You Are Empty takes place in 1955 in alternative Soviet Union, where Joseph Stalin still reigns. In an attempt to ensure the global victory of Communism, the government has constructed a massive psychic antenna to broadcast a reality-altering signal designed to transform the population of the Soviet Union into supermen. However, the experiment goes horribly wrong, and most of the population is either killed or transformed into homicidal mutants.
A misunderstood and underrated gem with fantastic level design and
atmosphere, very satisfying psychics, memorable enemies and a unique way of telling its story.
I just finished my first playthrough of the game today and just... wow 🤯 how this game doesn't get talked about more is beyond me, it's absolutely stellar! I had originally found it on MyAbandonware and went in with zero expectations, but right out the gate it sought to impress players with it's uniquely animated cutscenes and Soviet-era art style. What starts off as an Outlast mixed with Condemned horror games quickly turns into a well paced FPS/horror hybrid, with a pretty unique story to boot! While I would advise to be weary of the graphic content found in the game, if your are a fan of horror and slick aesthetics, then this is an absolute must play! Don't doddle, download it!!
Here is some gameplay from this game, feel free to use the footage for whatever!
A underrated game, but some issues in gameplay make this more.... understable.
Fantastic atmosphere and location designe.
underrated gem
