Just got around to playing it after Steam Sale, and it's a fun little indie game. It takes a mix of Silent Hill exploration mechanics and the fight-or-flight gameplay, and throws it into a Resident Evil 2-type urban monster apocalypse setting. There are also some minor survival mechanics like food and sleep, but it's not terribly pronounced. For a 2d game, it's also pretty damned creepy (especially with headphones on).

The gameplay for me so far has been following clues left behind by people while I was out collecting important survival tools like a handgun, can opener, scissors, etc. The story is slowly building up, and has me curious to try to crack it open as much as possible. The whole thing has a surreal feel, and I don't really know if my character is either hallucinating things, or there's a bigger power trying to mess with him.

If you dig survival horror games that are about 65% survival and 35% horror, then it's a fun game that's worth a shot.

So this game is working for me like other survival horror games. I work up the courage to play it, have one long-ass addiction session, then become too nervous to play again. It's a shame, because the story so far is great. It doesn't give away too much, but it's also not pretentiously mysterious. It's like getting a great-looking burger and fries, but only being able to take one small bite at a time.

I seriously am surprised at how scary a 2d game can be. The first monsters you meet can't see you, but they're sensitive to your flashlight. After long sessions without enemies, I tend to get careless and leave my flashlight on, and the second I enter an apartment or something, I hear one of them roar and chase after me. It scares the hell out of me sometimes.
