@@toshj177 not even a downward spiral. he's deep into the crazy as of the bus scene. he might be someone pulling the strings seeing his fancy shades and tux. might be the Puppet Combo equivalent of The Joker?
Man, the visceral creepiness of that intro, not even the serial killer stuff, but just being a woman trying to get somewhere alone in a city at night. Complete with gross comments and creepy guy.
Lol yes, it's great attention to detail!! My family and I used to live in a run-down area when we first moved to the city, and the paranoia feeling is spot on!
Him getting right up in the mic with the gameplay + music starting and "The Nintendo Entertainment System..." had me pausing to laugh it's so accurate.
I like how slashers are revealed to be only human yet have super human strength and durability. Tragic backstory = can lift a guy off his feet one-handed and cut through bone and muscle like it is a literal piece of cake.

@@therealcroman Yeah, exactly. And besides that, how in the actual fuck did that woman-killing bitch come back after being shot 3 times, bleeding AND being dissected? She's got to have some superhuman powers for one reason or the other, no human being would be alive after that.
There is something about puppet combo games that i cant get enough of. Even though its pixelated, they manage to create SUCH an amazing atmosphere, i find myself rewatching playthroughs all the time.
The references to Skifreak, Tonight It Follows (at PeePaw’s) and Babysitter Bloodbath (in the Urban Legends comic) make me wish for a Puppet Combo Cinematic Universe.
yeah, same. I actually throught Puppet Combo was building toward a cinematic universe with Night Shift, Stay Out of the House, Feed Me Billy, etc. and i've been a bit bummed that he doesn't really seem interested. It's so frustrating in fact that it's one of the inspirations for my game #NotSSGame that I'm making now. Kind of like, being sick of waiting for others to make the game I want to see, so i'm making it. RL Stine is the same way. He has LOTS of Goosebumps books but no desire to connect them all into a big story. So that's what I'm doing, in my own way.
@@westingtyler1 Some people just wanna tell standalone stories. Everything doesn't have to be connected all the time. Not to mention it can also convolute things and make life harder for the devs.
@@samwisegamgee1243 yeah, you're totally right. some people wanna tell standalone stories, and it does complicate things for the devs. but it's not what I want, so i'm disappointed. both things can be true.
I found that bus interaction at 9:19 to be the creepiest part of the game for me. something about the timing, his request to sit beside, and the dialogue gave me a visceral "gtfo" reaction
@@Mayhzon have you ever any slasher horror movies? He is the creepy guy that gives the warning about the killer They never really make any sense to the plot
@@maritofuentes4690 Yeah, but it's a dumb trope honestly. "Horror" material that sticks closer to believability is much better. The more cliche, overused plot points and tropes you put into a story, the less believable (read: immersive) it is.
@@Mayhzon Yeah good point But i really get the feeling that puppet combo is planning something for that guy They tend to be good horror and they don't use too much cliches like this one
@@Mayhzon Honestly I feel that is kind of the point here. It's dumb and schlocky and makes little sense but that's the vibe the game is going for in the first place and seems to be kind of paying homage to those type of horror plots. To be honest the whole plot of this is really dumb since it requires a pregnant woman to ignore the fact that there is a serial killer targeting pregnant women in that very same area and go out at night alone to a secluded laundromat.
I'm at that bit of the video, and it's never a case of 'too young' with me, it's always 'Not American/never had access to that channel'. Was it a 2am advert on the TV?
I kinda had a feeling the thing with Louis was a red hering. It was too obvious, and too often mentioned. It would of been too easy for him to be the killer. When it was clear that they couldn't find Samanthas body, I felt it was enough of a hint to suggest the true killers identity.
I really enjoy how run down and dirty the environment feels in this game. Reminds me a lot of the city in Night Ripper. Sara lamenting how boring Liam is with sex was really unexpected lol. Though it makes me like her even more.
Yeah, really gives the grimy and uncomfortable vibes of like 70s slashers and giallos. Stuff like Maniac or Basketcase. I like a lot of modern horror but I feel like this genre/niche in particular has been lacking for a while.
