Hi Gab, thank you so much for playing The Painscreek Killings! Reflecting back when we released TPK as our first game, we didn't know anything about marketing nor how to promote the game. It resulted in only 50 people buying TPK in the first week of release. We were so devastated at that time after 5 years of development. But because of so many players and streamers support, we could survive and are able to develop our 2nd game, Scene Investigators now. Thank you so much for picking up our title for your stream!
It's an excellent game, I've been trying to find something with the same vibe since I found it and I'm really looking forward to Scene Investigations! Sorry to hear that such an excellent game went so unoticed!
I'm so sad that I have to play in on my laptop and not my TV. I wish you'd gotten the chance to put it on the Switch or something. The game is everything I love. Thank you for putting it out.
1:32:02 I completely agree, I am adopted and I was the 6th out of 7 kids my mom had. All of my half siblings were taken away by CPS due to her drug use. She ended up going to jail when she was 4 months pregnant with me because she was found with drugs in her system and on her. She didn’t get out until I was 3 months old so she had to start planning my adoption since my father wasn’t in the picture. It’s not always the parents fault either. I do wish my mom had not done drugs at the time but I also do realize it was an addiction she had since she was a teenager and it’s very hard to quit. She also most likely wouldn’t have been able to take care of me even if I wasn’t adopted. I actually thank her for putting me up for adoption because I have an amazing 72 year old mom (I’m 16, the age difference gets me everytime and I love hearing her stories of back in the day 😁) who allows me to see her. My biological mom did get clean when I was around 5 and was able to see me without supervision after about a year of being clean. I have contact with most of my half siblings. I’m very thankful for my biological mom for allowing me to have a chance at a good life. Not every child that is adopted has had a good experience and I’m very thankful and grateful that I am in a good home.
I’ve been DYING to see someone, ANYONE, do a play through of the Painscreek Killings and now my absolute fave is taking the plunge! You’ll feel like a real detective by the end, so worth all the notes and pictures you take. Can’t wait to watch, so excited!!
Yooooo, I’ve only been watching Gab for a week but I’m psyched she’s playing The Painscreek Killings. I wish there were more deductive exploration type games like this out there
@@Sam_T_ Nancy Drew is for kids and I don't mean that in any offensive way. It has so much hand holding involved unlike this game. They are two totally different vibes.
frogware's sherlock holmes series is _kinda_ like this! some of them leaned more towards action and quicktime events than others, but I would recommend them!
just as a heads up: the makers of The Painscreek Killings have a new release coming for 2023 called Scene Investigators. A demo is out! You have to investigate a crime scene and solve a murder. Looks really good.
I loved playing this game, the atmosphere was so good! I was writing notes, making a whole timeline of events, cross checking people's stories, etc. It really engages the player! 🕵️♂️
This type of horror is very well done... no dumb loud cheap scares.. just atmosphere is all you need and subtle things, THAT is scary, this game is amazing...
Right? I much prefer these horror games to the likes of Outlast, 5 Nights At Freddy's, etc. I hate loud jumpscares, I'm a big wuss and so these creepy unsettling games like The Su*cide of Rachel Foster or What Remains of Edith Finch (not as horror-esque, but still creepy) are perfect for me.
This game was so good, I've been looking for other games like it ever since. Really deserves more attention so I'm delighted you're playing it, can't wait to see what you think!
I know this isn't the exact same, but play Outer Wilds if you haven't already!!! With the DLC. Don't watch anything about it, just go ahead and play. It's a game you can only play once, and that's it. It's not a scene investigator, it's set in space, or rather, in a singular small solar system, and the mystery it presents is all across it and maybe even beyond. It's my favorite game of all time, and I know that's a hell of a bombastic statement, but I mean it. The music, the art, the presentation, the story, the characters, the environments, the... Everything. I love this game. Couldn't recommend it enough.
If you like investigation type of games I'd suggest Sherlock Holmes Crimes & Punishments and The Devil's Daughter. Really nice plot in between cases, fun figuring everything out and tbh great visuals. Sherlock Holmes Chapter One is also recommended ^-^
I am torn between watching this series and wanting to play it for myself. A mystery game where you're not having to deal with supernatural monstrosities or shootouts? Man this is beautiful. Thanks for sharing, would have missed otherwise!
Omg!! That’s exactly what I’ve been thinking!! Like I desperately want to play it first then come back and watch but I’m soo hooked I don’t want to have to wait. I got confused on who is who so I’m rewatching this before watching the final part she posted. And that is already taking a stupid amount of self control. But it’s the only way I can feel like I’m puzzling along side her lol.
@@ekamarie6632 In a lot of cases when Gab or someone else plays a relatively obscure indie game that I REALLY fall in love with, I send the devs what I can by buying off Steam or Epic or whatever other platform just to have it in my library. This is a rare case of my really wanting to avoid spoilers though, so yeah it's different haha. Guess I'll be coming back to finish the video in a few weeks maybe XD
wow, your timing is impeccable. i just tried to play this game a few weeks ago, but i realized i just cannot do first person games without getting nauseous, so i had to quit it. but i literally looked up if you had played it before bc i wanted to watch a playthrough, and of course you hadn't. so this could NOT have come at a more perfect time. looking forward to watching it on a smaller screen and without personal involvement lol for some reason i can WATCH others play first person games edit: i probably would have quit the game anyway after i saw the creepy girl. love watching horror but i cannot play it myself
I don't think I would have ever played a game like this, but I was HOOKED the entire time. You seriously find some of the best games to play. The invitation to take notes as you're walking through is world really amps up the immersion as well.
I'm so glad you go back and play older games! I have never heard of this game but it is sooo good! I'm having such a great time sipping coffee in a cozy blanket and trying to figure out the mystery! Gabs streams/videos are always the highlight of my day!
@@EzratheRift Perhaps that was badly phrased; I meant a online multiplayer game of Clue. With like proximity chat and stuff. It would be a disaster and I'd love it
YESSSS i remember playing this when it first came out and i was desperately waiting for some of my favorite youtubers to play it but somehow none of them have ever gotten around to it. this made me so happy, gonna make myself a cup of tea and have a nice cosy evening. :) btw very curious to see if i still remember the story lol
OMG HAHAHAH at 39:36 right at this moment my dog pushed the door to my bedroom open to go in the living room and then Gab said "Did I just hear a door?" this was very meta for me. I was like wait what...
