Alan Wake Lite
GYLT was in danger of becoming a game that would be lost in time after the plug was pulled on Google Stadia. Thankfully it has now been ported to PC where it looks, runs, and plays smoothly. With bullying as its core theme, supported by a minimal cast of characters, the story GYLT tells is compelling and the voice acting manages to sell it well too. The artstyle is lovely. Gameplay wise its linearity keeps the pace tight. Stealth & exploration are key here. By no means is this an open world game but exploring the town and campus is encouraged and rewarding. Sally, our main protagonist, is armed with naught but a flashlight which is primarily used for exploration and solving environmental puzzles. The puzzles are easy to sometime clever, nothing advanced. Defeating enemies with the flashlight is obviously also a possibility though one can go the pacifist route by evading all enemies (except bosses). There's only four or so enemies with little variation in their behavior; pacing back and forth, and chasing Sally upon detection. There's three endings but only one demands an additional play through if the player hasn't met all the requirements. The soundtrack is absolutely stellar, composed by Cris Velasco (Carrier, Darksiders III, Prototype, Clive Barker's Jericho)! Overall, I enjoyed my 5 hour playthrough of GYLT. It felt like Alan Wake Lite with some Silent Hill vibes thrown in the mix. As a horror game, is it scary? Not quite, some spooky imagery and a jump-scare here and there. Two stars in the horror department. 4 stars in total since it's being sold at a fair price for a budget title that is a joy to play.
