The Town of Light

12 March 1938. Renée, 16 years old, is ripped out of her world, locked up and deprived of everything.
Her only fault was that she didn't know what her place in the world was.

The only horror you will find in this game is the truth: a blow to the solar plexus, much more intense than any supernatural presence

Tragic walking sim but sadly too slow
The Town of Light is a walking sim game, and while it might look like a horror game, it's not. There are no monsters or ghosts, but the overall atmosphere and some flashback scenes can be disturbing. You play as a woman named Renée, who travels into an abandoned mental asylum, trying to remember what happened. The scary part is the true story of abuse patients there, and Renée herself, endured when she stayed there. This game is... honestly kinda boring. I know what to expect since I played many walking sims, but the plot here is just too slow. Basically just like walking from room to room, reading notes, see some flashbacks, and that's it. There isn't really much to explore, and my favorite parts of the game are the ones where you're finally able to explore the asylum grounds, like the graveyard, gardens, and all that. There's also no option to pause the game during some flashbacks, which can be annoying if you have to go during the scene. This game also causes me nausea for some reason. However The Town of Light isn't all bad. It has great level design, the asylum and the details looks realistic. There's also some "choices matter" scenario that makes the next chapter have a bit different dialogue. The central theme is also an important one, since it's about patient abuse by doctors in the not-so-ancient 20th century. I think this game would be better if the flashbacks were explored in more detail. I'd honestly give this game a mixed rating, it's not a bad game by any means, but not a great one as well.

Must Try for the story
Deals with some heavy topics on historical medical field. Story heavy and not much to gameplay.

Okay game, but wouldn't play again. The ending was not worth the game

Sad story.
What makes it sad is that its based on real life events that happened around the world. It brings light to some of the cruel practices done around the world.