I have had this going while I’ve been working and my ears have perked up several times because it’s so interesting! Excited to actually get to sit down and watch this with my full attention later!
Often, when I get stuck on these sorts of games, instead of reading a guide or trying to search and somehow avoid spoilers, I will simply find a blind playthrough and watch for a while until the person I'm watching gives me an idea for how to progress. In the case of Painscreek, I didn't know you could get to the hospital, so I played for quite a while, doing as much as I could, before poking around RUclips to find a playthrough to watch to get some ideas. (I'll come back and watch the rest once I'm caught up!) This is a long and convoluted way of telling you that _I played this game for six hours and until 30 minutes into this video, I had no idea there was a ghost._ :') I have just been collecting clues totally oblivious, going, "Weird how the music in this game is occaisionally just spooky for no reason!" Running around Painscreek playing the idiot who gets killed in a horror movie because they just don't believe there's anything spooky going on.
This game, as a whole, reminds me of my favorite mission in Morrowind. You find this Big labyrinth of tunnels filled with different numbered chests and no keys for them... Then you find One key, attached to it a number. There are some thirty chests, and each one has a different key for a different chest. You go from chest to chest to chest, tirelessly searching the tunnels and Eventually opening that final chest for a Quite worth while weapon. Just, in this game, you keep getting a key for a new place with a key to a new place with a new key for a new place, with a great mystery, and I LOVE IT!
Saw this thumbnail and rememebred I wanted to play this game and, honestly, was afraid that any spoilers would make it less fun to play on my own. So I bought it, played it and here I am six hours later ready to watch Gab's video, spoiler free :)
I love the vibe of this! I think this is my idea of a perfect murder mystery game! Just enough creepiness to be suspenseful, quite realistic, but not boring. And lots of interactive objects. So cool! Can't wait to see the rest😱
Wow! It sure takes me back. I played it when I was a teen and it awoke the detective inside of me (I also found this game so relaxing I used to play videos of its gameplay to sleep whenever I had insomnia lol)
I played some of this game but I got so lost and confused on what to do, hopefully I can use this video for a guide, Gab. I'm happy to see you checking this out.
Gab thank you for playing this … I was trying to decide if I wanted to get this game but was unsure until now! It looks amazing! You’re doing great work and your entire way of playing games is very calming to me. Much love
1:49:23 also gab just to clarify, Charles wasn't against Trisha and Scott, it was just Vivian. You read a diary from Charles earlier where he talked about the affair yes, but in the same diary he mentioned Scott and how he knows Trisha fancied him and how Charles was okay with it. So interesting theory and I think it's likely but Charles didn't recognize Scott or forgot he put a son in adoption so idk I'm confused on that. The entry is at 1:31:29 ish Edit: Charles having an affair and a possible illegitimate child makes a lot of sense but the diary entry earlier about Charles liking Scott is throwing me for a loop. Still a lot to uncover though so who knows
i have exams coming up, but i'm watching right now as i take a break from studying and thinking it'll be fun to take notes with you as the journey/investigation goes along. i'll be doing that as soon as my tasks ease up a bit. thank you gab for another chill and interesting video!
1:49:02 - Oh my God. I am going to go ahead and call it now. Scott is Charles' child. He was dating his either half-sister or his full sister, Trisha. Perhaps while Vivian had been pregnant or something, Charles was out there diddling around like the douch-canoe he is, but asking to keep a photo in a photo album that shows pictures from way back when they were younger... I don't know... I just have a hunch... I am going to come back once the game is finished to see if I was on the right path or not, so stay tuned, present me! Your future you awaits! 1:49:27 - OH MY GOD WE WERE ON THE SAME LINE OF THINKING!!! LMAO
i actually watched the gameplay of this by someone else long ago and absolutely loved it! And this is the first time i'm rewatching a gameplay only because i love this game and because Gab is playing it! Ah the nostalgia!
I like this, the tinkling piano music is very reminiscent of Scratches as are the footsteps. You can clearly see the influence here and that's no bad thing.
I got TPK as part of a bundle and decided to play it one day. Not my normal type of game but I couldn’t stop playing! I took so many notes and it took me two days…I missed a few small things but finished it and now I want more!
I've had this game in my Steam library for a while now, intending to play it at some point, and finally took the plunge yesterday when I was looking for something to watch and saw this in my saved Watch Later videos. 👀🔎 Wanted to play through it myself before I spoiled anything, and it's been a blast! These games scratch a particular itch I have; a beautiful whodunit that's super well written and engaging. I'm quite happy now that I can watch you start to work through it, Gab~! (I somehow never realized you could get onto the roof like that! Dang.)
started watching.... then realised I had to stop and go play this one myself first. just finished the game and WOW!!!!! Now i can't wait to watch Gab's playthrough and see how it all goes. :D
I remember playing this game for the first time and I wish I could like wipe my memory of it and play it again. It was probably the best detective game I've ever played just for the ambience alone and the ending.
I'm not normally one to buy a game based on watching someone play it but this one was an exception for me. I'm excited for more parts of this and to explore it on my own.
I grew up on the Nancy Drew series and this is my favorite game of all time!!! So excited to see you playing 😍🥰 I hope you enjoy it half as much as I do!
Absolutely obsessed with watching you play this game, can’t wait for the next part and hopefully can catch the stream so I won’t have to wait for the video! 😁💜
Oh god, I'm so excited! I was hoping you or CJU had played it since it seemed like something you both would like, but a quick channel search showed that neither of you had played it. And now here you go. I'm bouncing in my chair right now.
I've been subscribed to Jack's channel for prolly 50 years, preface. I've recently started really getinng into Gab's content. I like to look up origins or artists I like, so naturally I finally decided to look up Gabs'. My biggest takaway here is that Gab is freaking jacking and that's awesome!
I played this game with my partner spectating last October; we were investigating the hospital and he had just looked up a guide to see if there were any jumpscares. He told me no, there weren't. Two minutes later, I'm walking out of the one area with the doctor's keycard and WHAM the lights all go out. I think I about busted his eardrum screaming in fright. It's a really good game, though. I wish there were more like it, honestly, though it looks like the studio that made this is making another game that's in the same vein of investigating murders. Have fun and good luck with the mystery, Gab!
Ahhh so hyped that you’re playing this!! I literally looked it up when I finished this game cause I wanted to see you play it so badd. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did

