SOMA2015

4 out of 5 stars

Surprise you're underwater! Amnesia: The Dark Descent was a scary game. It is a great example of how the unknown is far scarier than the known, a prime example being the invisible monster that you can only keep track of by seeing the splashes it made in the water.

Dear Esther2012

4 out of 5 stars

There is a lot to say about Dear Esther, which is quite a feat considering the game only lasts for about one hour and thirty minutes.
