The Crow's Eye is a first-person horror adventure game. It was developed by the independent Spanish studio 3D2 Entertainment. We play as a young man who is trapped in the abandoned building of the Medical University in Crowswood against his own will. The building was closed in 1947 after a couple of students disappeared without a trace. We will have to not only find our way out of that place, but also discover its dark secrets.
The Crow’s Eye for PC is a first-person horror adventure game developed by a small Spanish studio, 3D2 Entertainment. It was inspired by folk tales and hit games like Bioshock and Amnesia: The Dark Descent. The game offers an engaging story and the unique atmosphere created by things seemingly not important, like a ray of light going through a hole in the wall.
Medical University in Crowswood was closed in 1947 after a group od students disappeared without a trace there. Twenty years later, a young man is trapped inside that building as a part of an experiment which he did not agree to participate in. To escape, he will have to discover its secrets and find out the connection between the building and the event from twenty years ago. All of that happens under a watchful eye of a mysterious observer.
Gameplay in The Crow’s Eye for PC is presented from the first-person perspective and focuses mainly on exploration and solving riddles and puzzles. To solve them, we have to use our intellect and items found along the way, just like in the point-and-click adventure games. We will also find documents and audio and video recordings here and there in the building. Their contents will eventually lead us to the discovery of the reasons behind the 1947 dissapearance. Before that, however, we will have to finish nine levels the developers have created.
Visuals in The Crow’s Eye for PC are on a decent level. Rooms of the university’s building are diversified. Developers paid much attention to the play of lights and, from time to time, players may be entertained by interesting visual effects, like the distortion of the screen. Naturally, The Crow’s Eye also has an atmospheric soundrack that creates a mood fitting for the game.

Game Ratings for The Crow's Eye Video Game.
COGconnected: 72 / 100 by Michael Chow
The music in the game matches the atmosphere extremely well, and contributes much to the psychological horror that the game emits.
Twinfinite: 3 / 5 by Chaz Miller
All in all, The Crow's Eye is an interesting title with an interesting enough story, but with some hurdles to uncovering that story and the world in which it's set. Its dedication to dangling the carrot of freedom — and the conclusion of the convoluted tale — is commendable, and players will spend much of the game feeling as though the end is just around the next corner or past the next locked door.
Game Rant: 3.5 / 5 by Rob Gordon
The Crow's Eye throws out the recent rules of first-person horror to create an atmospheric and daunting puzzle-based experience, albeit one that does not always gel smoothly.
