Still i finished it for the story that can be interesting in rare occasions but promptly fall into the cliché of better games than what Moons of madness ultimately is.Shoot ‘Em Up Fans and Collectors can get even more excited as Eschatos is accompanied by its two spiritual predecessors and Qute’s first releases, Judgement Silversword and Cardinal Sins. Alien Isolation, Prey or Amnesia to name a few, and it doesn't hold a candle to them. I played many sim games, more scary, more entertaining than this game. I enjoyed some of the side characters presented (shout out Declan) but they were never truly fleshed out and the computer logs, you can find throughout the game to know better about them and also revealing the mysteries of what's happening on Mars, weren't that pleasant and interesting to read, too much scientist boring lingo for the sake of it!įinally i won't recommend to pay to play this game if you are as much into this genre as me. Taking about the story now, it is not fleshed out, it is rushed, not very scary and the mystery aint entertaining or even compelling. Game loop is uninspired too, the objectives are quite boring to complete because of too much backtracking and redundancy.įind this item, then do this puzzle, then unlock the next level. Puzzles really bothered me the most and stressed me out, they're never explained properly to ease their completions, in fact i needed to use Youtube video guides several time to resolve them.ĭon't get me started on the qte's parts that start appearing from nowhere, in the most boring boss battle ever ( you heard me well a boss battle in a sim game) they were terrible and almost made me quit the game and never going back!Įxploration is never rewarded and very linear because the level-design is not that great, the same assets are used in every rooms (looking at boring rocks, seriously?) and very narrow areas and corridors to explore are used constantly. One word comes to mind "frustration", it occurs too many times to the detriment of the horrifying atmosphere, mystery and tension.
Graphically it is an old game so i didn't expected much it is in fact pretty ugly but i never play these type of games for the graphics but for the mystery and the horror elements that comes with them and was rather disappointed. Fan of lovecraftian stories, sim games and the cosmic horror genre, i tried this game on PS5.
