Uriel’s Chasm 3: Gelshock

If you come from that era, when you would buy nes games thinking is the lastest technology but for real you only got them extremelly cheap because non ps2 consoles died decades ago witouth even knowing about ps2 existance. Then this is that game you left in the bottom of the shoe box because you don't know wtf is it about or how to play it. Eventually one day you don't go to work/school because the entire planet is dying from some laboratory created chinese bio weapon that they forgot to lock down properly. Tha's when you realized you tired of playing the good and fun games and want to torture yourself playing some bizarre ♥♥♥♥ you forgot you had. Well this is the game in the bottom of that shoe box. I really hated the combat system and literally everything, but at the same time "played" to figure wtf was the dev thinking when making this whole mess. I still don't know wtf was going on in the story. But it bring those memories back where you played stuff nobody heard about and you did your best effort to figure how the ♥♥♥♥ you progress in the game, on those times where mom and dad won't let you use internet because there was that myth that you can only use internet 30 minutes before going bed or the phone bill would be like x 5 times bigger so you couldn't find any guide. I guess we have completed the triforce.

The sequel to the sequel to the worst game on Steam, EVER!!!!!!!1, if reviews are to be believed, but I haven't actually played the other Uriel's Chasm games, nor any other games by Rail Slave. I like Gelshock. It's short and strange, and has the same feeling as a horror short story, a vignette of a frightening world rather than a complete narrative set within it. I'm not too sure what to think about the gameplay. It's clunky and unconventional in ways that feel too intentional to just be a lack of development skill or polish, but not obviously relevant to the narrative either. Experimental for the sake of being experimental, perhaps?

Yet again. I can't with this series. It might be the best one, but it still lackluster.

One of rail slave's most stylish games, I love the extraneous HUDs and what I remember of the story. Like most rail slave games it is short and highly experimental with strange mechanics. Raw.

Mám v živé paměti, když jsem poprvé hrál Uriel’s Chasm hru. Tehdy jsem ji dostal z nějakého giveawaye a po zapnutí jsem se nestačil divit. Trvalo mi hodně dlouho, než jsem začal mít rád hry od Rail Slave a než jsem je alespoň částečně pochopil. A teď jsem zde - dohrál jsem třetí Uriel’s Chasm a je to rozporuplný zážitek, ostatně jak jsem čekal. Jinak to totiž s tímhle osobitým stylem her ani nemůže být. Pravdou je, že tyto "hry" jsou spíše jakousi záhadnou kombinací sociálního experimentu a abstraktního umění, převedené do světa jedniček a nul.
