Escape a creepy nun
Scranny is a horror video game from TreStraal. In this horror adventure, Scranny has locked you inside her house and you need to escape within five days. The house contains various items that players need to find and use to escape and discover the three different endings.
Scranny is a ghastly nun similar to the demon featured in the film The Nun. The game features another villain named Brob, a skinless monstrosity that will hunt you down alongside Scranny. Not only are these designs unoriginal, but the entire game is also just a blatant rip-off of the free game Granny.
Gameplay and visuals
In Scranny, players are given five in-game days to find a way out of the house they were locked in. They need to explore the house to locate keys and items that will eventually lead to their escape. The challenge is to do so while evading the two entities that want them dead, Scranny and Brob. Getting caught five times by either of the two means starting over again.
If you think this game’s mechanics are exactly the same as Granny’s, that’s because it is. The game’s title alone is an obvious attempt to ride on Granny’s popularity. It tries separate itself from the original by adding an additional enemy and introducing one new mechanic. Scranny has sensitive hearing but bad vision, while Brob has sharp sight but poor hearing. Unfortunately, these are executed so poorly.
This game has better textures than Granny, but that’s not saying much given how that game looks. It doesn’t have a distinct atmosphere and the lack of polish is seen everywhere. Scranny’s model is an obvious rip-off and there’s nothing unique about Brob. Most of all, the developers have the audacity of charging money for a game that steals most of its ideas from a free-to-play title.
Shameless and unoriginal
Scranny steals the entire gameplay design of Granny, a free-to-play game, and shamelessly puts a price tag on it. Its half-baked attempt at introducing something new falls flat on its face. It would’ve been just another horror game clone that will go under the radar, but it manages to stand out due to its ridiculous price tag. If you want an escape-room-style horror game, just play Granny.
