X-Men Under Siege is a 1994 board game designed by Richard Borg. All X-Men must return to the mansion at once!” “While the X-Men were away on a secret mission, Xavier’s Mansion was invaded by a host of Evil Mutants. And of course, I love the tidbits of Indonesian black magic and spirits that you see scattered about. There are some genuinely creepy moments mid-way through the game. I personally find high schools and hospitals creepy, and you get to explore both in a Silent Hill-esque style. I don’t get cool lore, character development, or the opportunity to explore Linda’s ample trauma, or even help her heal from it.īut there are some good aspects. But they don’t really contribute to anything. And as a person who loves side quests, I was super excited about it. And the way she swings an axe is genuinely pathetic.īeyond that, there are a lot of side quests. Other boss fights feel so easy as to be anticlimactic. Shots that feel like they should hit sometimes don’t. I’ve complained about camera-based battle systems in my Fatal Frame gameplay reviews but DreadOut 2 is the absolute pinnacle of bad battle systems.
The gameplay is also, unfortunately, not great. Even playing both, DreadOut 1 and the standalone game Keepers of Dark, this game still barely makes sense. We’ve gotten so many great horror indie games that look amazing in the past year that it’s hard to excuse the roughness, especially for a remastered game.īut the true deep sin of DreadOut 2 is that its story doesn’t make any sense without having played the previous installment, even with the cinematic at the start. The models can still be awkward, the environment borders on drab and forgettable. It doesn’t look like it was made for next gen consoles. We censor the word d*ngus once.Every horror palette is a variety of browns, greys, and maybe a splash of red. Most family friendly zombie apocalypse game on the market! Any gore explosion is in a cute style.Get your characters strong enough to throw large sofas. Get different options and results based on the traits of your party members. Make tough choices in Interactive Fiction events.Find special and rare events, weapons, and characters with strange abilities.Have them show up at random to get eaten!
