Them & Us reviews

Them and Us is a courageous project that deserves respect for its ambition and sincerity. Developed almost single-handedly, it's a heartfelt homage to classic Resident Evil — fixed cameras, scarce resources, typewriter saves, and a creepy mansion to explore. The atmosphere is claustrophobic and well-rendered for a solo project, and the retro creature designs have charm. But the writing is clumsy, the characters lack depth, combat is rudimentary, and some puzzles are illogical. Bugs and uneven polish are ever-present. Old-school survival horror fans looking for a cheap nostalgia hit will find something to enjoy. Everyone else will likely be put off by the inevitable roughness of a handmade production. A touching, imperfect but endearing homage. Full French review: https://rogueh24.fr/test-du-jeu-them-and-us/
