Obscure - Anthology (2005-2007) PC | RePack by R.G.Mechanics

The ObsCure series of games was released by the French company Hydravision. And it includes two parts: ObsCure and ObsCure 2 Authoritative gaming publications have named it nothing else than "French horror in the American manner". The weak graphics and incomprehensible control system are more than compensated for by the unique atmosphere and stunning musical accompaniment.

Plot

In the first part, we play for high school students somewhere in the USA. The prestigious school is surrounded by mysterious stories about missing students who no one has ever seen again. The main character Kenny Matthews by the will of fate finds a secret laboratory, which is hidden in the basement of an abandoned house, where the director of the educational institution conducts inhuman experiments. But failing to get out becomes a hostage. And at this time, his sister is upstairs, along with Kenny's girlfriend, trying to find him and solve the mystery of the disappeared students.

The ending of the game also depends on this, there are 2 different finals in total.  Here is a short list of the skills of some heroes:

1. Kenny Matthews is an athlete, has increased strength and resilience. He can run super fast, but for short distances.
2. Shannon Matthews is the main character's sister. Performs the role of a medic, as he uses a first aid kit more efficiently by 25%, and also suggests ways to solve problems.
3. Josh Carter is a journalist, highlights all the useful objects around.

And this is far from a complete list, in addition to skills, they absolutely all handle weapons perfectly, the arsenal of which was quite extensive in the first part, and in ObsCure 2 it became even more. The excellent plot of the first part, unfortunately, did not get a new twist in the second, which l
