Uncanny Valley Reviews
Uncanny Valley is an interesting game that fans of games such as Lone Survivor and Claire: Extended Cut will certainly like. There’s a lot of content to experience in this PS Vita and PS4 psychological survival horror game, and every run will put you on the path towards a different ending as long as you remember what you’ve done before and what you’re going to do next.
Uncanny Valley’s take on Survival Horror is grounded in the psychological narrative of Tom’s night terrors and delivers it generously throughout. Uncanny Valley's gameplay will have you solving the mystery surrounding your work environment, yet the horror never really sinks in - even when you find out what's going on.
Uncanny Valley is going to catch some players' eyes, and leave a lot of others wondering if they missed something. The painful truth is that they didn't. The game is often too counterproductive to be enjoyed, as it manages to tackle every good idea with a bad one. At first, it feels like Silent Hill, then the dread sets in that it might just be the parts people were indifferent to, or didn't like. Any survival horror fan should check it out, but don't expect anything more than a game with a lot of potential that never quite realises it.
Uncanny Valley doesn't always get it right, but still manages to be an effective horror adventure well-worth your time.
