‎GYLT is a survival horror game developed by Tequila Works that explores themes of bullying and childhood trauma through a "delicate psychological horror" lens. ‎Are you ready for this? ‎ ‎Gamers will play as Sally, or I'd rather say guiding her throughout the game. She is a young girl searching for her missing cousin, Emily, in the fictional mining town of Bethelwood, Maine. ‎ ‎After being chased by local bullies, Sally is transported to a twisted, nightmarish version of her town where her fears and memories manifest as real. Silent Hill déjà vu, anyone? ‎ ‎The narrative heavily focuses on the emotional impact of bullying and how inaction or guilt can shape a person's world. ‎ ‎The game emphasizes stealth. Carefully sneaking past enemies rather than direct confrontation. You can use environmental distractions, like throwing soda cans, to lure monsters away. ‎And similar to Alan Wake, Sally's primary "weapon" is a flashlight. It can be used to stun enemies or hit glowing weak spots to defeat them. ‎This game will also sharpen up your smart brain to solve linear environmental puzzles and find collectibles like diaries that flesh out the lore. ‎ ‎What I love the most from GYLT? ‎It has multiple endings! ‎There are three different endings based on your choices and how many collectibles (like caged canaries or stone figures) you recover. ‎ ‎Originally released in 2019 as the first Google Stadia exclusive, the game eventually went multiplatform following Stadia's shutdown. ‎ ‎This game is still available on Steam, PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One & Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch by the time I wrote and post this review. ‎As of March 2026, there have been reports of the game being delisted from certain digital storefronts like the PlayStation Store. ‎So better buy it while it's still around and purchasable, before it's permanently gone. ‎ ‎GYLT has quickly become a standout in my library. It’s a masterfully crafted psychological horror game that balances a creepy, Tim Burton-esque atmosphere with a deeply moving story about bullying. If you’re looking for a game that is as emotional as it is eerie, this is a must-have for your collection! ‎ ‎+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ‎ ‎I hate bullies. ‎From the playground to the boardroom, bullying remains the weapon of the weak. ‎It’s a cowardly attempt to bankrupted someone else’s self-worth just to feel 'rich' for a moment. But let’s call it what it is: the lowest form of loser behavior. ‎There is no glory in a fight where only one side is throwing punches; there is only the pathetic shadow of a small person trying to look tall. ‎ ‎Don't let a coward rewrite your worth. The scars they leave are proof that you survived their worst, but they don't get to own your future. ‎ ‎You are more powerful than the fear they sell. ‎

Good as baby's first horror game in a Alan Wake meets Stranger things type of setting and gameplay loop, It's a bit preachy in it's themes but outside of that the game is quite well polished and enjoyable in what it sets out to do. Worth a pick up on sale

GYLT may be short and its gameplay simple, but it leaves a mark — not on your reflexes, but on your thoughts. A quiet, melancholy journey that reminds us: sometimes, the scariest monsters are the ones we carry inside.
