Nov. 2024

Best of the Dark Pictures, they did Ashley dirty with that game model but the story was very good with some awesome characters and development.

Sept. 2024

HoA is pretty damn great. Price is a little steep when one run can take 5ish hours. But there are so many permutations to check out, which can lead to more replays. And the graphical quality is great. Even just a couple bucks off would make it worth it, regardless. Only real complaints are how stiff your characters can feel during the walking sections (not the end of the world) and how eye-rolling the love triangle stuff was (thankfully pretty infrequent). This is my favorite episode of Selim the Vampire Slayer. 9/10

Aug. 2024

We really enjoyed this game. We have played the two titles prior as well. Just know what type of game it is going in. Think Walking Dead from Telltale, but the choices actually matter. To the idiot that bitched about not knowing the type of game it was because it wasn't listed on the store page... There's a fucking demo. Leaving this review to offset that guy's negative one.

April 2024

This title includes two of my all time favourite things: archeology and sci-fi horror. However, I think mid-production they forgot this was supposed to be a interactive video game, albeit with its cinematic quirks here and there & NOT a movie. It was still a lot of fun and honestly unnerving but I'm sorry, this is not a video game. Buy it on sale. ps. I love Salim

March 2024

Egyptian mythology, military drama, and vampires; all rolled into a horror drama that the player can't put down. Players will spend marathon session after marathon session exploring every aspect of this interactive narrative that it's creators have meticulously combined into an awesome horror experience. The multitude of possibilities that every playthrough can take will occupy the player for some time. Rated 7 out of 10.
