Alone in your room, you see a diary sitting on your desk. It wants to tell you a story: a story about a high school crush. A story about small town romance. A story about how everyone is against you and nobody will ever love you again.
Written with love... and something much worse. This room holds your biggest fears... and a diary. Its every page describes heartfelt feelings for a boy, and what happened 3 years ago in a small town of Rosen Peek. Maybe none of those things matter to you. Nonetheless, you must read through the mystery diary to keep on moving with your life. However, unknown horror grows within the walls as the past catches up with you and a sweet love story turns into a tale of madness. So sit down, and start reading.
Very Positive

I love you too
plyaed with my friends and thought it was cool but my pc was really old so i lagged a lot and had a massive aura loss in one level cause i kept losing even though im usually really cool that i had to stop showing them cause i had to keep the bits of cool guy aura i still have (and have recovered) but i beat the level and played through the rest and a jumpscare got me that made me scared of windows for a long time but i finally got over it when i was and now im the coolest guy
Mi trovo a ripensare a questo gioco un po' troppo spesso
Little interesting game. Gameplay is simple, you sit behind your desk and read your diary entries. Then when you want to turn to another page, something happens and sends chills down your spine.
Game has few jump scares, some of them are generic but most of them are new and fun (at least for me new)
Atmosphere is pleasantly unpleasant and doesn't hide the fact that you are playing a horror game.
90% of the time you will be just reading a long pages of story that this game tries to portray to you. After a while it does get a bit annoying and you start to feel like it's taking too long but as soon as that feeling hits, you find yourself at the end of the game. Well timed. Tho this game is more of a interactive book than a game.
Story is something a lot of us can relate to. Unanswered love. Unseen by your crush. Enough to entertain you for hour and half and not kill you by boredom.
Overall I think it is worth your money and time. It's cheap, short and fun.
Solid 8/10
예전에 유튜브 영상으로 스토리를 다 보고 한 건데도 반전이 기억이 안 나서 그런지 ㅋㅋㅋ 쫄깃하고 재밌고 감동이네요
스토리도 여운이 남고 공포 요소도 적당해서 재밌습니다.
처음에 갑툭튀가 좀있음 근대 하다보면 카메라 나와서 삐요옹~ 밖에 기억에 안난다
삐요옹~ 나는후부터는 사실상 공포게임 아니었다
살면서 처음해본 공포겜인데 할만한듯
나 잘하네?
♥♥♥♥♥♥ up and amazing
분위기가 공포스러운 그런 게임이었다. 생각보다 반전있는 스토리가 좋았다.
refunded, the game is criptic for the sake of being it...just nonsense.
What a fantastic game. The story honestly kept me guessing the whole time. I stream so I'll admit I often miss details because chat is busty spamming me with stuff. I did get caught on a couple puzzles in a "WTF do I gotta do?" moment but for me that's normal.
LOVE, SAM is a short but very memorable psychological horror game. The story telling happens mostly through the entries of the journal so get ready to read A LOT. The game builds tension through atmosphere and narrative rather than relying on constant jump scares, which makes everything feel more unsettling. The story itself goes deeper than I expected, dealing with jealousy and obsession. The final twist was worth the horrors my mind put me through after being locked in this room.
If you enjoy psychological, creepy horror with a strong atmosphere, this is an easy recommendation. 10/10
great game
Outstanding. This is why I play indie horror games because you occasionally stumble across gems like this. Very unique with the genius premise of going through the diary to progress. Excellent story too which kept me gripped which is very rare. This is a straight 10/10.
스토리 재밌음
One great short adventure! Pretty valuable message from the story! Amazing game kudos to KLL!
심장에 존나 안좋아요 ㅅ발
just a cinematic horror masterpiece to finish in one sitting
좋은 게임이다
wow one of the best psychological horror games i have ever touched GO IN BLIND I PROMISE
enjoyed the parts i could actually play!! there was an OBSCENE about of bugs like i had to restart the game twice before i got up to the section where you have to find the lies, and then rage quit after about 6 attempts ): gives you nowhere near enough time to complete the task whilst the chance of a sticky note actually appearing are like 1/3. i really want to finish this game but it just doesn't feel possible and i lack the patience to try
작은 집 안에서 여러 가지 일들이 일어나는 게 신기했고
어떤 스토리인지 유추하면서 플레이하는 것도 재미있었어요
어렵지 않아서 편안하게 할 수 있었던 게임입니다
good game needs hookers.