It's an excellent game, I've been trying to find something with the same vibe since I found it and I'm really looking forward to Scene Investigations! Sorry to hear that such an excellent game went so unoticed!
If you could make a Mac or PlayStation compatible version, I’d buy this in a second
I'm so sad that I have to play in on my laptop and not my TV. I wish you'd gotten the chance to put it on the Switch or something. The game is everything I love. Thank you for putting it out.
This game feels like Nancy Drew and Silent Hill had a cozy little detective baby. I love it.
Im ten minutes in but this comment terrifies me lmao
It's such a good thing everyone in the village kept such detailed diaries. 😂
Also, gab breaking the game and putting herself in jail... hilarious LOL!
right away too lmao like you see the message about bugs and think "ah, that's not super likely" but then it happens
0:19 "the game is 5 years old, it won't have any bugs"
12:30 **locks herself into the cell**
lol I had a bug where I couldn't enter the mayor's house cause I'd take one step away from the gate and promptly fall through the ground.
Gab: imagine the girl is just starring at us through the window right now.
Me: STOP. stop that, RIGHT. NOW.
😂😂😂😂 love it.
It's not even scary bro
@@FuriosasWarRigwho cares lmao
After the girl's first appearance, I've been on edge like no other horror game. The fact that she was just watching gave me hella goosebumps.
It felt like a comfy little mystery game until she showed up! Then suddenly every corner had tension behind it!
Same, I literally just looked up the genre of the game in case I missed that this was a horror game lmao
SAME I am playing it at the same time and it is TERRIFYING because it just feels so scary
@@doubledanger10And it was all for nothing bc I didn’t see her again until the ending (I was shitting myself)

