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!
To have weapons in one hand and spells in the other put it as one of the first to do so, the music and the voice overs are at its best. I played this game for years and now I am enjoying it again, I remember the water moving past the boat as Patrick went to help his friend, the woodwork and items inside the mansion was just fantastic graphics. I do not purchase games unless they have great graphics and audio and this one had both plus a top notch story , I give it 5 VERY LARGE STARS !
Like FPS games? Like horror too? How about a gothic story and setting? You're gonna love this!
I, probably like you, was skeptical about this title at first, but I was happily proven incorrect by this fantastic title!
This game's story is written by Clive Barker and he sure knows how to build a story. For most of the game, it has this dark, haunting, and gothic feel to. There many times where you feel some sense of unease and adventure in others. Overall, the gameplay is solid and can give you a decent challenge, but the spells and unique weapons will definitely help keep you alive.
You play as Patrick Galloway. An Irish adventurer who is investigating occult happenings at the behest of his friend Jeremiah Covenant. Oh man, both Patrick and yourself are in for some spooky stuff, but it is very well presented and pulls you in.
Music matches each setting perfectly. There are some creepy tracks that set the mood perfectly. Voice acting is spot on. In fact, Clive Barker voices Ambrose and does a fantastic job.
Weapons and spells are interesting, while everything remains useful through out the game. I wont spoil any of the fun, but you'll enjoy the variety and the unique designs.
Story is, of course, very well written with very good pacing. You'll want to keep going just to learn what happens next and there are some details that will surprise you. If you enjoy the Legacy of Kain series story, then you'll enjoy this game's script as well.
You'll travel back in time and even to a completely different dimension. All in effort to put your friend's curse to rest and save his life.....maybe......
There are mods available to improve some textures and add some cut content. I recommend playing through once as it's not a very long game, but it is the right length to be enjoyable and not tedious. This is good classic that will be timeless. I hope it gets a remaster, because it is that good. Get it guys. It's worth it.
Hope you enjoyed my review, now go enjoy this game.
Undying captures the spirit of Clive Barker's works in other media, while at the same time providing a setting with a real sense of place and dread.
There are a great variety of environments that manage to evoke real atmosphere, even with the graphical limitations of the engine. The use of lighting and color in the game is admirable, and the violence during combat is appropriately gruesome--little flourishes like tracking blood around for a while after stepping over an enemy's corpse add to the macabre ambiance.
The gameplay is superb, with a commendable mixture of exploration and combat. The combat is visceral and empowering, but though you can dual-wield spells and weapons (the coolest of these is the Scythe of the Celt, which can decapitate and sever foes in half), there is still a sense of urgency and real terror in some sequences. Boss fights aren't especially exciting, but some of them certainly have something going for them.
The story, crafted by Barker himself, is original enough to stand out, but is by no means incredible. Still, the game is polished to a spit-shine and is packed with little details that set it apart from most other horror shooters. I will definitely be re-purchasing it now that it has graced GOG with its presence.
I played this game almost 10 years ago and it is still obe of the best horror titles arround even after all these years. All its superb story, design, pacing and overall atmosphere has held up quote nicely and it is highly recommended
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
