What players say
Lake Haven Chrysalis was an awesome experience from start to finish. If your a fan of the Silent Hill movies or games or classic Resident Evil games , you'll definitely love this. The game has that same tense, creepy atmosphere where your constantly on edge, solving puzzle's, and trying to survive 10/10.
