A Flawed Descent into Occult Horror
Well, what can I say about this... interesting attempt? First off, this isn’t a walking simulator—it’s pure stealth, with original mechanics and grotesque (though less gothic) settings compared to the hellscapes we’re used to seeing in art. The design is strikingly faithful to biblical descriptions from Ezekiel or Revelation. The story is easily the highlight: You play a king pivotal to evil’s reign, worshiping your queen, Ishtar. A brutal premise for anyone who loves occult lore from the Key of Solomon. This is a distinct vision of hell—though its mechanics could use polish. Death comes often, but dying because of the level design itself? That’s a flaw. I get that you’re meant to feel hell’s agony, but getting stuck mid-chase is frustratingly frequent. The body-possession mechanic is undeniably cool, yet it lacks impact. I never truly felt like a demon—just something big or fast enough to slice through enemies. The sluggish movement and feeble jump make exploration exhausting. I didn’t expect to prance through hell, but clunking around like a clumsy anteater? Not quite the vibe. It evoked more curiosity than fear, like wandering through one of those eerie, offbeat carnival museums. Survival-horror fans might struggle with this one—it’s stealth at its core, as I said. Good ideas, but rough execution. A hell worth visiting... if you’ve got patience.
