Tank controls. Fixed cameras. Pure Terror. Set in a haunting world of twisted experiments and occult nightmares, this game brings back the survival horror mechanics you know and love while pushing the genre into terrifying new depths.

What works

Things to keep in mind

  • Some aiming and control quirks noted
  • Limited map functionality and inventory management tedium
  • Voice acting is cheesy by design, which may not appeal to all