Just got home from work, it’s raining (more like fucking flooding but still) just showered, got snacks and pjs on, and John uploaded a video (: simple times like these make me love being alive! Love you John!
There is something extremely familiar about this game; Some game John has played years ago with a near identical start involving a woman, ranting about her idiot man and worrying he won't prove up to being a father, carrying out mundane chores in a ratty apartment. The sense of Deja-vu is honestly more creepy than the story itself.
The part with the mortician at the end seriously gives me the same vibe as that one movie about a mortician and his son doing an autopsy of a witch where freaky things happen lol. 'The Autopsy of Jane Doe'. Man, that was a movie.
36:50 See what happens when you eat peanut butter and jelly on sourdough? You get spooked by a weirdo screaming like a kid outside and throw your sandwich and get your jelly all over the walls
game is named "bloodwash" the first thing you do is literally zone into a bloody washing machine, i dont know how to feel about this but im so in at the moment
So the creepy guy on the bus was psychic because he knew about the pregnancy and impending danger but he also happened to be wrong that the main character was going to die.
? Or he knew what was going on in the news or newspaper and she was probably showing. It was already noted that pregnant women were being harmed. Idk what leads to this psychic idea
@@yeahgirl11 okay, I take that back, but there's nothing to suggest he was a psychic. More like the same type of threatening creep when he doesn't get his way. He referenced what was already printed.
i dont know why but OH my god, every scare in this game managed to get actual jumps out of me. i think the atmosphere was really well done and they really just like, managed to capture that feeling of being a woman out a night. im only halfway through the video and the game has me so keyed up, which is both great (always love when a horror game actually does the job) and Horrible
Interesting thing i noticed, in the scene when Sara witnesses the "Patron" dude be murdered, I noticed that the killer had quite the "feminine" body shape. Which i was rather confused about - given how everyone kept saying Lewis was the culprit. But I kept thinking, is it two? Is there a female involved? And when they found Lewis's body i became to think, is it a woman taking charge?
The game was well done, love the build up, and the characters. Voice acting was great, and didn't expect the detective like game play but it was a good way to tell the story. Hope to see more from this team.
It’s always a fun experience watching Puppet Combo games, so thank you for playing this game. Also, I think you’d be great as a VA in their games lmao.
Man, this plot was so gruesome, and yet I was laughing so much during this video! I was not expecting so much hilarity after being introduced to a killer called the "Womb Ripper", but John's sass and references were just so good XD XD Both the 867-5309 and porn section bits were my favorite, hahaha
Love this puppet combo style in games, a bit of late 70 early 80 slashers movies and a bit of the warriors game and manhunt, all the city felt hostile and hopeless
*Looks at John Wolfe's channel. Reads the headline, "Most disturbing horror game of the year?"* *Buckles seatbelt* Let's do disssss! Later, I'll do a load of my own laundry! Oh the horror! 🤣
12:38 A check cashing place, and a bunch of signs saying “cash for gold” One of those laundromats you don’t always go to, but when you do go you’re never slipping🔫
Sorry, I live in the sticks so I've never been to a laundromat, I've never understood the Cash For Gold thing. Gold isn't exactly a currency? It's something you exchange FOR currency? What's the point of going backwards? XD
The voice actress of Sara said on twitter that john is one of her favorite youtubers i think she has a youtube channel herself “scarilyolivia” also voiced Amanda Moon in lust from beyond so awesome!
The scariest parts were the room full of bleeding washing machines... and the thought of actually having to ride a bus alone at night with a driver that just offered you free intercourse.
(i know its been 2 years) nonono he didnt offer free intercourse. He offered a free ride for intercourse! Which doesnt make it any better but arguably even worse
I started following John Wolfe when starting college a couple years back and needing something to get my mind off the classes and assignments while working full-time. Still one of my favorite streamers. It is refreshing to have someone who still makes quality content and hasn't changed like some others. Thanks John!
