Syndrome
WISHLIST BENEATH – UPCOMING ACTION/HORROR GAME
the GameYou wake up dazed and confused, probably from the effects of cryosleep.
No one can be seen around, but you soon start to find the bodies of your dead crewmen.
The ship is adrift, and whoever – or whatever – killed your crewmates is probably still around.
Syndrome is a sci-fi survival horror game that takes place aboard the “Valkenburg”, an exploration and science ship equipped with the most advanced systems in the Novacore fleet.
You need to find out what happened to your crewmen and do whatever you can to survive this nightmare.
The enemies are powerful and numerous, which means that stealth and evasion are often the best strategy.
You’ll find weapons aboard the ship, but ammo is scarce and should be wisely spent.
FEATURES
● Claustrophobic horror: The action takes place inside a spaceship. There are countless horrors inside, both physical and psychological.
● Fight or hide: There are weapons on the ship, but not enough ammo to take everyone out. Use them wisely.
● Engaging storyline: Nothing is what it seems. Something very bad happened aboard the ship, and it’s up to you to find out what’s really going on.
● Reactive enemies: They’ll follow noises and investigate any disturbances.
● Interactive scenario: There’s plenty of exploration to do inside the ship, and many things to discover.

It's got that trapped feeling with the closed space, a bunch of different gory monsters to fight, and a decent story holding it all together. There are a few jumpscares here and there, combat is alright. Caught a small bug in one monster's movement but nothing game breaking.
Good enough to merit a playthrough, although I feel the game could be a bit shorter, as after a while you're just running through the same corridors to find or fix something in order to advance the story.

Surprisingly good
Believe it or not, It generates enough fear you constantly save, so that shows a good use in atmosphere, the game is obviously built to a budget but by the looks of it a lot of love and care was put into it.
I recommend it for fans of sci-fi suspenseful games.

Fans of Dead Space will feel right at home exploring the corridors of a derelict spaceship. The atmosphere is thick with dread, and the grotesque enemies will have you checking every corner. While the story might not break new ground, it has some cool twists, keeping the narrative open until the end.

This game is really good why it doesn't have more reviews is anyones guess. There's not that many fps's i come back to and keep replaying this is one of them. Its a true Steam gem. Being a big fan of Soma its good to see Camel101's new game Beneath. If you like games like Dead Space give this one a go!

The environment is good, the story is cliche and the combat is average. But overall the game is quite nice, although it has a lot of empty space and walking back and forth. When you get to the end of the game you REALLY know the ship. I would have preferred a smaller and more focused experience, but it's cool nonetheless.

Some things feel a bit rough, some others look good. The environment is oppressive and genuinely scary, but feels a bit empty. Combat is ok, not stellar. The most basic enemies can be outrunned if there's space, while the powerful ones with the bladed arms will most certainly kill you if you try to mess around.
It's not an excellent game, but it's intense and provides a few hours of good scares while you try to figure out what happened in the ship.

It's tense. Seems like a walking simulator at first, but then you find some weapons, and monsters start coming at you. And it goes really fast from hitting slow zombie-like things with a tool, to running away from monsters with blade arms.
The ship feels a bit empty, and it has really long corridors, so be prepared for a lot of walking.
