What players say
I do love this game, but there are a lot of issues I have with it. First off, this game is a great horror game and the atmosphere/music were extremely well done. My issue is both the story and the saving of this game. There should be more saves. You can lose maybe an hour worth of progress if you dont backtrack a lot just to save and that can get very tedius. When it comes to the story, I feel the dev had more to...
This is the type of game where I wish there was more than just Up or Down. The game is decent in the environment and brings back that PS1 era horror gameplay, but the story is kind of weak and trying to find certain things is annoying. The amount of running back and forth puts Silent Hill to shame. I'm going to give it a thumbs up because there aren't many games of the "genre" for us to enjoy, I guess this will have...
It's definitely creepy. I've a lot of nostalgia for the PS2 era horror games and Hollowbody absolutely scratches that itch. Story has me hooked as well, and I really like Mica. For now I can say it's better played with controller vice KBM. Will edit my review when I'm further in.