재밌어요
I have played this game with a friend! It's amazing, from the writing, to the atmosphere, to the puzzles and then the reveal of what we have been reading. It's a tragic story of jealousy and what obsession does to a person in it's pure unfiltered form, and it proves how effective MCs plan was as well from the beginning until the reveal. I fully recommend this game for everyone to experience ! I honestly would love Ks diary haha
게임 개 잘만들었어요... 근데 겁쟁이가 하기엔 굉장히 무섭네여..ㅋㅋㅋ
This is the first review I've done in many years. This game is well worth the play! Short but sweet! It's well worth it 10/10.
If you want a game that you can fully immerse yourself in I'd say this is the one! Helps knock out a few hours, but keeps you hooked!
걍 그럼
중고등학생애들이 좋아할만한 공포게임정도?
이게 국산 게임이라는게 자랑스럽습니다!
짧고 굵었지만 몰입도가 좋았다고 생각해유
최고의 공포게임 인디라는게 믿겨지지 않을 정도의 탄탄한 스토리가 일품. 텍스트를 기반으로 한 작품이라는 개성도 매력적임. 최세윤 개발자님 계속 만들어주세요! 사랑합니다.
게임에 70 ~ 80퍼 정도가 텍스트 읽기 뿐인데도 제법 흥미롭게 게임을 했습니다.
중간중간 점프 스케어 요소도 즐거웠습니다.
그런데 엔딩을 중후반부터 뭔가 재미있는데 이해가 잘 안되지만 그래도 재미있어요.
중간에 버그난 줄 알아서 껐다 켰는데 버그 아니더라구요. 근데 너무너무 재밌었어요!!! 짱b
The story underpinning Love, Sam is a little too wrapped up in high school drama for my tastes. That said, the scares are top notch. A couple of the later scenes in this made me really squirm. Good short experience.
k
Um excelente terror psicológico que a todo momento te deixa angustiado que tem alguém te observando o tempo todo, e que história boa viu? Me peguei mais envolvido do que imaginava, o final realmente me deixou de queixo caído. Recomendo demais.
솔직히 무섭진않았고
스토리는 흥미로웠다。
개빡쳐서 무서운게 없어짐
Love, Sam is a beautiful game with a wonderful plot twist that me, and my 2 friends somehow didn't predict earlier than it was revealed. The story pulls you in one direction just to choke-slam you into the next, and somehow makes the abrupt script flip entertaining and jaw-dropping. Overall, for $5, you're practically slapping the developers around, spitting on them, and dropping them pity change, as for how good the game is, the price is so low. Loved it, just wish I could play it again for the first time, 10/10, me and my friends loved it.
미친 게[이
I had no hopes going in this game. It didn't promise much other than the tags associated with it. I definetly didn't expect such a disturbing and story driven horror game. It has a few easy puzzles that you need to get through but most of the time it took me to finish the game was reading the diary logs. It's great how flipping pages is interactive with the enviroment. Certainly recommend this short horror experience with a plot twist. My only problem with it is the moving lagging and the hitbox of items being misplaced. Other than that, fascinating game!
beautiful story telling and ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up too
I highly enjoyed this one, the story was awesome, the atmosphere and tension were awesome, I played through for multiple endings. I don't want to spoil anything so if you haven't tried this one out yet I definitely recommend picking it up and don't watch any reviews on it.
왜 공포게임이 인디게임의 정수인지 보여주는 게임 한정된 리소스를 가지고 어떻게 사람에게 공포라는 감정을 심어줄지 고민이 묻어난다.
Love, Sam is an underrated gem in the psychological horror genre — a deeply personal, emotional, and unsettling experience that combines diary-style storytelling with chilling atmosphere and smart horror design.
What makes Love, Sam unique is its narrative structure. The entire game takes place in a single room, but the story unfolds through reading the pages of a mysterious diary. As you turn each page, the environment shifts around you, reacting dynamically to the memories being revealed. This blend of narrative and gameplay keeps you fully immersed and constantly on edge.
The horror in Love, Sam is subtle but effective. It doesn’t rely heavily on cheap jump scares; instead, it uses psychological tension, disturbing imagery, and a growing sense of emotional discomfort. The story gradually reveals dark secrets about guilt, obsession, and trauma — all told in a very human and relatable way.
Visually, the game uses its limited setting to great effect. The room transforms in eerie and unpredictable ways, often reflecting the mental state of the protagonist. Combined with excellent sound design — including whispers, ambient creaks, and disturbing audio glitches — the game maintains a constant level of unease.
