No Spoilers Review The Park is a walking-sim horror game developed by Funcom. It's an interesting idea, a mother searching for her lost son in an amusement park late at night. Meanwhile the park itself has a hidden past of its own. Unfortunately the execution of this game is not as interesting. I've played and enjoyed many games of this type in the past but found this one to be incredibly bland and boring. None of the scares ever really landed effectively with me plus nothing of note ever really happens. The story never really grips you. The first part of the game basically follows this pattern: - Walk to the next amusement park ride on the linear path. - See your character go on the ride while some talking goes on. - Exit the ride. When you reach the last section, you end up walking through a series of rooms which mutate (Layers Of Fear style only not quite as well done) every next time you go through them. Again nothing of note, nothing gripping, nothing scary is ever really there while you're doing this. Then the game ends. There's nothing more I can really add. It's a pretty nice looking, samey, non-scary, boring bland experience. Not recommended at full price. Wait for a sale. A good sale at that.
