Get Even

Not exactly a standout FPS, but as a psychological thriller built around superb sound design, it works surprisingly well.

Resident Evil 7 + Quantum Break + Outlast = Get Even
The game wasn't scary, but in some places I got the vibe of RE and Outlast, some of the designs reminded me of Quantum Break.
The gameplay was unique and new to me. The graphics are still great.

Get Even is a psychological horror experience that strongly reminded me of the movie called Session 9, particularly in its unsettling atmosphere and slow burning sense of unease. Fans of psychological horror will likely find a lot to appreciate here, even if the game doesn’t fully land for everyone.

The opening hours are especially strong, establishing a tense and immersive atmosphere while effectively blending psychological horror with subtle sci-fi elements. One of the game’s strengths is its ability to keep the player disoriented, constantly questioning what is happening and pushing forward in search of answers. However, as the game progresses, the pacing begins to falter. Toward the final stretch, I personally found the experience less engaging, with a growing sense of wanting the story to conclude rather than unfold further. This may come down to personal taste, but the late-game momentum doesn’t quite match the strength of its introduction.

That said, for a title developed by an indie studio, Get Even is an impressive and ambitious project. While it may not appeal to everyone, it offers a thoughtful and atmospheric take on psychological horror that is worth considering for fans of the genre.

This is part walking simulator, part not-so-great shooter.

What the game excels at is its story that's some crazy, sometimes convoluted dive through memories that's basically if Shakespeare wrote Inception, searching for answers so folks can "get even."

The gameplay isn't all that great, but I was always looking forward to finding out what happens next, and the music is great at building up the atmosphere and tone of each scene. Voice acting is wonderful as well.

And you just might be left saying "the party, the party" over and over.

Not a great game, but certainly enjoyable.

Love the twists and turns of the storyline. Worth it to get the end and the reveal.

second playthrough of this game and I'm still not sure if I actually enjoyed the experience or not. once again wishing i could rate my Steam reviews out of 5 stars vs. binary Yes/No option but here we go.
pros:
-almost 10yrs old game but still looks surprisingly modern from a visual standpoint
-runs very smoothly for the most part
-meticulously crafted & executed story that really does take the whole game to unfold
-beautiful soundtrack (except for that gratuitously annoying pop song)
-great voice acting imo
cons:
-it's a well-crafted story but im genuinely unsure if i find it to be a very interesting one
-extremely annoying playthrough if you're going for achievements, there's a lot of back & forth between memories hoping that you collected all the right stuff only to find out you need to go back in once again to finish things up. tried to go for the second ending achievement but when it didn't click i just simply gave up out of exhaustion
-game rewards you with fancy guns for finding hidden secrets but still emphasizes stealth all throughout so these xtra goodies often feel like meaningless trophy prizes to sit in their little glass cases
-shuffling between apps on the phone is not always intuitive and not being able to keep the backlight on while you do so makes navigation in dark areas very annoying
-lots and lots and lots of dialogue scenes to sit through. first time around it feels mostly engaging but anything after that (especially when going for an achievement run) is just obnoxious because you can't skip through the majority of it.
-infrequently (but often enough to become a pattern) i would hit game bugs that led to full-on crashes, especially when loading between levels
overall it's a Fine game with a sort of intriguing storyline, can't in good faith give a fully negative review here but even on my first playthrough I eventually would hit a point where continuing the game felt more like a chore than something i was genuinely excited about. would definitely advise waiting until it goes on sale, and strap in because there's a fair amount of game to get through start-to-finish.

An unforgettable story filled with mystery and intrigue. Not the best combat or shooting but cool camera gun and phone to track enemies/objectives and keep things interesting. Natural ambience with the clock speeding up is brilliantly done and I am at the point where I'm going back for the forth time to try and go for all evidence and all achievements. This game moved me and the ending caught me off guard in the best of ways. THE PARTY/10