I think everything in this game was pretty good except for the ending. I really like the direction that the game was going in regards to the MC realizing she needs to protect her baby as well as herself, and it feels like that's kind of dropped. I was hoping they would tie her survival of this back to her shoddy relationship and realizing that leaving that would be best for her child, but instead the ending is taken up by the killer's story which really wasn't that interesting imo and kind of weak. I think I would of preferred it if the killer was a pure evil antagonistic force that just existed to threaten you and your baby. The autopsy scene was pretty predictable and didn't add anything either. Other than that though, I think the pacing, atmosphere and cast of characters is really top notch. Props to Jordan King, I want to see what else he can do.
Almost feel that last sequence with the killer was trying to imitate Silence of the lambs a little bit with Clarice confronting Buffalo Bill and the lights going dark
that's exactly what i was thinking of! that, added to the concept that the killer murders their victims because the latter has what the former never will - it's a great homage
Hah, when I was a teenager in the 80s, I was blessed to have my very own TV set, all to my self in my bedroom. It had a 4.5 inch black-and-white screen and built in rabbit-ear antenna. I loved that thing.
This game should be titled, “being a woman ANYWHERE late at night,” because that’s the real horror here lol and your answers mirrored what mine would have been which I LOVE.
This is the result of a low-trust society. In societies that are monoethnic and low-crime, women don't fear being out late at night. And neither do men.
@@Mayhzon Japan would count as monoethnic and low crime but they still have rapists, serial killers,etc. Have you ever heard of Junko Furuta(sp?)? Read what happened to that poor girl. Or read about the Japanese man that murdered and raped little girls and sent the videos of him torturing, raping, and murdering the little girls to their parents. No country is truly safe for women to walk around by themselves late at night.
The more I watch John Wolfe the more resilient to his snark I become. I still have to remind myself that every comment he makes isn't supposed to be taken seriously 😅
The giant "TIT" at 56:40 really caught me off-guard lol I really enjoyed the voice-acting and characters in this game!! Sara was such a fun protagonist. There was never a moment i felt annoyed or confused at her actions/monologuing, and the subtle character-building moments, like her comments on Peepaw's porn and "No offense, but I think you're the newest thing in this store", made me really like her!
I'm so excited to see John play this! I've seen others play it and enjoyed their videos, but John is one of my favorite content creators and I can't wait to see what he thinks!
The really tall old woman you meet must have been Samantha! the way she talks about "trying to find her" makes me think that she was trying to find her baby inside all the women she killed.
Might you be referring to Nightripper? It has some hobos as well and have similar ambiance with this game as well, not sure the guy's name is Joe as well tho 😂
I love the goofiness of many characters as it happens at nights and I love that hostility of everything around. Nights at the outskirts are scary, I felt this on my own skin. I absolutely adore games which use people as the main threat, these always have a way more realistic and terrifying vibe, it just frightens me
I am so glad you’re giving this game a shot! I had mixed feelings about it when I first saw a full play through, so I’m really glad to see what you’ll have to think about it.
Would have been perfect if after saying "Do you talk to yourself like this all the time?" he just looked straight into the camera silently for a few seconds
Interesting Note: You can actually read all those comic books. They actually designed a whole series of comics for this game. Incredible details overall, the different tv channels with advertisements, i just love the puppet combo games. thanks for the entertaining playthrough and your feedback.
You are 100% my favorite channel for horror, your reactions are so good, right up there with critikal. people who don't get scared are the best to experience the horror experience with
My fellow Dark Deception fans. I am certain John Wolfe is aware Dark Deception Chapter 4 is out. We do not need to frenzy his channel with requests to play it. I would advise we act civil towards John if we want him to play it because, if we don't, there would be a decent chance John will not play the chapter because of some more ravenous members of our fanbase who don't stop annoying people for DD content (You know who you are). So the best way to get him to play it, is to be patient and civilized.
They've even come to his Twitch streams to constantly "wHeN JOHN, wHeN?!" He's had to address this like a dozen times: that others were given codes and could play early - but he wasn't. 😫
John I feel like I totally got what you was talking the NES :') lmaoo they really do be going into these annoying tangents whenever anything is brought up about it.

Oh man Dom's reaction to the bus driver, he's like "you don't have to pay cash. Oh really? Do you take FIST UP THE ASS????" and I just died laughing.
The scariest parts were the room full of bleeding washing machines... and the thought of actually having to ride a bus alone at night with a driver that just offered you free intercourse.
