Clunky, not intuitive and obviously limited development resources. However, a great survival game, really leans into the fear and creepiness of the underlying themes and keeps you on edge. For what it is, it's fantastic and I would recommend.

Despite it's short length and limited gameplay Lone Survivor is a good game worth more than one playthrough. The game has a great soundtrack, atmosphere and a fun scoring system. Although I haven't played it, there is a newer edition of this game called Super Lone Survivor, which seems to fix most of the small problems I had with the game. So while this is a perfectly fine game, you should probably buy that edition instead.

My favorite game of all time. It's fairly simple and straightforward, but the atmosphere and story and dialogue are among the very best. I would love if this ever got some sort of literary or film adaptation.

Replayed the game after 9 years. It's...serviceable. I'd say don't play this game though for the horror experience. Most of the fun comes from chasing the best ending where you do sequences correctly.
