How it feels

A clunky, gory retro-style survival horror with a deadpan dark comedy tone and bad dubbing.

What players say

Players say this sequel to Prototype Mansion is bigger, funnier, and more polished than its predecessor, blending PS1-era fixed-camera survival horror with third-person sections. Highlights include fuse-based puzzles that turn lights on to block enemy spawns, a metacontextual ending twist, and an absurd sense of humor. The difficulty is low but enemy count can feel high.
