Surviving the Night Against a Possessed Doll: a Mr. Hopp's Playhouse Game Review

Howdy! It's me, the sole writer of this blog! I'm back again to start off the month with yet another game review in this blog.

Mr. Hopp's Playhouse is a horror game developed and published by Moonbit Studios back in November 2019 (for pc), while the mobile counterpart was back in December 2020. The game is available to play in mobile and PC, I got mine from the Play Store while for the PC, it's available on Steam. The game weighs around 19MB (Later it would get bigger but still below 50-75MB), making it small and playable on many phones. As another indie horror game, this game really stood out among those I've played before. So let's get to why I got to that conclusion. 

The Story

The game begins with Ruby, a girl who recently got her hands on a rabbit doll that was given by her now deceased grandmother. Unlike other dolls, this particular one gives her the creeps up to the point she would claim that it's dangerous and is best kept away from her. Hearing this, her parents just don't believe it and tell her that she should take good care of Mr. Hopp (the doll's name) as it's the last gift/keepsake of her grandmother. But all would change in one unfortunate night, where Mr. Hopp shows its true form. That night, Ruby will have to keep herself alive against the lingering danger of that doll and uncover the secrets about it. 

The Gameplay


The control of this game involves the use of joystick, to move Ruby around the house, and other buttons, as in to interact with other items. While playing the game, it gave me the same feeling I had when I played FNAF (Five Nights at Freddy's), as in the game we'll be always on the lookout for Mr. Hopp to avoid the jumpscare. To me, the game owes its horror and intense atmosphere to its visual (how gloomy and dark the house is at night) and the music. The game is best to be played with a headphone or any ways to help you listen to the surrounding as its the best way to detect Mr. Hopps (it has its own music when its about to show up) and to experience the game overall. The game also has multiple endings, two of which I've already got. Throughout my gameplay, I didn't encounter any bug so that's a plus!

Overall Thought

In the end, I find the game very enjoyable. It sure is good to feel some good old jump scare after all those visual novel, adventure, and RPG horror games. The atmosphere while playing it darn good, so palpable especially when you use your headphone. I sometimes struggled with the control, as sometimes I pressed the wrong one knowing how intense the game is, but that's on me. All in all, I would give this game an 8.7 out of 10. Well done Moonbit studios! Can't wait to play your next games! Oh, and speaking of next games, the game already has its sequel released recently, so be sure to download both of them to see the game yourself! Until next time, folks!

New Hobby : The Art of Toy Photography

Most people still think that the only thing toy collectors do to their toys is simply as an ornament. A piece that only acts merely for display purposes, but the current stigma is actually wrong! Truth is there are tons of stuff you can do with your toys, the one I'm putting on the menu now is an art called Toy Photography. Toy photography is just another form of photography, but it specifies in using toys as the subject. It can be done both indoor and outdoor, even underwater as long as you have the right equipment. It also uses the same equipment as the usual photography with an exception of the toy's support utilities (Figure stands, dioramas, extra lighting, etc). To me, it's a perfect activity for toy collectors including me as a way to put your toys in action! From many professional toy photographers I know, there are 3 main points of toy photography, they are: 1. Bringing the toys to life Most of the toy shots I've seen are so good they manage to chan...
