How it feels

A tense, atmospheric third-person shooter where you navigate dark military labs with deliberate caution and sudden combat.

What players say

Players who enjoy classic Resident Evil will find a similar tense atmosphere here. The ice-based combat is a highlight, but the game suffers from a cluttered story, a lack of a proper final boss, enemies that teleport and respawn, and a limited arsenal of just two guns.
