Rely On Horror
HomepageRely On Horror's Reviews
Rarely are games as beautiful and lovingly crafted as Vampyr. Jonathan's quest to find his place in a world gone mad is haunting and worthwhile, in spite of a combat system from the bowels of hell.
Some say money is the root of all evil. Madmind Studio appears to be one such video game developer that reached too high when creating Agony. This extremely graphic and sexual game set out to shock players the day its initial Kickstarter campaign launched. The most shocking thing is how dull Agony is.
Asemblance: Oversight picks up where NiLo left off, providing players with an enjoyable brain tease. How can you be trusted with the answers, if you aren't even sure of the question?
A surreal mixed media adventure.
Despite these shortcomings, I could easily put another 100 hours into the game without issue, especially once I can team up with close friends. If you liked the original State of Decay, you'll enjoy the second one too, but temper your excitement somewhat if you expected a radical upgrade.
Experience true fear: high school dating!
More of the same, but not necessarily a bad thing.
Metal Gear Survive rings hollow, a vapid facsimile of a once-great franchise undone by Konami's fixation with the almighty dollar.
Nostalgia vs. Quality
What ever it takes.
An insincere imitation.
An acceptable Price
I kept coming back to The Land of Pain instead of writing it off. It is not only an impressive effort from one developer, but it's also inviting to genre fans while being approachable by today's standards. For just $12, it's a solid pick if you're introducing a friend to the genre as well.
Strong pacing, rewarding progression, and innovative level design set a solid foundation for the franchise's future, and underneath a few layers of cheese and grit is a story worth experiencing for its creativity and strong emotional core. If The Evil Within was a modern take on classic survival horror, then The Evil Within 2 is the next step for the genre.
Darkwood is an immersive, atmospheric, and haunting experience I can thoroughly recommend.
Our review for the first three chapters of Bendy and the Ink Machine, a first-person puzzle game that wants to ruin your childhood.
A familiar tune of discordant harmony.
An education in frustration.
Night Trap 25th Anniversary is a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
Resident Evil Revelations was and continues to be a great game, but also a hesitant one that lacked confidence to fully return the series to its survival horror roots.
