It's a series of on-rails short stories that range from mediocre to actually pretty decent. The atmosphere in them can be quite effective, especially in the later episodes, and despite the very dated graphics, some of the environments can be beautiful in their own right.

The environments are stunning, and the world is truly alien. Game play is just mediocre, and while there is a story, good luck trying to decipher whatever the hell is going on as you play it. I ended up buying the art book since I loved how grotesque and beautiful the art direction was.

I loved this game. It absolutely oozes atmosphere, and that kept me hooked longer than the game play loop did. Even though most of the maps are procedurally generated, they still manage to look gorgeous. Driving along a cliff side overlooking a valley during sunset looks stunning, and driving through an abandoned town during sunrise can be hauntingly beautiful. The game can also be quite creepy when you're traveling through the forest at night time with pouring rain, and some sort of anomaly stalking you just outside of your light's reach, only being illuminated when lightning strikes. While you're driving you also can turn on your car's radio - though sometimes you might pick up something you'd rather not hear, it's really great stuff. The story is just ok, game play is serviceable and can be addictive for a little while, but the atmosphere is second to none.

I'll counter the other comment here by saying I really enjoyed this game a lot. If you're going AFK simply to wait for the meters to go up, then I hate to say it, but you're playing it wrong. There are multiple tools available to speed up production of Oxygen, pressure, and the other gauges. Not to mention there are a lot of hidden locations throughout the maps that you need to go out of your way to explore for, though I suppose all of it is optional. Watching the planet terraform slowly over the hours is a real treat too.

It's an interesting liminal space horror game. Play in a dark room, wear headphones, and get immersed in the world as you wander around aimlessly. Can be effective, but I have to be in the right mood to play it.

Wouldn't exactly call this a horror game. It's a very novel concept though, and can be fun to play at times. Talking to the Cryptmaster can be a lot of fun, I found myself just typing random nonsense to see how he reacts to everything.

Really funny how fitting this is, considering Terminator: Genisys and Homeworld 3, the next movie/game in each series were both very negatively received.

Only tried this game due to this list. Very, very, very short game, but it's a really fun puzzle/platformer for those 20~ minutes. Would love this concept expanded into a full game with multiple levels, and maybe additional mechanics and hazards, but for 3 bucks I can't really complain.

I really enjoyed the episode. I like the fact that even around friends that won't hurt him, he's constantly on a hair trigger and afraid of when he'll be attacked next. His reactions to Dog in particular I thought were pretty damn funny, and I loved the idea to make the gravity gun very unwieldy, it will lead to some interesting changes for sure. I look forward to seeing how Gordon will react to Ravenholm.

This game is actually pretty good. The atmosphere is really damn intense, and I can only play it for short bursts of time before I chicken out and turn it off. I adore horror games, but something about this one just freaks me the hell out. I think it's a combination of the archaic graphics and the excellent sound design, I'm always thinking there's something behind me, only to turn around and see nothing. I know games that have a lot of Youtube Reactionaries playing it tend to turn a lot of people away from them, but this one is actually worth your time.

Deadly Premonition is a great game to watch. Find someone doing a 100% play through on Youtube, and watch that instead of playing it. The story, quirky characters, and setting definitely make it worth checking out, but the whole GAME part of it is really bad, like REALLY bad.

I'm eager to see those levels as well. Since there's a lot less action going on, we'll actually have time to hear his thoughts on the Earth's present situation, among other things.

Holy crap man, YEARS ago I watched a guy named Spoony play through this entire game, and watching your Game Dungeon on it just brings back a lot of memories of it. I might go ahead and watch his entire playthrough again after this. It's funny how Trevor is treated differently - you see him as annoying, but in Spoony's playthrough he was pretty much everyone's favorite character. In fact, Excellent episode overall. I look forward to the follow up episode sometime after the Christmas episode!

Haha, holy crap, if you didn't enjoy it that much, why'd you even play it all the way through to the end? Also, might want to cut out all of the spoilers from your post, since you kind of spoil almost the entire story. Edit: One last thing too,

I didn't even know this was coming out until I came across it on this list. I freaking LOVED Until Dawn, so I figured this would be right up my alley. It was honestly just okay. Maybe it's better with friends doing the multiplayer mode they added, but as a single player experience it's just not super great. The story this time around isn't as fun or crazy as Until Dawn, and it's much shorter as well. Additionally, the animations in general are a lot less polished this time around, and some of the facial animations are damn scary. The characters in this game don't really have much personality beyond what is shown within the first twenty minutes or so, and they stay static for the entire duration. I didn't find them to be offensive or anything, and I liked them all well enough, but by the end (assuming your character makes it), they've not really changed much despite what they've experienced. Also, they make some immensely idiotic decisions at times, especially by the end of the game when they learn about what's truly going on. Lastly, getting everyone to survive is pretty damn easy. It was easy in Until Dawn too, but at least in that one there were eight characters, and I didn't beat the game without a few deaths. Overall, if you like these kind of games, where you get to make choices and basically watch it like a movie, then you'll probably enjoy this too. Otherwise, just avoid it.
