Man of Medan, the first game in the spooky Dark Pictures Anthology, is a decent way to kill a few hours with friends. The story has a cool premise, and there's some genuine tension figuring out who you can trust. However, the characters are pretty forgettable, the scares are mostly cheap jump scares, and some of the technical stuff is wonky. If you're into choose-your-own-adventure style horror games, it's not bad, especially for couch co-op, but it's not exactly groundbreaking.