In conclusion, Love, Sam is a powerful and disturbing experience that proves horror doesn’t need massive environments or monsters to be effective. It tells a compelling story that stays with you long after the ending, making it a must-play for fans of narrative-driven and psychological horror games.
뒤틀린 집착은 강한 공포심을 불러옵니다.
Um dos melhores jogos de terror que já joguei, brinca muito com teu psicológico. Todo o ambiente é feito pra te deixar desconfortável, e a cada minuto que passa o diário começa a se tornar mais questionável, te fazendo pensar quem realmente escreveu ele e o que realmente tá acontecendo ali. Ansioso pra comprar e jogar Letters of Bernard Thorne, novo jogo da developer
한정된 공간과 그래픽으로 이정도의 스토리와 몰입감이라니
재밌다
Recomendo pa krl
숨겨진 이야기를 잘 풀어낸 짧은 공포 게임.
* 점프 스케어 있음.
* 엔딩은 세 가지가 있고, 처음부터 다시 시작하지 않고 모두 볼 수 있다. (별로 차이 없음)
공포게임 중 스토리와 연출, 진행방식, 조작 등 모든 요소들이 빼어난 명작
我去这个剧情太流弊了。。。
игра хорошая, жаль что нет русского языка, но в целом английский там не сложный. были несколько страшных скримеров. кароче рекомендую

Spoilers:
So, the big twist is that the actual jealous murderer was the gay jock. got it.
와 재밌다
不好玩 奇葩
I'm not very good with horror games, but I finally built up the courage to play Love, Sam.
And wow. Just wow. Without spoiling anything, I can say that every single thing this game tried to do - it did it perfectly. Absolutely. Nailed. It.
10/10, worth every penny. Genuinely surprised this game isn't more well-known.
좋아하는 스트리머에게 추천 받지 않았더라면
절대 해보지 않았을 인디 곰보겜
적절한 심리적 공포와 반전이 좋았고
이야기를 풀어가는 방식도 나름 흥미진진하다
일기에 적힌 시의 퀄리티가 은근 좋았던게 인상깊었다ㅋㅋ
玩起来就像看悬疑小说一样非常优秀的作品剧情真的很赞可以拍电影的程度。开头还引用了世界上最短科幻小说看得出作者文学功底不错。非常推荐，游戏难度也不高但是恐黑症渗入。很牛逼真的！！！
가장 처절하고 안타까운 공포 게임
good gamw would light myself on fire
面白かった
After playing Letters of Bernard Thorne, I was curious to check out the previous game.
Unfortunately, I found it lacking in both gameplay and engagement. While I can see why some people might enjoy it, it personally didn’t meet my expectations, so I’ve decided to leave a negative review.

처음으로 이 게임을 플레이했다. 샘이라는 친구, 정말 마음에 든다. 도시에서 온 소녀라고? 못 참지 ㅋㅋ
샘 나랑 만나... 쿼터백은 필요없어 난 니 인생의 쿼터백이 될게
샘을 위해 시를 써봤어... 네가 좋아하는 abcb 형식이야...
강렬했지 우리 만남
절대로 잊지 못할 그 순간
그때 먹었던 도넛은 맛남
이렇게 쓰는 거 맞남? ㅎ
샘.... 그곳에서 널 기다릴게
안녕
굉장히 재밌게 했어요. 재밌어요 그리고 재밌어요
완성도가 되게 높은듯
역시 국산게임!! 캬
그런데 엔딩이 진짜 살짝 조금 아쉬운듯?
最終あたりまで日記をつけているのが誰なのかプレイヤーの想像に任せられていて「思い込ませる」演出がすごくうまいと感じました
そしてめっちゃ怖い…何回も叫びましたｗ
グラフィックもいいし、ゲーム性も独特で面白い
注意しておくことはフラッシュによる点滅くらいでしょうか
ホラー演出としてはいいんですが点滅が苦手な方も多いと思うので、点滅をたくさん使わなければならないのが少しマイナス
ホラーゲームとしては完成度高いです
중간에 진짜 냥빡칠 정도로 너무 어려웠던 구간이 있어서ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
정말 중간에 걍 빡종런할 뻔 했는데ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 그래두,,, 계속 도전해서 겨우 엔딩 봐써요... 엉엉
나름 새로운 유형의 공겜이라고 전 생각해서 하면서도 몰입해서 재밌게 했습니다!
