About
You may enjoy this if you like survival horror in a real-world location, with lots of suspense and sudden scares; Not for you if you want strong characters, a deep story, or minimal jump scares, like in Turistas.
Pros: eerie abandoned setting; steady tension; some effective jump scares | Cons: thin story; uneven acting; familiar horror beats
