Until Dawn™

awesome game with insane replayability with amazing character developpment are paired with an empecable story and elements from the original game

Until Dawn — “It’s light horror,” I said, before destroying a couple’s gaming session On June 1st, my girlfriend and I decided to play Until Dawn. I warned her right away: “Babe, it’s horror, but it’s light horror.” That was probably the biggest lie I’ve ever told. The plan was simple: play for a bit, eat snacks, laugh at the jumpscares, and have a cute couple moment. We had Monster, 2 bags of chips, chocolate, a huge TV in the bedroom, everything dark, the speaker blasting at max volume, and only the light from the TV illuminating two people who still thought they were about to have a cute couple moment. The room looked ready for gaming. But in reality, it was ready to destroy her inner peace. Any tiny noise in the game and she already had her hand over her face, all curled up, peeking through her fingers, as if the monster respected the rule of “if I can’t see you, you can’t scare me.” With every jumpscare, she jumped off the bed. I looked at her and thought: “Calm down, babe, nothing even happened yet.” But for her, everything had already happened. The game loaded the main menu and she was already halfway through a trauma. At first, honestly, I thought the game was kind of dry. The choices felt bland, the interaction was low, and I was sitting there thinking: “So I bought a game to walk slowly, choose dry dialogue options, and watch teenagers make terrible decisions?” But the real experience wasn’t in the game. It was sitting next to me. We reached Chapter 3. And then it happened. The animal came out of the closet. At that moment, I saw a person abandon the war. She jumped, got completely scared, turned to the other side of the bed, curled up entirely, and stayed there offended, like: “Don’t talk to me. I trusted you. You said this was light horror.” I still tried to encourage her. I still tried to say it wasn’t that bad. I still tried to save our couple gameplay. But there was nothing left to save. Her body was still on the bed, but her soul had already gone to ask for a refund. From that point on, she stayed turned to the other side, completely curled up, clearly offended at the game, at me, at the closet, at the animal, and probably at the entire video game industry. So I continued alone. Not because I was brave. But because someone had to honor the Monster, the chips, the chocolate, and the money spent. And somehow, from Chapter 4 onward, the game actually started getting good. The story picked up, the horror started hitting better, and I finally stopped feeling like I was playing a dry-choice walking simulator with snow. I recommend Until Dawn. Not just for the game, but for the full experience. Is it horror? Yes. Is it fun? After Chapter 4, yes. Is it good to play as a couple? Yes, if you want to find out in which chapter your girlfriend abandons the mission and turns into a scared little croquette in the corner of the bed.

gud

Until Dawn? More like "Until the Game Crashes"... smh. also weapon wont fire so can't progress. Unplayable

It's good at first. But once you get to a certain point there's a glitch where Emily get's stuck on a ladder in the mineshaft. You can't move up or down and you can't get off of it. Would not recommend spending 60$ on this game if you're on pc.

I love the game 10/10. Good story and can make choices that will impact your game!!!!!

I'll probably give it a little more time, but so far, I can't say I'm impressed. I don't like the keyboard controls (I find them confusing at times, for example when I have to quickly press a button). I also find odd the way the characters move. Storywise, the plot is somewhat interesting, but some of the characters are poorly written in my opinion. The pace feels slow for a game like this. I feel like all I do is walk around and then I suddenly have to press one key or the other and my dexterity or lack therof determines who lives or dies. Maybe it is better if played on PS or with a controller, but really it's just probably not the right type of game for me. I was hoping it would be something closer to silent hill or resident evil. On the bright side, it runs perfectly smooth so far on my PC (it's a high-end gaming PC though). I've also not noticed any significant bugs, so for those that do enjoy this type of game, that is a plus.
