What players say

Bought the whole Dread x Collection bundle (1-5) and it was awesome! It cost like 10 bucks and i got 34 hours of gameplay from them, so definetly the money's worth.

But definetly recommended, and hope to see Dread x...

Also We Never Left was pretty good and it was funny when I looked up the voice actor of Michael for it to be Jonah Scott, the voice actor for Aiden from Dying Light...
