The Real Review

People are digging this retro survival horror from Malformation Games for its tense atmosphere and classic feel, with the graphics and story getting high marks. The high value score shows folks feel it's a solid package for the price, but the punishing difficulty is a common frustration. However, the near-universal complaint is its terrible performance, which many players say is riddled with bugs and crashes, especially on PC. A vocal few praised the deliberate tank controls and fixed camera angles, but your enjoyment hinges on whether you can tolerate the technical mess.