Watch her Nancy Drew series, it’s similar
@@Sam_T_ Lmao Nancy Drew is not in any way similar to this.
Watch The Council like this but more weird.

I cannot unhear the lion roars every time you open or close a drawer😂
This type of horror is very well done... no dumb loud cheap scares.. just atmosphere is all you need and subtle things, THAT is scary, this game is amazing...
well, one loud jump scare at least - the hospital lights turning off
I completely agree! Good horror is atmospheric, it seeps into you and leaves you usettled.
Right? I much prefer these horror games to the likes of Outlast, 5 Nights At Freddy's, etc. I hate loud jumpscares, I'm a big wuss and so these creepy unsettling games like The Su*cide of Rachel Foster or What Remains of Edith Finch (not as horror-esque, but still creepy) are perfect for me.
@@DeeFightingDreamer I like the ones you mentioned that you dislike as well, I still find them to be good horror games, especially outlast.

Neither have I. It's one of those games I wish I could play again for the first time.
Same :)
Waiting for their Scene Investigators - suppose to be released next year
I know this isn't the exact same, but play Outer Wilds if you haven't already!!! With the DLC. Don't watch anything about it, just go ahead and play. It's a game you can only play once, and that's it.

@@shiva12000 I hope you end up loving it as much as I did! I wish I could replay that one. Have fun!

You being excited to take notes is why you are my go to channel to watch.

Minute 1:31:18
For anyone wondering, that painting is in fact a Monet, it’s La Grenouillère. It’s a nice painting. That’s all ❤
The editing on this vid is so good. The piano zooms were so funny.

Stopppppp this game healed the hole that the Nancy drew series left, soooo happy to see Gab play this! Great video thanks a bunch x
This is so fuuuuuun!!!! I love Nancy's games, but this silent investigation with creepy undertones really does it for me
I have a bunch of games on my Steam Wishlist that I can never quite bring myself to buy. This is one of them. Thanks for doing the playthrough!
"The thick plotens...." Gab - 1:20:33. I love this content
This is one of those games where I wish I could go back and forget it all just to play again. I loooooved it!

In case anyone else was curious about it, the Latin on the pin reads "ex nihilo nihil fit", or "from nothing, nothing comes"- something like that.
I love how excited Gab got at the prospect of taking notes lol
gab: why is it scary 🥺😇
also gab: **why is it spicy** 👺👹
fun fact: the "lions roar" we often hear on movies is actually a tiger.
Yeeees you're finally playing this!! I played this years ago, it's so different and so much fun!!
That whole video and not a single ad, that was pleasant.
i actually watched the gameplay of this by someone else long ago and absolutely loved it!
And this is the first time i'm rewatching a gameplay only because i love this game and because Gab is playing it!
Ah the nostalgia!
OMG! Enjoy Gab - playing this was one of my favourite murder / mystery experiences. Total gem.
I can't believe you're finally playing this game, it's amazing, I'm so excited!!!
I loved this game! I'm so excited to see you playing it
Finally some free time to watch this! And right off the bat, Evelien is being the absolute cutest little bean

