Martha is Dead Reviews
For all of its darkness, Martha is Dead can't seem to find the light.
Fans of adventure games with a driving psychological story will adore Martha is Dead. Even with the bugs and technical issues, it offers enough intrigue and stimulation to keep the player engaged in the narrative. It might have fewer issues on other platforms but during this Martha is Dead review, the Xbox Series S version was troubling.
Martha is Dead is a walking simulator with touches of psychological terror that manages to turn its most controversial section into an element capable of enhancing what it intends to show, although there are times when it is exceeded without need. Although it has a somewhat rough playable section and a poor technical section, Giulia's story is worth living.

Shocking, controversial, technically broken, brutally forward with its presentation, and forwardly present in its mechanics, Martha is Dead wants nothing but a shocked gasp and an article made about its material. Mission accomplished, but at the cost of integrity.
Martha Is Dead is a good adventure thanks to its deep look into the mind of a character under stress. Aside from performance issues and missed opportunities, the game has great attention to detail and careful pacing.
Martha Is Dead presents an exciting story and tells it creatively in an atmosphere full of tension and doubt, the game suffers from a number of technical problems and lack of diversification but offers the story that fans of this type of game are looking for.

Martha is Dead is far from what I thought It'd be, and even though it begins strong, things start to fall short and end in total disappointment.

Martha Is Dead is a very good psychological horror game that scares you with its own dark and heartbreaking story.

Martha is Dead perfectly captures the concept of living away from the nightmares of war. Tragically interrupted, the family peace abounds in gruesome stagings, the pursuit of truth while living under the cloak of identity lies. Made and reliably designed, intimate world encourages you to get to know the family past. Everything is tied up in the framework of the modern horror genre. At the present time, you will not find anything better, but the developer surprises us very positively. You will not be frightened, but you will be absorbed in the fog.

Deep psychological drama diluted by hours of shallow walking.

Martha is Dead is a horror game that had everything to hold the player's attention. Although the story is really strong, there is a very slow pace, which ends up causing exhaustion before even halfway through the game.

Martha Is Dead lives or dies by its core narrative and ability to immerse the player in it. I like the way it mixes the personal with the historical. I appreciate the care with which the developers have constructed the game world and I even like most of the photography-focused challenges.
Martha is Dead was a tough title to review. The game does a lot of things really well and feels extremely authentic, and it also makes good use of the next-gen hardware to conjure up beautiful visuals on the screen. But at the same time, there are plenty of bugs that pull you out of the immersion and make you realize, once again, that you are playing a game.
Martha is Dead has an interesting idea, but not enough to be considered a great game in spite of its flaws. If you're a fan of thrillers or the setting of Martha is Dead appeals to you, it is worth a check. It's not a life-changing horror game, but it's immersive enough to keep you hooked for a while.

We take a look at LKA's second outing, the psychological horror adventure, Martha Is Dead
Martha is Dead very impressively combines visual beauty, psychological horror and the tragedy of war in walking simulator genre.

Unfortunately, I can’t really recommend Martha Is Dead. It has a slew of problems and wasted potential when it comes to its narrative presentation. And gameplay-wise the game does feel lacking and has nowhere near the impact it clearly wants to have. At the end of the day, it winds up being a more confusing mess than a coherent emotional story.
The lady of the lake
Grim, unsettling, and ruthless, Martha Is Dead's nature highlights its greatness and beauty. LKA's second work captivates players with its gripping and ruthless narrative. Despite some imperfections, the desire to untangle the plot is strong. Excited for their next work.

In contrast to the sunny Tuscan countryside, Martha Is Dead is a melancholic drama with few bright aspects, but it adheres to the norms of interactive storytelling games more that we would like. Although it makes some small steps forward compared to the developers' previous game, they are not enough to make it stand toe to toe with the top representatives of the genre.
