How it feels
A tense, atmospheric survival horror with puzzle solving and combat against zombie-like creatures, offering a cinematic detective story with fixed or over-the-shoulder camera options.

What players say
Players say Connection: The Nightmare Within is a decent but unmemorable retro survival horror game, comparable to Hollowbody. The puzzles are good, but the combat is clunky and the voice acting is cheesy. It is short, around four hours, and has difficult boss fights.
