In some regards Slitterhead is fantastic. It offers an engaging story told through the perspective of several characters, a simple yet fun combat system that excels through the ability to possess different people at any moment and super cool monster design in the Slitterheads. Unfortunately a lot of the other aspects feel very underbaked. Stealth isn’t engaging at all and sometimes kills all the momentum the game had going, the controls are always snappy enough for what you want to do and some aspects of the presentation feel very oldschool. As a package the game is a lot of fun though and offers a glimpse into what the developers at Bokeh Game Studio are able to do in the future. That is certainly bright and hopefully brings more somewhat unique titles like Slitterhead certainly is.

Slitterhead has 'cult classic' written all over it with its gritty atmosphere, unsettling creature designs and old-school appeal, though it lacks polish and a satisfying combat system.

Slitterhead offers a quirky, exotic horror-action experience with flaws in dialogue and gameplay, but those who embrace its oddities will find a bizarre, twist-filled story, intense monster combat, and a true cult-classic feel from Bokeh Game Studio.

Slitterhead is a divisive horror game that will either fascinate or frustrate players. Its unique blend of action, body horror, and surreal storytelling, coupled with a haunting soundtrack by Akira Yamaoka, creates an unforgettable, albeit flawed, experience.
