Into The Gloom reviews

Early access review + 1 I recommend this game. Rather retro/minimalistic graphics that I personally appreciate even if the only "creepy" decorations are hung guys and traces of blood on the walls. Level gameplay, we advance and we come out of enigmas that are pretty well thought for the most (not to be confused well considered and difficult, it is not the sea to drink to solve them either). The Screamer don't look like anything in the teaser but are still surprising, I play a lot of survival horror and usually I just have a little "top the heart" but I could not tell why these jump scare really make me jump. Finally come the phase of escape, a ghost appears and it is game over if it catches you, you can not hide or anything, you have to run and unless there are levels or you can turn in circles, there is never 36000 place to go and these phases of escape seem rather "corridor" and scripted. Scenario level we are explained at the end, if we die or if we finish the game. It's not madness level research but it's still nice and effective. For €3 there is no hesitation of mass if you want to spend a good time into the gloom:)

Horror Game more than interesting. At first glance It seems the typical simple game that takes advantage of retro graphics to make simple frights and little else. But I was surprised with a well-crafted plot, which is something typical in the genre after all, but is very well taken thanks to its multiple endings as you go. The indirect narrative is very good, you discover things yourself by relating what you see and the notes you find. And If you do not just understand everything, have thought very well about it and have put a zone of notes that you unlock where they explain everything. The game is not too long, although I have finished making the end more extensive to get, but as you stay with the easy first is half the time, but you perdereis a lot of history. It is Also to be appreciated that it does not lengthen more than the account because it could fall in the monotony. The Ambience is great, those 8 bit you feel great, but it is the set of how it has been created, color tones and context which makes it all so well. The game is tense above all and the ambience and situations make you flinch. Few Frights that if, some ghost that jumps you suddenly but little more, which I appreciate, because I prefer that fear and tension continued that not the easy scare. In Short, recommended game to those who like horror games with more elaborate plot of what seems to the naked eye. Do Not expect great gameplay or great epics and originalities because it is not original, but within the seen, is quite different from the usual with what is worth playing. It is Also translated into Spanish another very good point. If you do not like the Games Cripticos or you have to turn yourselves to the head to understand things or not cool environments so rare/abstract, better not play xD. The rest, that you want some different terror and at the same time complex despite its simplistic mechanics, I recommend it. And on price always good cheap, and offers even more. I'Ve paid a lot more for horrendous games xD.
