What a great game to be my first review here.

This game is a masterpiece, one of the best horror games I've ever played and one of my favorites, instantly. Words can barely do it justice.

It is a mix of the best classic Survival Horrors, a true love letter to the PSX era, but while other indie horror games try (and often succeed, I'm not trying to take away from then) to simply recapture the essence of that time, Signalis goes above and beyond and elevates it.

By this I mean that while it's gameplay is a great recreation of those games, Signalis' narrative and aesthetic style it's it own thing, unique, taking from sources so varied as the games it's inspired by, legendary anime, lovecraftian literature, classical music... and it mixes all those influences in a way that they are clearly recognizable without taking away from the game's originality, and creating a unique substance that sets Signalis apart from any other title

The game can be a little clunky at times, specially when it comes to grabbing items or passing trough doors, and the very limited inventory can be a bit of a hassle, but these two problems are far outweighted by how great this game is.

The most amazing thing is that this game was made by two people, and to me, it is a strong contender form the best game of this year, Elden Ring notwithstanding
