A really fun survival horror game that feels a lot like the early Resident Evil games on PSOne. Of course, a lot of the game's appeal is the nostalgia factor, but I think it's a genuinely good game on its own merits. To be honest, after a while, I sort of forgot I was playing a 2024 game that looks like it's from the '90s.

It has a great story and some wonderful characters. I saw a review complaining that there's only an explanation at the end, but whilst it's true there is a big reveal in the finale, there are many clues littered throughout the game and it was fun to try to piece together the narrative.

Another complaint is that the game is too easy. As someone without good reflexes, I often find that games are too difficult, so I'm glad to finally be able to play an action game I could actually beat! If it's too easy for you, there is also a Hard Mode, so everyone should be catered for. It's true that you can often avoid enemies rather than kill them, but that's part of what you should expect from a 'proper' survival horror game. There is limited ammo, so it's wise to use it sparingly.

Many thanks to SFB Games for creating Crow Country – stellar job!
