It's always nice to discover things that completely passed me by, because I'd never heard of the game before and now that I've finished it, I can only say that I'm very pleasantly surprised. As a result I immediately added 35MM and 7th Sector to my Wishlist, now i'm hooked in what else this developer has in store. But it wasn't survival horror in my opinion, yea it's dark and oppressive from time to time, but harmless. In The Light we walk through the dilapidated remains of a former life, through and around an abandoned building shell. I used to explore real lost places a lot and I think the game reflect the atmosphere quite well but deals with very serious issues, which are unfortunately still very topical. I had no problem at all with most of the puzzles, but then there were two where I only solved one by pure chance and the other I had to look up and wondered if I would ever have solved it on my own, I mean probably would have done it eventually ; ) With the combinations of the locks you just have to look for clues and try them out, luckily it worked relatively quickly for me. The music/soundtrack and melodies always manage to evoke different moods, fit incredibly well and I also liked the sound design.

I loved this game up to the point that I've played through it for a couple of times to get all the achievements. It's basically a walking simulator but much better than the typical games of this genre where you are stuck in an apartment and keep walking through the same four rooms for an hour to trigger some events. The Light Remake looks stunning. The devs definitely put effort into many small but beautiful or unsettling effects. The sounds and music are amazing as well and especially the part in the underground bunker is claustrophobic and terrifying. The feeling of being stuck in a sitution like that is perfectly shown and you can easily imagine how death could have been the better option. Without telling too much, you are playing some kind of survivor or lost soul that is stuck in a run down school building after some fictional bombing event set in modern Russia. The eerie atmosphere and solitude are making this short game a true masterpiece and I can easily recommend it for the price. Playtime is about 2 hours for the first playthrough but it can easily be speedran in 30 minutes for completion. The message will leave you thinking... alot.

Very short game but well done. Surely the graphics and the setting are what fascinate the most. At the beginning it is a bit boring but then it takes a good pace. Price adequate to the duration. My rating 7/10
