I ranked this 9 because this game is just amazing I chose 9 because of 5 things I focus on when reviewing, it's Quality, Scares, Lag, Length and Story (atmosphere and stuff like that is included in the Quality!)
Quality: Great Quality! The atmosphere is creepy and the monsters look really good (isn't that thing in their stomach something you get when your born?) Some bugs here and there, just good graphics aswell :D Scares: Some Jumpscares and Scares here and there quite good ones, I liked it and how the monsters had random items in their hands like flashlights, fireaxes, pickaxes, etc :D Creepy! Lag: experienced some lag here and there but that was because of my GFX card so :P Length: Pretty good length, could be enough for like 15-18 episodes long :D Story: Ah, yes, the best of the whole game! You start off getting a letter from your father from a mine in Greenland, but this is Overture! Black Plague! Still looking for your father you venture around with monsters around you or so called, the infected, they are human! Only the infection spread and made humans into disgusting creatures! As you venture you will have another person around with you, just this one, is in your head, his name is Clarence and he absolutely wants you dead! You find your father dead later on! You also find this woman Amabell which you kill because of Clarence made you see things! In the end Clarence gets out of your head, since you made a cure but as I expected, Clarence now became whole, he found a dead body of one of those creatures and tries to kill you, but not for long! Some ancients of them comes to the rescue and kills him for good! The ending of it is rather odd and just time taking... But good puzzles, EXTREMELY hard for my brain to handle on it's own xD HUGE 10 I wanted to add Overtures story aswell, just not enough letters!
Quality: 9 - Scares: 8 - Lag: 9 - Length: 9 - Story: 10 Therefore I choose 9, lovely game one of the best stories I have ever seen in a game ever, good job!