Gab time before I have to go to class is my fav, starts off my day with ✨serotonin✨
I like this, the tinkling piano music is very reminiscent of Scratches as are the footsteps. You can clearly see the influence here and that's no bad thing.
I got TPK as part of a bundle and decided to play it one day. Not my normal type of game but I couldn’t stop playing! I took so many notes and it took me two days…I missed a few small things but finished it and now I want more!
I've had this game in my Steam library for a while now, intending to play it at some point, and finally took the plunge yesterday when I was looking for something to watch and saw this in my saved Watch Later videos. 👀🔎 Wanted to play through it myself before I spoiled anything, and it's been a blast! These games scratch a particular itch I have; a beautiful whodunit that's super well written and engaging. I'm quite happy now that I can watch you start to work through it, Gab~!
(I somehow never realized you could get onto the roof like that! Dang.)
Watched this whole stream live but had to come back and rewatch the moment we saw the girl watching us from the woods, one of my favourites!!
Gab almost makes horror games not scary, but they're still unnerving
started watching.... then realised I had to stop and go play this one myself first. just finished the game and WOW!!!!! Now i can't wait to watch Gab's playthrough and see how it all goes. :D
one of my favourite games in the world, it's so underrated. The atmosphere of it is absolutely unmatched
I remember playing this game for the first time and I wish I could like wipe my memory of it and play it again. It was probably the best detective game I've ever played just for the ambience alone and the ending.
I'm not normally one to buy a game based on watching someone play it but this one was an exception for me. I'm excited for more parts of this and to explore it on my own.
Oooh! I love this game so much and I'm glad to see you playing it. I wish I could find more like this one, it was so good. 🥺
Listening to her mimic the locked door sound is my new favorite thing.
35:41 *door lock noise* me and Gab at the same time: “waka waka”
I grew up on the Nancy Drew series and this is my favorite game of all time!!! So excited to see you playing 😍🥰 I hope you enjoy it half as much as I do!
The edit of it zooming in along with the piano music at 17:33 made me laugh. Good editing
This game looks good. I watched another RUclipsr play it a few years ago but didn't see the end. I love watching your playthroughs 😊❤️
Absolutely obsessed with watching you play this game, can’t wait for the next part and hopefully can catch the stream so I won’t have to wait for the video! 😁💜
Omg Gab! This is one of my favorite games, I absolutely love the idea of an open world mystery! I'm so happy to see you playing it.
Absolutely LOVE this game, a great detective experience.
Glad you're playing it :)
I absolutely love this game. The puzzles are so deep
Such a captivating game! I had never heard of it. Looking forward to the rest of the series. :)
Oh god, I'm so excited! I was hoping you or CJU had played it since it seemed like something you both would like, but a quick channel search showed that neither of you had played it. And now here you go. I'm bouncing in my chair right now.
Oh my god…yes CJU playing this would be so good too!
I can’t help but laugh every time she opens or closes a drawer now 😂
I've been subscribed to Jack's channel for prolly 50 years, preface. I've recently started really getinng into Gab's content. I like to look up origins or artists I like, so naturally I finally decided to look up Gabs'. My biggest takaway here is that Gab is freaking jacking and that's awesome!
I played this game with my partner spectating last October; we were investigating the hospital and he had just looked up a guide to see if there were any jumpscares. He told me no, there weren't. Two minutes later, I'm walking out of the one area with the doctor's keycard and WHAM the lights all go out. I think I about busted his eardrum screaming in fright.
It's a really good game, though. I wish there were more like it, honestly, though it looks like the studio that made this is making another game that's in the same vein of investigating murders. Have fun and good luck with the mystery, Gab!
So glad you played this! I played it years ago shortly after it was released. It was SO GOOD! EQ Studios does some amazing work! :D
OMG IM SO HAPPY YOU ARE PLAYING THIS GAME!! Wish you the best Gabs, stay safe and have fun!
I'm really enjoying this! Can't wait for more!
This is such a cool game! I might have to play it and come back to watch the rest of your play through later.
I'm so into this! Perfect mystery game! Can't wait for more!
The music gives courage the cowardly dog vibes and I'm here for it. I love watching you play horror games.
Gab - I love your channel and everything you do, your content is always so great and relaxing!
Ahhh so hyped that you’re playing this!! I literally looked it up when I finished this game cause I wanted to see you play it so badd. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did
"I don't think I've ever been this nosy" Girl you play Nancy Drew, you have been twice as nosy XD
This is such a feel-good channel, I love that I found my way here! ❤️
This story is pretty well crafted. It feels like a Poirot.
Always love a mystery game and I'm super excited you get to write things down
