Review

The main character of this dark story is a man named Andrew. He cannot be called a fighter or a brave man, but this does not prevent him from going to a secluded island where his daughter was last seen alive. Arriving on the island, the protagonist discovers that it is practically abandoned, and the remaining locals behave very strangely.

Exploring this world, the protagonist eventually begins to suffer from hallucinations and obsessive images. Then he even meets strange creatures that look like marine inhabitants with anthropomorphic features. They behave aggressively and intend to kill the main character at the first meeting.

It is required to note:

1. The virtual world is completely open, which makes it possible for the protagonist to explore it without any restrictions.

3. Beautiful photorealistic graphics.
4. The gamer has the opportunity to fight monsters, but he can easily die from a couple of blows, and it's not so easy to defeat opponents if there are no firearms.
5. The ability to interact with objects of the surrounding world – various mechanisms, books, documents, notes and mechanisms.
6. The emphasis is not on the combat system, but on the study of the environment, which is as close as possible to the atmosphere of the Lovecraft universe.
