Solid "Run And Hide" Survival Horror :)
I've just finished playing this fun 1-2 hour "run and hide" survival horror game. Whilst the atmosphere and visual style take a lot of influence from classic "Resident Evil" and "Silent Hill", the gameplay is much closer in style to "Alien: Isolation". But it is its own thing, with a unique personality and sense of humour. It is also balanced to be a more "medium-strength" horror game too :) The tennis ball will instantly save you from the monster, but you either have to retrieve it or go back to another area to get a replacement. The monster moves slowly and is easy to run away from... but there are lots of claustrophobic corridors and dead ends, so you have to know WHERE you are running to. The game is somewhat non-linear (you can find some keys and switches in any order), with a "game world" that is small enough that you won't get lost, but large enough to require some exploration and "learning the layout" too. The lighting and atmosphere are really cool too. It's a shorter game, but it is priced appropriately for its length and it remained good throughout :) Aside from a couple of glitches, my main criticism is the lack of resolution options. On Intel HD 2500 integrated graphics, I got an unplayable 1-5 FPS "out of the box". But, when I used a window-resizing program to set a custom resolution of 800 x 600, I got a "slow, but much more playable" 10-20 (approx) FPS. Proper built-in resolution options would really help this game reach a wider audience (because a PS1-style game shouldn't require a GTX 950....). Still, overall, this is a really solid "quality over quantity" survival horror game :) The site doesn't allow for half-stars, but it would get 4.5/5.
