The verdict

A polished, atmospheric Lovecraftian Resident Evil-style survival horror game with clunky combat. Skip it if you want an open-world detective sequel to The Sinking City.

Great for

Resident Evil and Silent Hill fans who love Lovecraftian settings and don't need the first game's detective work

Main risk

Expecting an open-world detective sequel and getting a linear RE-style shooter with frustrating combat

What players love

Satisfying Resident Evil-style survival horror loop

Mentioned in ~3 in 5 positive reviews

“The game has everything I love from survival horror games: exploration, item gathering, light puzzle solving, finding lore and notes, inventory management, creepy vibes.”
