Hell is Us

The game scenery and voice acting and animation and even the combat is good and engaging and would normally suck me into the immersion. But... no ability to jump or even vault up[ low walls just makes no sense to me. What's worse, is that there are no maps, mini or otherwise. I HATE maze-like areas in any game, especially if i have no way to map it. I get lost and have no idea where to go. Finally, items... most items have a glow which is easy enough to see, but some items do not glow but barely shimmer, making them easy to overlook, including vital quest items. So... final verdict... a hesitant thumbs down. I want to love this game, i really do... but missing vital staples like jumps and climbs and maps, just kills it for me. This is a no from me.

Bon jeu, mais franchement exigeant. Le titre ne tient absolument pas la main du joueur : pas d'aide sur les soins, pas de marqueur ni d'indication pour les quêtes, il faut tout déduire soi-même. C'est là que le jeu se démarque : la dimension enquête est vraiment réussie et apporte quelque chose de neuf. On avance en recoupant des indices, en lisant l'environnement, et cette sensation de mener sa propre investigation change agréablement de ce qu'on a l'habitude de voir. Dommage que le combat ne suive pas. Le système tourne rapidement en rond et les « boss » ne sont pas plus difficiles que les ennemis classiques, juste bien plus longs à abattre. De simples sacs à PV.

Game is alright. I came into this game with the wrong mindset, while also discovering it's not my cup of tea. I was gifted the game for free by my best friend, and with "Hell is Us" having the tag of souls-like, I was interested enough. The game is much more focused on the aspect of no handholding questing and problem solving than I originally expected. I had no issue with it, but the combat was not all that engaging. I'd say the game is much more interesting for those who like deep-lore, discovering solutions to puzzle and quests all while not being guided through it in anyway. 3/5 for me

Hell is Us — это классический пример того, как амбициозная идея разбивается о бездарную реализацию. Игра, которую позиционируют как «детективную адвенчуру с элементами соулслайка», на деле не тянет ни то, ни другое.

Достойная игрушка! очень атмосферная!

So, Only being 3/4 hours in to this and only on the second location. I already know i am going to have a love hate thing going on with this game. This hands down reminds me of how gaming used to be. No Mini Maps, No quest markers, just you and your little notepad you used to get inside of game cases to write down what you need to know, locations etc. This would have been one of those games when you bought in the store that had its own full walkthrough collectors book. The Combat is fun, though this game is not for those who want amazing combat, this is more about Puzzle solving, exploring and investigating rather than combat. It's a breathe of fresh air, not having 112 quest markers and objectives cluttering everything.

This game is really really good forget all the people complaining about the combat it is fine it is nothing like souls I would say it is easy. The exploration and the puzzles are not for the average player. You have to really think read all the evidence to figure out a puzzle reminds me of when games were hard unlike today.

Great game
