hated while other Roblox horror games are just overlooked well since this disposable game is a dead pile of nothing now I think it's my time I give my two cents regarding it I'm ready and the guy who talks about Niche Roblox games and I'm here to Enlighten you a bit oh it's very hard to argue that alone is not a ripoff of doors or at the very least trying to make money off of Doris's success there
are dozens of points within the game in its marketing that seeks to back this point and I'm going to go over a few of them the visual style very reminiscent of doors especially the animations in the Hood the clickbait monster and its respective ugc merchandise are very akin to doors almost a combination of seek and figure if that wasn't blatantly obvious enough and honestly copying doors is a valid thing for a Roblox game to do if you're just in it for the money then yeah kids are stupid and are
going to buy it but also it makes your game look like a piece of [ __ ] copying something beat for beat gives it a super easy comparison it makes it incredibly easy to pick apart and point out that it's just doors except from the dollar store for example upon playing the game I immediately noticed how shitty trying to get stuff out of the Gerards is compared to doors you think that you can just Spam the E key to quickly pick up everything but know you have to individually open and pick up every
single item and also there's an inventor limit and this is just the tips this is just the tip of the iceberg alone did more than just take a little inspiration from doors it just lacks creativity overall everything that carried this game was taken straight from doors its title is literally stylized similar to doors and the game is also for four players coincidentally like they just had to copy everything about doors foreign is a game that might as well have just been crafted by [ __ ] chat gbt
it's got all of the Roblox horror tropes here cool catchy title a big seven foot tall monster levels that consist of finding items while a monster chases you in a maze and the worst of all you have to pay the game to respawn also you rely on chocolates to regain your stamina I have no idea how the [ __ ] that works or why it's a mechanic you probably pass out and throw up if you tried that in real life also it's just kind of not really a fun mechanic at all the plot of alone is that you're in a
mansion and then you have to turn the generator on after it cuts out you go to the basement and then there's some horribly animated monster in there that tries to kill you while you repair the generator after that you literally walk from one end of the basement to the other and you win the game you see a lot of Roblox horror games attempt to have a plot in order to connect things or at the very least inject edgy story beats into their games in order to catch people's attention alone doesn't even
attempt to do anything there's no effort put into anything especially that cringy ass phone call at the beginning will be losing its power you do not want to be in the dark all alone so yeah there's a phone call at the beginning that's like really [ __ ] terribly done it's just some 18 year old trying to put on a Gravely voice in order to make himself sound old you know you can just do your real voice and it would be less cringe-worthy right there was a game named delightball by zikers that cam
e out in like 2014 and that game had phone calls and yeah it was obviously just some young kid doing it but it didn't seem distractingly annoying don't listen to the other one that may be talking to you he's just a distraction it's the monster trying to get you lost these switches we may never see the light of day again it does not matter that much if you're not an Emmy winning actor but the phone call would literally be better if they didn't do that weird ass cringe voice this problem honestly
could have just been avoided by not having the phone call at all because all it really does is waste time they could have just put tool tips on the screen to give your objective oh wait they already [ __ ] did that so yeah the phone call is redundant if the excuse for having the phone call is not to break the player's immersion then maybe these tool tips shouldn't be here and I mean it's not like this game is trying to be quality anyways foreign [Music] if you didn't play alone then don't worry
you're not missing out but yeah the monster that was plastered in the marketing everywhere actually isn't in the game well it is but it's just the ending cutscene it's literally just there for cheap marketing and somehow this is allowed I guess I thought the ages of clickbait games were left behind in 2013 but apparently not and I think the reason why this is off-putting to so many children is simply because kids love doors they clicked on the game and they played it for doors and they replayed
it after dying over and over again hoping to see this unnamed seek rip-off and they didn't get it so they're going to be mad about it let me put this into perspective most Roblox horror games have a like to dislike ratio of around 90 to 80 percent even the shitty and mid horror games have a 90 to 80 percent because they usually have a gimmick to distract kids from how bad that they are usually it's Unique visuals that get kids so wrapped up if they forget that the game that they're playing is ab
solute garbage so alone is one of the games that has a below average score on the leg to dislike ratio which basically means that a loan managed to piss off the very audience that it was trying to exploit the entire game is built off of manipulating children and it failed to do that for the most part some people apparently like this game alone is the new story based mystery horror game by Rel soft the game is set in a mansion with your character introduced as the new caretaker of the property in
its current form you need to perform a small number of tasks like powering a broken generator and finding an amulet in an underground Labyrinth while the aesthetic tasks creatures and items can all be compared to other games the story itself is unique enough to distinguish itself as a standalone game in the horror I'm expecting this rating to change as the game is updated and expanded but for now it's placed towards the lower end of the a tier let me know so yeah even if terrible Roblox horror
games have been around for years now alone seems to serve as the major Tipping Point for a lot of people because of how it opens its doors for criticism and when one takes just one second to question the game's quality it [ __ ] falls apart it crumbles all of the game's aspect from the manipulative marketing to the terrible game design all add up to a game with all of the prospects of lizzo in a 100 meter dash if there was any effort put into this game anywhere I would feel sorry for the person
that admitted that and like I said before there are many games like this not just bad games but games that have tried to copy doors before alone even came out like intrusion another terrible doors do that literally at the time that I was conceptualizing this video changed its title to intrusion better doors because it was getting no players before swiftly changing its name back to normal after it started to get players again but funnily enough intrusion is also a massive piece of [ __ ] and befo
re anybody comments this because just because I saw this [ __ ] on tick tock alone is not directly copying the mechanics of doors but it is considered a rip-off because it seeks to imitate and profit off of the success of doors I have to say this because apparently some people see this as an a-tier horror game also uh I forgot to mention this in the video apparently this game 600 uh K in debts anyways those are my thoughts regarding this massive piece of [ __ ] named alone there's also some othe
r [ __ ] in the game that I didn't even consider mentioning because it would just be a waste of time kind of like how the game itself wasted my time by forcing me to replay it every time that I died if you like this video be sure to subscribe like comment and I'll see in the next video bye are you [ __ ] game what give me [ __ ] are you [ __ ] serious should we continue this game is [ __ ] dude the monster wasn't even like like the the Sikh dupe wasn't even

if someone told me ALONE killed my family i'd believe them tbh
I'm disappointed that Alone turned out to be a cash grab. It initially looked decent and had the foundations to be a solid Roblox horror game, so I was expecting the game to be expanded eventually. However, as time has gone on, the more I realised that my A-tier rating aged like milk.
