What players say

Players consistently call this the best entry in the Dark Pictures Anthology, praising the shift to real monsters instead of hallucinations and the strong cast, especially Salim. The story is engaging with meaningful choices and good replay value, but some find the camera frustrating and the start a bit slow.