스토리가 중요했던것 같은데, 막상 스토리가 잘 기억이 안나네용 허허
great story. loved the plot twist and am a little disturbed tbh
my bed that i pissed on
안녕하세요.
게임 미쳤네요. 거의 반전의 반절을 거듭하는 개쩌는 스릴러 영화 한편 본 것 같아요.
그 정해연작가님의 홍학의자리 소설 느낌도 좀 나네요.
재밌었고요
담에 또 이런 갓겜 출시해주세요
감사합니다.
책 읽기를 좋아하는 분께 추천드립니다.
너무무서워요
난 공포게임 싫어하는데
그래서 친구들이 내게 선물해줬다
억지로 했다
시발 너무 무서워 엉엉엉엉
이걸 왜 선물해 준거니....
Way too much reading for my liking. Though I will say the story is proper.
Fantastic storytelling, well worth the playthrough and honestly even a second playthrough!
In a world filled with annoyingly typical horror games, this one definitely stood out.
I haven't really replayed Love, Sam since the more recent updates, but I've watched plenty of older playthroughs alongside playing through the game when it originally came out. It's genuinely one of the most effective horror games I've seen in recent years and one of my favourites just because of the discomfort it made me experience. Love, Sam is an excellent game and it's very effective in its scares, it's enough to keep you uncomfortable throughout experience whilst still managing to hold that cloak of mystery over you. love this game.
반전이 재밌다
기믹이 재밌다
영상이 재밌다
게임이 재밌다
종합: 나쁘지 않았다
Very much recommend! If you have a keen eye, or you’re observant, you will definitely be able to spot the inconsistencies and the plot twist that will happen! But if you aren’t— like me, then you’d be surprised.
Also it’s fun to play it when you have someone with you (imo).
man whats wrong with kevin or whatever his name is
반전이 쩔고 스토리가 재밌었지만 역시 개쫄보인 나... 무서웠다
뭔가 뭔가 다른 스팀 리뷰들이 전부 이해가 되면서 아! 머리가 팍하고 트였습니다
맵소사 브라이언 당신의 매력은 어디까지지?

I enjoyed this game a lot. I'm glad I gave it a try.
미친 반전이 있는 게임

게이게이야...
very good game very good story. beautifully tragic.
its such a good game and it is so well written, the ending keeps you thinking and not only does it keep you on edge but interested as well. i played this after a review with my boyfriend who hates horror genre and we both really enjoyed it . watching him peice together theories with me was amazing and i really just have to thank the creators for the clear level of effort put into every detail of the game. only issue would be the legacy version being in acsessable but that wouldn't effect the original play through.
About an hour and a half in total, but it really is a phenomenal piece of art for what it is. I won't spoil anything about the story, but I've paid $10 for a movie this long and I'm happy I could spend $5 supporting this creator.
ホラー要素は個人的には少な目。
サムとその周辺の人物たちの真実を日記（たまにイベント）で追っていくという内容なのだが、
たまに挟まれるノーヒントでの時間制限の謎解きや、逃げるイベントが少し苦痛だった。
ただ、それらを乗り越えたエンディング後の読後感はなかなかに後味の悪さが良く、
軽い鬱ゲー好きなら満足できると思われる。
日本語字幕はしっかりしているので、セールの時にでも気になったら是非。
아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!! 아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!! 아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!! 아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!! 아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!! 아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!! 아오 ㅋㅋ ㅋㅇㅇ!!
재밌습니다. 게임 속 비오는 소리도 너무 좋아요.
스토리가 탄탄하고 적당히? 무서워요
(갑툭튀 안나온다메 김현동 개새기야)
스토리는 무난하게 흥미롭습니다.
다만 진행 중에 불합리한 부분들 때문에 추천드리긴 좀 그렇네요.
먼저 그 놈의 망할 포스트잇 찾는 구간. 힌트라고는 쥐뿔도 없이 시간제한만 걸어두면 어쩌잔 걸까요.
그 다음에 웃는 귀신이 쫓아오는 구간. 도대체 지금도 뭐 그걸 어떻게 깼는지 모르겠네요.
몰입감 높은 스토리와 중간중간 나오는 공포 요소, 간단한 미션들이
지루 할 틈을 주지 않고 엔딩까지 달리게 해 주네요. 갓겜입니다요!!
RISE UP, SAM!
This is honestly an absolutely solid game for a solo-dev project. The scares are approachable, but effective, and the writing is excellent. A great way to spent a dark and stormy evening.
굿...
