Rayll Has done it again ! Fears to Fathom series is one of those horror series that gets better with every new drop Ironbark lookout was one of the most fun horror games that I've played thus far. Ironbark lookout is the best within the series.
The game did a great job putting me through what it was really like to be in this crazy ahh lookout building, fighting for my life and all. Atmosphere was amazing, and every routine task played well into the game.
Fears to fathom 4 has something unique as every single episode has. This time, the main story is about firelookout and that is perfect. I was confused what to do sometimes, but I think this is still a really nice game everyone should try.
- The best produced episode so far in terms of art style and visuals
- Intense story, tension stays during the last night especially
- The environment is more interactive than ever with small Easter eggs and uses for just about everything in the game
- You pee, in some fun ways
Cons:
- Very minimal exploration especially during the ladder half of the game. I wish the escape from [SPOILER] involved approaching them and making your way back to safety
- Nights get repetitive, I feel like the daily tasks before moving onto the next night get old very quickly and makes the middle portion of the game feel hollow compared to the final night
I really enjoyed it. Had it's fair share of creepy moments and the most interactivity I've seen in the series to date. Probably the prettiest looking game in the series and loved that you could piss from a tower lmao Anyways here's a live stream I did.
This was amazing!! I Feel really sorry for Jack. Like I would be terrified if I were him. Speaking of jack that cameo was awsome XP MAAAAAAYBEEEE I'll be in the game too at some point lol
These games just keep getting better and better, it's unbelievable! Amazing game from start to finish, great interactions with mutiple characters and really good voice acting for Connor! I can't wait for episode 5, keep up the great work. Definitely some of the best horror games ever.
Finally! Episode 4. I swear every single episode you do, there is new interactions & it gets better. Each story gets creepy on it's own too! I cannot wait for more!
The very first episode was one of the first games that I played for this channel ! So these games hold a special place in my heart ! These games have improved so much since the first one!! The driving was a lot easier and there's just so much you can do in the game. Very fun and some really good jumpscares!
What a freaking game! Without spoiling anything, it was probably my favorite FtF yet! And as an underrated surprise, you added the ability to wash your hands in this entry...11/10
I really like how these stories could happen in real life... This one and the first episode are probably one of my favorites and the most dangerous scenarios in the series...
THIS ONE REALLY GOT ME SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS!!!
Every instalment of the Fears To Fathom series just keeps on getting better and better. Sure, there's a few jump scares here and there but it's the foreboding, slow build tension that makes these episodic games so great.
Each time going down for firewood made me feel anxious.
Every character felt like a suspect in some Twilight Zone paranoid fuelled nightmare.
Each episode has brought something new and IronBark Lookout is no different - from the mechanics of taking wind/temperature and submitting reports, to making sure the stove is on at night and eventually hiding in a porta potty because some lunatic is on the search for you, you feel that everyone could be a suspect in this well crafted, gem of an indie horror.
Just in time for Halloween, too.
Only slight criticism (and it's a small one) is that the ending felt just a teensy bit rushed. I'm sure the ambiguity is part of the package, but wanted to know if any of the people involved were 'in on it' so to speak. And what happened to Connor?
They brought it again! What an amazing game. Great cameos and mechanics all around. Builds up a lot of suspense and doesn’t let you get comfortable. Get this game! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this series.

Incredible game! Loved the new episode, it was so spooky! Can't wait for the next episode!!
What another amazing entry to this series. Loved the firewatch vibes.
The scares were definitely there, and immersive atmosphere.
Fave moment was when a human man moved by motorhome by walking into it.
