Narcosis

great game and story just remember you are in a big suit at the bottom of the ocean and you should understand why ur slow and clunky.

★★★✯☆
Narcosis is a different type of Horror game, as opposed to running away from something trying to kill you the horror lies more in the fact that your on the sea flour and the systems related to that. Your character has a few hallucinations throughout the game and you never know if something is actually happening or is in the characters head. It makes for a really nice and atmospheric experience without having to rely on a big threat chasing you down.
If you like atmospheric horror then I would definitely recommend this game. Over all the game felt a lot more tense than scary, as you always need to be sure you won’t run out of oxygen or accidentally walk into or over something that will kill you.
I don’t want to spoil anything about the game so I’m not going to go into more detail. So the cliff notes are as follows: It’s a tense horror game without immediate threats hunting you down, no real combat, you need to always focus on your surroundings while keeping your eye on your oxygen, and the gameplay itself is a bit slow as your walking in a big clunky diving suit. If your like tense horror game then I would definitely recommend Narcosis.
I rate Narcosis 3.5/5

Short but really good horror walking sim game, the only downside I can think of might be the tank controls, (A and D to turn) but in my opinion this adds to the game
There is some light combat and some jumpscares but most of the scares come from the environment itself
I Narcosised.

This is a short, neat little walking sim type of game, where the focus is the story, and the horrors and mystery of it. I enjoyed the way the story unravelled, it felt like watching Wandavision in that as you get more info you start making different theories about what is really happening, and just one tid-bit can completely change the direction your theories go. The gameplay is very light though, so if walking sims aren't palatable for you then this ain't it for you.

Solid narrative game, a few issues with collision but overall if you want to play something about slowly dying in a claustrophobic dive-suit at the bottom of the sea, this is a good pick.

Decent game, the controls are light(few) so you should not make many button mistakes if you tend to hop from title to title a lot.
Music and location makes for a very foreboding experience, in one location/chapter for me especially, not scary as such but one area you have a couple of moments in the wide open depths surrounding you, no cover for a few seconds just darkness around all sides with only the sea floor with you, not a place you want to stay too long especially if you run out of flares, the game should of had more of these moments of terror of the depths, in my opinion.
I got the feeling it was more a showing of the characters mind breaking down in a cheap startling way that was already a bit stale in films years before this game, jump startling aside, the story carries itself pretty well most of the way through, twist at the end was OK but also leaves everything leading up to that a bit meh, maybe that's just me.
I don't like the checkpoint system, chapters are quite short but some areas become tedious fast multiple times from the start, thankfully you only have to collect ids and collectable things once, the game remembers even when you die! something i found out later in the game my play time is on one and a half
runs through the game as i got lost in some areas so not as short for me as it might and has been for others.

Only minor issues, but chapter 8 at first was not showing up for me until I went through the previous chapter and 8 again, and once I experienced falling through the game world while going through a normal passable space/door.

Decent Game.

This is a genuinely fantastic game that I enjoyed every second of playing. I just finished my second play through after finishing it the first time years ago and it still holds up. This game does a fantastic job of balancing interesting game play mechanics with a grounded and gritty story in a way that many horror games struggle to do and does such an excellent job in immersing the player in its world and atmosphere. Rarely ever do I see a game that is really quite like this, I cannot recommend this game enough
