Probably Shinji Mikami had too high expectations for the new franchise. And in principle, the game designer confirmed his famous status. The gameplay is in the spirit of Residents with slightly modified mechanics. I would especially highlight the change of scenery, locations and the time-tested survival element of hide and seek and saving ammo. There weren't enough mysteries and fear. The game is more adventure, but the scares are rather weak, which is critical for a horror game. During the entire game I literally felt a pleasant discomfort a couple of times. The unpleasant moments are the length of the story and 2 bars on the screen. The graphics are a little outdated, but over time you get used to it.
As a result, I can advise fans of Residents and lovers of bloody adventures to try it out. For those who are looking for a game for scares and a beautiful story, then this is not the place for you.
P.s. I don’t rate multiplayer and localization
