Welcome to a new Liminal Spaces game called POOLS.
One could say POOLS is like an art gallery where you look around and listen to the sounds. There are very few things to solve, practically a few mazes. Sometimes the game can challenge your navigation skills. But mostly you're just... there.

POOLS plays on fears of getting lost, the dark, and tight spaces.

    Quality of the face cam is great without the light! Please don’t switch to no face cam, it’s crazy the drastic difference it makes!
  • @PR370N
    I actually like the light off tbh
  • @Vikingcat01
    The fact that there's no blood or body parts everywhere as you progress further surrounded by pristine white shiny tiles makes it even more creepy kinda like a insane asylum look.
  • @sarrahkramer848
    Even the slightest sound in such a silent space (the first splash stepping into the water) feels like a neon sign pointing you out. Makes one feel watched

    The fingers on the underwater ladder were a perfect scare. Not a jumpscare, per the promise, but definitely enough to make you go “oh hell no.”
  • @Jessletsgetit
    I like the look without the light actually. No need to strain your eyes for us! Face cam is a must! We love to see your face Hollow!

    I don't know how I got here lol. I'm not a gamer - I'm a 47 yr old Mom but I was fully invested in this walk in the "Pools" 🤣 that was neat!

    Man this is one of the non horror games that's creeped me out the most... the place is like a dream, but then in many moments it turns into a nightmare. This is the best game about liminal spaces for me, by far. Very eerie vibe, and very well done.
  • @PsychoticTok
    i love the slightest detail the developers put in the game of when you come out of the water your footsteps are wet and squeaky and slowly go back to normal steps.
  • @placidpaddler
    These games should have an option to speak in realtime into the mic and generate an appropriately echoed sound based on your given location. Imagine being able to shout anything from “hello? is anybody there?” to ripping a loud beer chug burp or wet pool fart that reverberates through the halls and chambers.

    Just seen that ladder being pulled into that square hole in the wall…. Had me like THEY LIED TO US. We not alone !

    This reminded me of how depression felt, to me at least. Eventually becomes familiar and you become cozy with the emptiness it brings upon everyday, but when you’re out it’s so much better and you realize there are glimpse of light in the rooms because there is an outside. Gives time to introspect but also time to get lost and find your way only to come to understand your brokenness… sometimes nothing can be done than just accept we live “here”and there seems to be no exit, loosing yourself along the way trying to find the way out. So sometimes one just ends up being, it is what it is, it will be what is. If I die in here then I die, if I survive then I will know what light is behind such windows I pass by everyday. One can become accustomed to living in such “liminal spaces”. Glad to be out nonetheless. Becoming familiar with the outside and its natural light and darkness without seeing my surroundings all still and dormant like these “liminal spaces”.

    Honestly as soon as the video started without the light I was like “he has cozy lighting behind him! Love it!” Definitely prioritize your health bro. The quality is still there
  • @millzymagik
    Light off gives a more natural but still crystal clear look
  • @Breadman2478
    Don't know if you know this or not, but fun fact or creepy fact, the rubber ducks turn into the direction of which you are If you turn around or like walk into a different direction, the ducks will turn towards you and look at you constantly

    5:32 *weird scratching sound from an air vent* 9:42 *ghostly watersplash sound behind him* 10:26 Hollow: "If they would've just added a couple of soundeffects, .." Well.. 😄

    One of your buddies from Miami (he is here in CA now, Alan)) told me about your channel. Said you wanted to be a firefighter but made it as a gamer/streamer instead...4.7mil subs, amazing dude. Always glad to hear a success story.
  • @camielleh7270
    The low light is fine with me. Also, blue light glasses are a godsend, and with you being in front of screens so much, you’ll probably get a lot of relief!
  • @Bryan19777
    Its like the backrooms. Your stuck in a endlessly looping area that never ends and once your in it your lost forever. There's no monsters chasing you because the endless void of nothing everywhere is enough to drive some people crazy. I think id loose it if I was alone on a large sinking ship with thousands of rooms and all you hear is creaking sounds and things exploding as the ship sinks.
  • @Leopardeye
    It’s the footstep echoes, for me. Nothing is worse than standing still, and still hearing footsteps. 😂
