Critic Reviews for Iron Lung
A hallmark of excellence. There may be flaws, but they are negligible and won't cause massive damage.
Iron Lung is a masterclass of how to effectively build tension and dread. It runs at just the right length to explore its minimal gameplay ideas, while remaining mysterious and opaque enough to feel larger than the immediate experience. It's well worth the time for those who enjoy experimental game concepts or suffocating atmospheres, and what lurks in the blood ocean may stick with you well past your playtime.
While there’s a creeping sense of horror waiting for you, this game gets in its own way far too much to recommend in any way
