So, as far as horror games go this is a pretty good one. Thanks Pyrocynical.

It's hard to describe this game given I'm not that into the horror genre. I'm a huge wuss and it took me longer than it should've to complete this game. But what I can tell you is that this game has such an amazing atmosphere to it. The sounds, the lighting, map design, it all comes together to really mess with your mind in the worst ways possible. The fear of the unkown is a powerful thing and this game really taps into that fear and then some.

On a technical stand point this game is a bit iffy. For the most part the game worked as intended and perfectly fine. But I did have the occasional problem with clipping through walls, getting stuck, or enemies not working as intended. It's a bit frustrating but the game does a good job at sprinkling save points around the map so you won't ever lose too much progress.

Combat is fine, nothing too special. The game finds a pretty good balance at making you feel not completely helpless but still in serious danger. Though the shotgun just sucks. I know it's a riot shotgun and spits salt but come on giving us a shotgun that doesn't blow everything away is just sacrilege. The health bar could have been more obvious though, I didn't even know one existed until like half way through the 2nd level.

I'd definetly reccomend this game to any horror fans. It's a fantastic experience and you're sure to get your money's worth with it. For those like me who never really play horror games, give it a shot. Play the game in small doses and pace yourself. No need to finish it all in one go.
