Waking in the dead of night, naked and hooked up to some kind of outdated medical equipment in a bathtub, Caroline must fight for her life as she explores the halls of the abandoned mansion.

Underrated survival horror game that is an easy recommend to anyone who likes classic Resident Evil and Silent Hill. Capture the classic survival horror vibe perfectly, and between the gameplay, graphics, and even the cheesy voice acting, feels exactly like a forgotten, obscure PS2 game, and that's a complement. Great monster design, and excellent puzzles and mechanics. My only criticisms are that the 'stalker' enemy the game introduces later on is pretty lame and underwhelming, and the lack of unlockables and extra difficulties give it pretty limited replay value.

I love how the story is heavily connected. All the diary entries show different aspects of the story from different perspectives, and even reference locations in the game. You can read a diary entry, visit a location, and see evidence of what the diary entry was talking about.
And the game is quite scary, at least for me. All four times I played it (if less so the fourth time). Great atmosphere.

Acho muito legal conseguir ver exatamente quais aspectos de resident evil e silent hill influenciaram esse jogo ao mesmo tempo que conseguiram criar uma identidade bem própria

there's one fucker that won't die

It has a depressing atmosphere, the level designs and puzzle designs are very enjoyable. So it has more or less everything you'd expect from an old-school horror survival game but of average quality. Where it falls behind is that it has an overly clichéd storyline and the in-game mechanics don't have anything to do with the story.

Switch off the lights and circle around corpse anti clockwise after wasting 2 hours looking for the next puzzle, No thank you.
