I find this game rather very depressing and usually when I play horror games I explore the beauty of a horror game but with cry of fear, I have only felt depression and have not even felt fear only just the sense of loss and isolation. All in all though this game is excellent for showing emotion and not really any original horror feel.

In theme this is a great game and is able to give off a great atmosphere. Clearly inspred from silent hill, which is always good, in fact going deeper into it It, it gets better, but the start of the game isn't great, the sp00ky jumpscare at the start can give a bad impression. The combat? Its really not that good either, its melee combat is preety terrible and its placement of enemies really makes it look confused, it wanting to be a SH esc game, or a dead space game, though for the atmosphere its amazing and I'd suggest trying it out for that.

This game fucks with your head. An immersive story, never-ending suspense, Cry of Fear has earned its name. As someone that suffers from depression and anxiety, this hit a little close to those nerves, but surprisingly, was very therapuedic. Simon Henrikkson is no hero, no carrier of hope like mainstream or average titles. He's a very flawed human. No magic, no powers, just him. When you play, you aren't just controlling Simon, you ARE Simon. Every action you do (i.e. story choices or certain boss fights) is what you would do in that situation. Will you run from your guilt? Or will you fight back? The choice is yours.

Very good game you can play with your friends and its very simple and scary, my only problem is that when i played with my brother every time we went to the next stage it kicked me because of chat and i didnt use the chat and then i lost my things when i rejoined. Anyways very good game very good story.
