It's definitely something for mature gamers to play with the lights off and speakers cranked. Though it's not perfect, those who love survival horror games will be happy to know that The Evil Within was worth the wait the genre is alive and well in this gory offering from Mikami-san. Traveling to Tuscany to claim his inheritance, Marcus discovers that his true legacy is. The high-resolution graphics, smart lighting techniques, and creepy atmosphere nicely add to the fright, even if many of the levels are linear in design.

Fans of survival horror will appreciate this game's challenging scenarios, such as being chased by someone who wants to trap you in a cage, hiding in a locker as someone tears apart a room with a chainsaw, or sneaking past a butcher chopping up body parts. I’m just going to leave that there and let you finish my final thoughts on your own.Despite a few random issues - some long load times, a lead character with no personality whatsoever, and lip-syncing that doesn't match and breaks the suspension of disbelief (probably because the game was ported from the Japanese version, called Psycho Break) - The Evil Within is a chilling, thrilling adventure. As if the mind-shatteringly awful ending wasn’t bad enough, the final achievement is titled “See the names of Gods.” This is awarded for seeing the credits. But it fades away, and here is when all begins. After the death of his mother and the arrest of his father for it, Mark decides to contact her using the Spiritual board.
Eric Roberts is a comic book villain who uses a magic potion to cause people. 4.9 Generally unfavorable reviews based on 8 Ratings Your Score 0 Summary: Evil Inside is a first-person psychological horror game.

Evil inside reviews movie#
I don’t understand people who watch a horror movie, laugh at it the whole time, and then talk about how the movie just wasn’t scary.
Could you please elaborate? There’s blood in the hallway, she’s standing in this one spot in the house at some point - why? Aside from the awful voice acting of the protagonist, we don’t get much else. Sadly, that’s likely because the developers did not create anything original with Evil Inside.ĭid I enjoy being scared? Yeah, I did. Unfortunately, most of the scares feel completely random not just because they’re jump scares, but because there’s no story thread. Angry, dead woman is angry because she’s dead. I get it. I felt fear, I just wish it was for more intelligent reasons besides sudden loud noises and randomly appearing people. To be fair, Evil Inside absolutely establishes a horrifying mood rooted in cheap jump scares, unsettling music and sounds, and adequate use of lighting. Akin to downing one Pixy Stix after another, Evil Inside’s reliance on jump scares is beyond lazy, but to say I wasn’t uneasy, had goosebumps, and felt my heart rate rise would be a lie. The scariest thing about this hallway? More gameplay. I’m assuming it’s because she died in a well.Īside from brazen similarities in the house’s architectural design to its inspiration, P.T., Evil Inside forces players to go to one end of the hallway after solving a “puzzle” and then enter the same hallway again. Brilliant! I wish I had thought of it. For the most part a walking simulator, Evil Inside occasionally requires players to retrace their steps five times until they find a clickable in the environment to trigger a variable and open the door to the basement. Repeat this a bunch of times, and enjoy the shocking ending after one hour of game time. is now dead. Dead like a woman thrown into a well. Because if we can’t take advantage of people’s emotions and inability to move on, then what’s the point in even having a first-world economy?Įvil Inside is what’s on the tin: You’re stuck in a house because your mom is dead and really, really mad. Like, to the point where she can only stand to be in your face for a quarter of a second, scream really loudly, and then disappear again. Evil Inside has received a bit of marketing leaning heavily into the still hopeless P.T.craze. Any cursory interest I still had in P.T. Three things are certain in life: death, taxes, and the fact that skinny women in nightgowns with long black hair are terrifying.
