- Very nice game taken account that only one independent developer made because got two such a large open world areas etc.. many do only some short 30-40min mostly boring horror games with very small game world. - But if not taken that account game world feels sometimes little bit boring especially part two when you need run over the same area again and again and do boring fps stylish shooting with crappy enemy animations/AI - Controls/game play sometimes are very janky/annoying example get stuck easily places and when you need to run got annoying delay before character starts to run and boss battle is very annoying because sometimes beast bites you partly through the stone pillar etc or you get stuck inside the beast.. - Also animations are very poor and game crashes sometimes after exiting the cave in first part often and one time freezes when the end cut scene need to be roll and game end but it got stuck here and it`s very annoying if you try no save crystals achievement run and game crashes game still luckily saves some parts so not a whole game again still so not very big problem and sometimes game freezes my computer after exiting so i need to log out. - Nice thing that got two open world areas and those are nice to explore mostly and enemies are different stylish no same always and story is okay. atmosphere is sometimes nice/scary too. - Nice to play through but nothing special, ok game so maybe 6/10 on this because got it goodly discounted price, in full price maybe 5/10 or 4/10 game in my opinion.

Nov. 2024
TLDR; Game's confused on what it should be- but I had fun playing it. Spoilers ahead Part 1: It started out extremely strong. You and your fiance went to an island, you two are split up under mysterious circumstances. It was like an investigative horror game where you'd enter multiple scenes of people dead, dying, or you being responsible for their death. Once you collected all 4 souls you can visit your fiance on the pier- and then a giant alien saucer abducts the both of you. Then you play as a character locked away in a lighthouse on the same island, see the corpse of your sister. Then you play as the character who locked himself in a trailer for the first part of the game. Part 2: So the character you played as right at the end of part 1 is a hunter and went out to go hunt some creature in a hunting ground area or something like that. Super simplified; you kill 3 animals, inject their body with some sleeping medicine, go back to see if the creature ate their body, follow the creature, and kill it in a cave. Apparently the creature is actually created by the aliens to harvest human souls (because it's the most powerful energy source says the aliens), so they can fly humans to a new planet so they prosper. Right at the very end of the game I got used to shooting the aliens but by the Gods did this game give me whiplash on the reveal of the aliens. Is this game worth $10? I'd argue it's worth half the price. It's rough around the edges but fun to play.
