Played this with my family and had an amazing time full of laughs and scares.

Movement control was a little slippery, but apart from that this game felt really good to play.

It sounded fantastic, even emulating disc loading sounds on the optional door-loading animations, and the ambient soundtrack is wonderful (available on Spotify, too). Visually it's a treat, with a ton of different visual options available to switch between at any point from the options menu, affecting the video quality in different evocative ways. Textures are susceptible to warping, which I think is really neat.

The story is gross, but also quite effective. The characters are fun, with silly, memorable dialogue and good voice acting. As for the horror gameplay? Genuinely frightening. The kind of cat and mouse chase play that has freaked me out ever since resident evil 3 on the PS1.

Brilliant game that I can't wait to show off to my friends. The prologue and post credits sequence are brilliant.
