About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a spooky, gory video game adaptation with claustrophobic dread and puzzle-like beats; Not for you if you need clear storytelling, slow-burn buildup, or minimal jump scares, like in Iron Lung.
Pros: creepy mortuary setting; gory practical effects; strong lead performance | Cons: confusing lore delivery; overused jump scares; uneven pacing and flashbacks
