Immersive and atmospheric environment
Strong narrative and character writing
Linear gameplay with little exploration
Still Wakes the Deep is a first-person survival horror game set on a North Sea oil rig in the 1970s. Critics praised its tense atmosphere, captivating storytelling, and immersive sound design but noted that its linear gameplay and relatively short runtime may not appeal to everyone. The game excels in creating a gripping, claustrophobic environment, but some critics felt the scares and creature encounters fell flat compared to the intense buildup.