It's funny how the main villain of the game is barely mentioned or seen in the entirety of the story. At least with doors, figure and seek is a major part of the lore and is mostly seen throughout the game, but in Alone, he's seen for 5 minutes.
I got selected to test the game early. The reason the game was unplayable at launch was because the testers that were selected to test were not given the opportunity to. I've talked to my testing peers, and almost all of them who weren't super close with the developers, didn't get to test. They released the game KNOWING it was broken to capitalize off of the recognition of Kreekcraft and the success of Doors. Keep up the great content, thought I would just share some insider info though ;)
It's funny how if this game had been released just a few years earlier, it would've probably been considered a really good horror game. Potentially even replacing Doors itself. Roblox has really come a long way
In conclusion: Alone can get left "Alone" from the roblox community. Tear more front page games appart man it always gives me a big smile.
as someone who has played alone, the game was very buggy and seemed rushed for some stupid reason, probably because doors just came out and they saw profit in their eyes when making it. the monster was able to kill you in hiding spots, it killed me when i was across the map once, i only played it that one time because it was just that bad, it wasnt enjoyable in the lightest
What I don’t understand is DOORS is literally free and on ROBLOX too! There’s 0 reason to play this knockoff because both games are free and on ROBLOX. It’s absolutely baffling someone would rate this trash as A tier
In all honesty, I’d kill for a video explaining all the problems with intrusion I remember playing it and being genuinely intrigued by the intro gameplay. When I tell you my smile FADED when it switched to a doors copy, I mean it 😭. I did not finish that game, and I am NOT going through that long ass intro again after every death, I refuse too. Such a sad fate for a game that seemed GENUINELY interesting at first 😔
Wait no bc how did they get that much in debt 😭 Edit: So I read the Google doc and it doesn’t explain how the creator got into so much debt but I encourage everyone to look over the document. But essentially, the owners of the game were very scummy, creating fake promises and not paying their workers while working with a shady half-assed contract. I hope the people who were screwed over are able to get their money one day.
I first played this game a few days ago- immediately joined thinking “wow, blatant doors ripoff” and left with my experience being worse than my expectations
2:30 The funny thing is, Chocolate like that's existed IRL, It was called the D-Ration, and was packed with Caffeine and other stuff to keep soldiers alert and active when no more rations where available to eat.
i remember playing alone with my friends and it was the type of game that had awful controller support which didnt allow you to do some actions on keyboard if you have a controller connected to your PC. In general the game was very buggy and outright scummy, like when I entered the basement for the first time and got oneshotted out of a corner and greeted with a 100 robux revive prompt. It's just a cashgrab, like most recent Roblox "horror" games
2:14 This line is so accurate it hurts. Alone is so random and illogical it makes me wonder what the hell was the thought process of the devs when they were making this. It has ZERO replayability or any kind of fun mechanics. And aside from the cool appearance this game is empty, and it hurts me to hear that someone is 60k dollars in debt because of it.
As someone who does not play roblox anymore. Having been on the site for a decade or so. These videos are really entertaining as it just keeps me up to date with how doo doo Roblox has become.
What makes Doors a great horror game is the feeling that you're alone with these creatures and the incredible scripting done by LSPLASH makes it a game that tests your fear, I remember when I was actually scared of the enemies in the game screech forces you to pay attention ambush and rush require your quick action figure requires your patience seek is uh probably the least scariest part of the game but the sounds of his footsteps getting louder always makes me nervous ALONE is a shameless ripoff but at least it's not a horrible rip off like Enchanted Portals was to Cuphead
This game would have actually been acceptable as a horror game if it wasn't for the basic "escape the maze with the scary monster" trope
Playing it for the first time the lobby did not give me high hopes, and playing the actual game, I saw it was very unoriginal. I tried to stay positive, but one unnecessary death later, I was just done with it. Everything about it just seemed like a camping game with a doors styled coat of paint.
I cannot completely recall any of the Alone game, so I am going to summarize my experience based on what I can think of. Alone: - The chocolate animation and sound was the chocolate of all time - I saw one monster The maze part? I could not navigate, I don't know why not, other than what the hell is this game. That's about as memorable as the game will get, alright back to recess.
I knew this shit was bad before i finished it with my friends. We spent a total of 10+ minutes wandering around in the maze where you have to pick up the phone. Terrible ending too lol. Happy to see others are willing to die on this hill equally as I do
