April 2025
A great short horror game with PS1 vibes. I love the aesthetic and the graphics style options it gives you, from VHS style to 16mm camera, etc. It'll delight fans of bad horror B-movies like me, and those who enjoy classic puzzles from series like Resident Evil or Silent Hill. My only complaint is that, unlike those two game series, the tank camera controls feel clunky and disorienting. But hey, I guess it adds to the classic feel.

The Tank controls with some of the awkward camera angles can be frustrating at times but there is a first person mode thats pretty good and the vibes are peak 80's slasher flick mixed with some Resi 1 styled game play, totally worth the play if that sounds interesting too you!

A fun homage to exploitation horror and old school survival horror. Not difficult in any regard, you can beat it in an evening. I would say this game is best played when you're in a spooky mood (or if it's October) and want to waste an evening. Definitely recommend, especially if it's on sale.

Purchased this based on the VHS/PS1 aesthetic alone, and was NOT disappointed. Although its kind of short, the game will keep you on your toes throughout without ever feeling stale. If you like old-school survival horror DO NOT miss this!
