What a horrible night to have a curse!

Someone should have warned the Covenant children: “Never read aloud strange rituals.” Little did they know that their childish game would unleash unspeakable horrors upon the unsuspecting world. Now, many years later, Jeremiah Covenant, the last sane sibling, lies on his deathbed knowing his fragile existence is the only thing restraining the curse. His only hope is Patrick Galloway, a fellow soldier from the Great War and a specialist in abolishing evil abominations.
Welcome to Clive Barker’s Undying, a horrifying FPS romp of curses, strange, mad creatures, and family dysfunction gone terribly wrong. Step into the shoes of Patrick Galloway as you attempt to banish the evil using your arcane magic and the ever-dependable six shooter of metal grace. Pray to whatever god you believe in because this journey may end up costing your soul. First person shooter meets the contemporary master of horror fiction, don't miss it!
Clive Barker’s Undying is a game that still manages to send chills down your spine, even after all these years. The sound effects, dark atmosphere, and unique horror vibe make it a true classic. I would love to see a remastered version — this masterpiece deserves a second life.
Fun 10 - 12 hour shooter with great atmosphere and level design, ending does seem a bit rushed and the final boss takes way too long to die to the point I thought the game was bugged... but still worth playing
There is a whole sea of gamers who'd appreciate Undying only if they knew about it. For its time the game had very interesting graphics and physics that you won't find in other games.
Undying maybe not a cult-classic like DooM, System Shock, Unreal, Duke Nukem 3D, but it have it's own atmosphere and spirit. An rare mix between horror, adventure, shooter and small bits of RPG (Really small) made a fancy 3d story that could keep you near screen for next few hours. Premise of story is simple as it almost iconic for horror genre - our army-friend in need called fo aid. And task is ain't simple as it look first. The whole setting of game is unique - Begining of 20's century, with flow of mysticsism and good collection of horrors. As for gameplay it's quite fancy shooter with adventure-and-rpg elements such as sort of upgrading magics and having inventory managment of sort. Between shooting monsters and banishing supernatural evil protagonist will search for keys, clues, and solve puzzles in way of "find key here, make a route and open previously closed door" or "snap levers in right order to proceed". With help of trusty weapons and supernatural magical skills we travel across this beautiful and yet cursed lands solving puzzles and eradicating enemies with quite impressive arsenal of magical spells and some fancy weapons. It's ain't biggest arsenal in shooters but quite decent. Sounds, graphics, atmosphere and story is strong parts of this classic, Yet there some "cons" that i want to light up
-Small locations-levels - you will see "Loading" screen more than you expect from such game.
-Some levels beside having nice architecture is quite...empty. I guess it made for suspence of horror but not work good as it expected.
-Many puzzles and key-seekings is all about backtracking, and that quite repetive and also no map. Sometimes player need to make a huge "hook" over road to reach once closed doors with key.
So i say some pros too
-Gameplay - anything you wanted from horror shooter from days of classics is here with thick atmosphere.
-Graphis and SFX - they decent even on modern terms
-Arsenal and bestiary - not so big but really can suprise!
Important notes before I start the review: Honestly not many, this game runs great from the get-go so you have no need to worry about installing fan patches to make it work properly. There's no 1080p resolution but I wouldn't recommend you install any patches for that, the game is fine the way it is (use 1600x1200 resolution). However, if you want subtitles there are patches for various languages. They can be found on this page: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Clive_Barker%27s_Undying#Localizations (highlight this URL then right-click it for options). Other than that, nothing else. Let's begin.
Clive Barker's Undying is a 2001 horror first-person shooter written by renowned horror author Clive Barker, most famous for the "Hellraiser" and "Candyman" series, which have both been adapted into films. This game takes place in the 1920s and follows an Irish paranormal investigator called Patrick Galloway, who is determined to put an end to a horrible family curse that has been tormenting his old friend and fellow war veteran, Jeremiah Covenant. As Patrick, you must fight various deadly foes in the Covenant Estate, caverns, ruins, other dimensions etc. with an arsenal of weapons and spells and also face off against Jeremiah's siblings who have been dreadfully transformed by the curse. There's also an old nemesis of yours who has sinister plans of his own....
Now that I've written a brief summary of this game, I'd like to talk about some of the things that I love about it. However, due to GOG's very restrictive character limit I cannot get into as much detail as I'd like to, so I'll make this quick: Clive Barker's Undying boasts some unique and memorable locations (e.g. Oneiros), diverse enemies as well as fun weapons and spells. Good challenge too, I'd say the main complaint that I have is that the horror aspect fell quite flat for me. Also the final boss is crappy.
So to put it shortly: It's great. Play it.