(i know its been 2 years) nonono he didnt offer free intercourse. He offered a free ride for intercourse! Which doesnt make it any better but arguably even worse
The office employees names Dana and Henry are from the murderhouse! Nice little easter egg
The way he talks about the 90s makes my bones ache and bladder fail.
Ditto, the past was full of good times *got excited over the Gameboy part*
I'm from 1992. lmao
@@xxMiraclesMay wow same
@@grass7590 Haha, we'll be 30 this year... yay.
I started following John Wolfe when starting college a couple years back and needing something to get my mind off the classes and assignments while working full-time. Still one of my favorite streamers. It is refreshing to have someone who still makes quality content and hasn't changed like some others. Thanks John!
This has become my comfort video
I put this on during chores, games, just lounging around
"Amanda have some respect for the place that you live!" I felt directly attacked by that...... :O
32:32 after she hangs up he’s just stood there like “Hey this is a ripoff! She said it was 63 seconds!”
I think everything in this game was pretty good except for the ending. I really like the direction that the game was going in regards to the MC realizing she needs to protect her baby as well as herself, and it feels like that's kind of dropped. I was hoping they would tie her survival of this back to her shoddy relationship and realizing that leaving that would be best for her child, but instead the ending is taken up by the killer's story which really wasn't that interesting imo and kind of weak.
I think I would of preferred it if the killer was a pure evil antagonistic force that just existed to threaten you and your baby. The autopsy scene was pretty predictable and didn't add anything either. Other than that though, I think the pacing, atmosphere and cast of characters is really top notch. Props to Jordan King, I want to see what else he can do.
Played this the day it came out I never felt so much anxiety in my life. Glad to see you playing it
Almost feel that last sequence with the killer was trying to imitate Silence of the lambs a little bit with Clarice confronting Buffalo Bill and the lights going dark
that's exactly what i was thinking of! that, added to the concept that the killer murders their victims because the latter has what the former never will - it's a great homage
2 minutes and 20 seconds into the game and John has already given us good life advice.
Hah, when I was a teenager in the 80s, I was blessed to have my very own TV set, all to my self in my bedroom. It had a 4.5 inch black-and-white screen and built in rabbit-ear antenna. I loved that thing.
I like the old 80's trope of the killer somehow becoming some sort of paranormal, beastly entity because of prior personal trauma that they suffered.
This game should be titled, “being a woman ANYWHERE late at night,” because that’s the real horror here lol and your answers mirrored what mine would have been which I LOVE.
This is the result of a low-trust society.
In societies that are monoethnic and low-crime, women don't fear being out late at night. And neither do men.
@@Mayhzon Being monoethnic doesn't make countries any safer for women ...
@@Mayhzon You need to get out more then.
@@Mayhzon Japan would count as monoethnic and low crime but they still have rapists, serial killers,etc. Have you ever heard of Junko Furuta(sp?)? Read what happened to that poor girl. Or read about the Japanese man that murdered and raped little girls and sent the videos of him torturing, raping, and murdering the little girls to their parents. No country is truly safe for women to walk around by themselves late at night.
@@Mayhzon monoethnic
John: Anyone wears that plaid t-shirt you break up with them.
Cory in his playthrough: WHAT THE FREAK JOHN?!
The more I watch John Wolfe the more resilient to his snark I become. I still have to remind myself that every comment he makes isn't supposed to be taken seriously 😅
1:55 I am not kidding. I literally have the exact same button shirt and I am wearing it as you spoke about it.
I loved that you could read the comics, it's a gorgeous detail!
“Its ok someone graffitied a peace sign on the basement wall. We’re all good.”
This game's atmosphere and character building is really impressive, especially regarding Sara and all the NPCs at the strip mall you could talk to
The giant "TIT" at 56:40 really caught me off-guard lol
I really enjoyed the voice-acting and characters in this game!! Sara was such a fun protagonist. There was never a moment i felt annoyed or confused at her actions/monologuing, and the subtle character-building moments, like her comments on Peepaw's porn and "No offense, but I think you're the newest thing in this store", made me really like her!
