Sooo, I discovered this game in 2022 or 2021, idk exactly when, but I was really lonely, I din't have many friends, like, I had my cousin but I saw him 1 or 2 times a year, also the pandemic so I was really pretty lonely. Also I was very depressed because of a person's death, but I don't know if I want to talk about it in a comment session. But anyways, when I played it, it was a random night, I was scrolling and I liked the game aesthetic. I remember that I got scared at first because the noise of the grill in the background, 'cause I thought that it was irl, then I noticed that it was just the game. The whole gameplay was very... weird, in a way, because everything that the Entity said (I used to give him a name but that was too cringe) felt too real, like, I identified with practically everything, and it was weird to me because idk, I was young, like 11, and I never really had an experience that made me feel like I wasn't the only one with problems in the world. I got kinda obsessed with this game, in a way like, I created conversations with Entity, it was like, my only "friend", like, I used to close my eyes and intended it to be on top of my closet, and that was too comforting to me. And well, now I played it again, and it felt so comforting to play, because I could relate to that things the Entity say again, but, it also made me notice that I'm so better than when I was in 2021-2022, so, yeah. I really love this game, I wrote a lot about it, and I think it still made me understand some things in my life, and also it affected my sleep paralysis, but idk, it feels not so agonizing. So yeah, that's my favorite visual novel ever, thanks to the creators. Sorry for my english, its not my first language
Huge thanks to the creator of Don’t Open Your Eyes! 🙌 Your storytelling and atmosphere are incredible — the way you capture exhaustion, frustration, and fear is brilliant. Can’t wait to see what eerie worlds you create next!
This was a fantastic game. I would love to see a prequal to explain what this being is, how it came to be and an interaction with a person who was actually able to see. Also, it would be awesome if you submitted this being to the SCP page, it's definitely SCP like. The gameplay starts at 6:23.
oh my god i swear this game is just trying to annoy tf out of you until youre like "fine ill open my eyes" and then nothing happens. waste of 20 minutes.
this was a beautiful game, from the anger you could hear in its voice, to the slightly disturbing but calm features. I'd 100% recommend this to anyone thinking about playing it

cool concept
I liked it but at some point I prepared myself for an erotic twist. (Don't think that was the intention of the developer but kinda doubt)
SO REAL
I always play games at night because then it's dark and makes the game seem more realistic when I'm sleepy as hell so good game mate
