From the Depths of the Ocean to the Depths of Fear Man of Medan is an interactive horror game that plunges you into a mysterious story of five young people who find themselves trapped aboard a derelict World War II military ship. What starts as a casual diving trip quickly turns into a nightmare filled with dark secrets, hallucinations, ghosts of the past — and an unknown evil lurking in the shadows. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3347257915 Every Choice - A Chance to Survive or Die The story unfolds through cinematic scenes and branching choices where every decision can lead to a character's survival or death. The atmosphere is a thick blend of maritime isolation, old legends, and the creeping feeling of losing your grip on reality. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3379717520 Fear Crawling from the Depths of the Mind What stands out: - Intriguing, layered plot with unexpected twists. - Constant tension and unease: you never know what's real. - Strong psychological horror without relying on cheap jump scares. - Excellent visual design of the ship: narrow hallways, fog, rust — everything breathes fear. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3386011202 A Perfect Horror for Dark Nights and Strong Nerves If you're into dark sea-bound mysteries and games where your choices shape the fate of the characters, Man of Medan offers a powerful experience. Best played at night, with headphones — and maybe not alone.

Jan. 2025
Man of Medan works alright as a horror B movie but it lacks the flair and finesse of Until Dawn. A large part of this is because the story isn't adequately fleshed out. Despite decent VA, the script is subpar and characters often lack proper emotional responses - not to mention odd facial animations and the occasional visual glitch. Spooky jump scares in MoM are aplenty. These are fun to experience with a friend and while making different choices is intriguing and can lead to a character's early demise, MoM's ultimate reveal is underwhelming. Supermassive punctuates each chapter with brief commentary from the curator, an observer NPC who judges your gameplay but doesn't hold a candle to the disturbing presence of Dr. Hill or the Quarry's fortune teller. Still, choices-matter games like these are, much like pure stealth, painfully infrequent so I am grateful for a short unspectacular journey rather than nothing at all. Buy on sale. Achievement hunters please note that one of the trophies requires playing co-op with a friend online.

Man of Medan was my first choice-based multiplayer game, and I had a great time playing it with a friend. The quick decision-making and jump scares kept the tension high, and the intense situations made it a thrilling experience. The gameplay was enjoyable, though there were a few bugs here and there. Given the game’s age, this was understandable. The graphics still hold up well and added to the eerie atmosphere, making the story even more immersive. Overall, it was a unique and fun experience. If you’re into multiplayer games with a focus on choice and suspense, Man of Medan is definitely worth a try!

I love when a game is based on a "true story" and then adds its own spin on it. It's a fun and quality experience, but the main plot point is blatantly obvious in the first 15 minutes of the game. 8/10
