This game definitely understood the assignment. If you're a survival horror fan you should definitely check it out. However, it IS an indie game, so it's pretty rough around the edges and you'll probably need to use a walkthrough to avoid walking in circles endlessly. The level design in particular is more of a nuisance than anything else. I get what they were trying to do, but it just doesn't work. In a survival horror or metroidvania style game the map feels rewarding and it makes sense. But in this game, the "keys" are usually super cryptic and not obvious at all. Many times you will find yourself with an item that you have no idea what it's used for or why you even picked it up. And the maps don't connect (meaning depending on what area you're in that's the only map you'll be able to see). All these types of games have that a little bit, but in this game because of the map design it's just frustrating more than anything else. Overall it's worth playing through at least once, but you may have to resort to using a walkthrough to avoid walking endlessly in circles, the puzzles/keys just aren't intuitive enough. It does more right than it does wrong though, and it's impressive considering it was basically made by two people. Bottom line: If you're not a survival horror fan, it may not appeal to you. Survival horror fans should at least play through this once. I actually may play it again (you can play over the shoulder, fixed camera, or first person) a few years from now around Halloween or something.

I am a sucker for survival horror games and this game definitely delivered. You'll get zombies, a creepy mansion, story delivered mainly through notes and a shotgun. The biggest differentiator from similar games is the ability to play in classic fixed camera, 3rd person and 1st person and also extra endings you can only get on repeated playthroughs. This is also my buggest gripe with the game - the first playthrough features too many locked doors, an alternative dimension and story concepts that don't get resolved during that first playthrough and will confuse new players. Also the shotgun has way too long recovery animation, making it hard to hit certain enemies without getting hit in return. The puzzles are on the easy side, the challenge is more in figuring out where to go rather than what to input there. The game works well on the Deck, with some noticeable frame drops. If you love REmake, RE4 or Tormented Souls, buy this.

Great game if you crave old school survival horror. Think Resident Evil (1996) on a lower budget with a modern presentation. In addition to the tank controls, you can also play the game 3rd person over the shoulder. Maze like opening level with locked doors requiring specific keys that you will come across later. Decent ‘zombie’ variety with good combat. Headshots and kneecapping are rewarded. I found the puzzles a little difficult and the back tracking was overly done, but I still enjoyed the game. I had no performance issues on my 4080 at 4K.

This game is a love letter to classic Resident Evil fans. To progress through the game, you need to solve little riddles and find key items that grant you access to new areas, in a similar fashion to pure survival horror Resident Evil titles. This is, in my opinion, the best aspect of this game, and I especially appreciated the first indoor area, which reminded me of the iconic Spencer mansion, both in terms of setting and exploration. Upon starting a new game, besides the difficulty settings, you will be asked to choose one of the three camera modes: fixed camera, over-the-shoulder third person camera and first person camera. I beat the game with the traditional fixed camera setting, but the presence of other perspectives will certainly be a valid excuse for further playthroughs. Other survival horror elements include limited inventory space, limited resources, option to run past enemies to save ammo, item storage box, limited saves. I'd rather not spoil anything, but I found the "typewriters" of this game a genuinely creative idea. You can also drop items on the ground and pick them up later. It is interesting to see how they actually made this process nice and fluid, unlike Resident Evil 0. There are a few minor hiccups here and there: the title screen and the pause and settings menus are very rudimental (ugly text on a background) and they might not reflect the passion and commitment the developers put into the game; don't be tricked into thinking that it's a bad game because of that. I also found the "fixed moving" camera quite confusing in open spaces (Yes, the fixed camera actually follows you around, more like Code Veronica than the classical trilogy, where it is firmly fixed). Aiming up and down is quite counterintuitive, especially when enemies are higher or lower than you. Shooting up or down enemies on the stairs is not always succesful and bullets sometimes miss when they shouldn't. Overall, I recommend this game to anyone who misses old-school survival horror games. It doesn't always shine with originality, but I do not think that was the priority anyway. Them and us is a nod to the golden days of survival horror, and the quality of its atmosphere, environmental music, level design, puzzles and exploration will make for an unforgettable adventure.

I'm really enjoying 'Them and Us' and highly recommend it to horror fans. This game captures the scary, gritty atmosphere reminiscent of the first Resident Evil games, delivering a true survival horror experience. The story is gripping, with a haunting atmosphere, some puzzles to solve and it pulls you into Alicia’s nightmare as she fights for her life in a world twisted by unknown forces. The combination of fixed camera angles and over-the-shoulder gameplay gives players the flexibility to choose their preferred play style, whether it's a classic or a modern experience. The attention to detail, from the realistic damage system to the challenging puzzles, and the zombies look pretty cool too, it makes every moment tense and immersive. If you're a fan of the genre, this game is a must-play! GG.