I'm so excited to see John play this! I've seen others play it and enjoyed their videos, but John is one of my favorite content creators and I can't wait to see what he thinks!
The look john makes at the camera when the pizza dude didn’t know who Louis Kennedy was lmao
I’ve been waiting for that notification and now it’s here I can’t wait for this play through
Haven't watched it all the way through yet, but I bet it's just as good, if not better, as your other vids! Keep up the good work man!
This came at such a perfect time, I needed it. John your videos are more than entertainment, they are an escape.
I've watched so many playthroughs of this and this is my favourite. I knew your playthrough would have so much wit, humour, and well-made remarks!
DomPlays
A John upload is just what I needed! I saw this game making the rounds but I'm glad I'll be seeing it through your playthrough first :)
I am SO glad John played this finally. I watched Cory, Yub and 8Bitryan play and I was seething with excitement waiting for john to play it too
The really tall old woman you meet must have been Samantha! the way she talks about "trying to find her" makes me think that she was trying to find her baby inside all the women she killed.
I see the title and think, okay John has a new video. I see the Puppet Combo graphics and immediately - ecstasy!
Was there a demo for this and did John play it? The 'hobo Jo' scare at the beginning felt very familiar to me.
Yes, no. Everyone else played the demo including MrKravin but John never did
@@AlmaWadeCrymsm Huh. I can't recall who I watched play it. I just assumed it was John bc he's the one I watch most often, lol
Might you be referring to Nightripper? It has some hobos as well and have similar ambiance with this game as well, not sure the guy's name is Joe as well tho 😂
22:39 it is so satisfying hearing someone else echo this pet peeve I've had for years
Niiiice. Had a blast playing through this one myself! Quite a ride.
I got my snacks, let’s go
tbh that bus sequence is just what riding public transit is like
"Joel Fucking wrote it" lmao
John imitating the Nintendo youtube videos was so spot on lmao
I saw this a few times on the steam store, it looked amazing and the reviews were amazing as well. I am glad to watch you play this!
I love the goofiness of many characters as it happens at nights and I love that hostility of everything around. Nights at the outskirts are scary, I felt this on my own skin. I absolutely adore games which use people as the main threat, these always have a way more realistic and terrifying vibe, it just frightens me
I am so glad you’re giving this game a shot! I had mixed feelings about it when I first saw a full play through, so I’m really glad to see what you’ll have to think about it.
22:19 This imitation of review game channel was so perfect, is kinda scary how good it was.
Would have been perfect if after saying "Do you talk to yourself like this all the time?" he just looked straight into the camera silently for a few seconds
Singing Happy Birthday when the phone rang had me rolling. The Vincent tone was perfect.
Ahh puppet combo games are so good. They're so creative. I wish they keep creating more of these kinds of games.
Interesting Note: You can actually read all those comic books. They actually designed a whole series of comics for this game. Incredible details overall, the different tv channels with advertisements, i just love the puppet combo games. thanks for the entertaining playthrough and your feedback.
I love John! His content is hilarious 😂
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one singing the number. What a great reference and song! Thanks John for your rendition too
...she could’ve rescheduled or skipped the job interview instead of risking her life for some laundry.
You are 100% my favorite channel for horror, your reactions are so good, right up there with critikal. people who don't get scared are the best to experience the horror experience with
My fellow Dark Deception fans. I am certain John Wolfe is aware Dark Deception Chapter 4 is out. We do not need to frenzy his channel with requests to play it.
I would advise we act civil towards John if we want him to play it because, if we don't, there would be a decent chance John will not play the chapter because of some more ravenous members of our fanbase who don't stop annoying people for DD content (You know who you are).
So the best way to get him to play it, is to be patient and civilized.
They've even come to his Twitch streams to constantly "wHeN JOHN, wHeN?!"
He's had to address this like a dozen times: that others were given codes and could play early - but he wasn't. 😫
@@AngeliqueStP You can see why I needed to make this message
@@pompousproductions Ah-yup. [sighs]
28:52
omg THANK YOU!
As of now none of the Let's Players I've watched play this have caught that except you.
John I feel like I totally got what you was talking the NES :') lmaoo they really do be going into these annoying tangents whenever anything is brought up about it.
