Until Dawn

Until Dawn succeeds at something many horror games fail to do. It makes you have a real fear for the characters in your game. Each character feels very real and they each have distinct personalities. The gameplay is a nice balance between story building and intense action. There are a lot of jumpscares in the game but the real fear comes from the tension that builds between scenes. The game has some jaw dropping graphics from the beautiful character's faces to the diverse settings. The game's choice system is one of the best parts. The choices you make have real consequences which keeps the pressure high and makes for more intense gameplay. Quick time events are used in a smart way to make the action scenes very difficult and stressful. Totems can be collected around the map that give you glimpses into the future to warn you about a death or give you guidance on important decisions. Your sessions with Dr. Hill feels very eerie and makes the game scarier for everyone. The game uses classic horror tropes beautifully to please the us awesome horror fans. The voice acting feels believable and helps you care about your fragile friends. This game is not going to be for everyone, but if you are a horror fan and love a good story this is one of the best out there.

This game has a very simple tone from the outset, it progresses nicely as a horror should through a few jump scares and quirky interactions between the characters, as you could hope for. It then proceeds to reveal a whole new story all together. This game is a masterpiece and for a British studio to hit the nail on the head, and almost perfect an American set horror game is incredible. The team at supermassive should be proud of themselves.

Everytime you think you have this games story roped in, it unties itself and leaves you desperate to continue your journey. The twists and turns in this game make it very unique, like the story. The characters have their own unique personalities but the versatility of each one of them, coupled with outstanding performances by an extremely talented cast just reflects how good this game is. The way this game makes you feel about each character is rivalled only by that of a rock star game (Red dead 2 for example). The scenary and environment are great even its not as consistent as you'd like, but it does its job in always making you feel like there is something behind you or someone watching you.

I would give this game 95/100 as I don't feel it gets the credit it deserves. If your looking for an outstanding experience for the PlayStation, then you will definitely find one here. Thank you supermassive games, I will now always look forward to your next games.

Some of these cinematic games get a lot of flack, and for good reason, but this is definitely an exception. This game BLEW me away. All the different endings and possibilities are what set this apart. The story is amazing and every decision you make feels like it matters -- in fact, you can go back and see just how much it DOES matter on each additional playthrough!

This game is amazing. Its cult status guarantees it to become a collector's item one day. Get it while you still can!

One of best exclusives on the PS4 if you're a fan of interactive stories / walking sims.

The story, gameplay and acting has some minor flaws at times, but overall it's a fantastic experience. You feel yourself wanting these stupid teens die all whilst hoping they make it out alive. A great game with loads of replay value.

The game animations are a bit quirky at times but for a 2015 release, it still looks stunning in 2021.

I literally just finished playing and logged on here because this game seriously needs all the recognition it deserves! I bought the game at 4pm, sat down and didn't get up until almost 2am. Yeah. Not even a bathroom break. I seriously forgot to eat or do anything because this game just sucks you into its world. And man did it scare the pants off me! This game scared me more than an actual horror film, believe me it'll make you jump a few times, or at least cuss under your breath. I'm super picky with games because they need to look a certain way (i.e Beyond Two Souls; The Last of Us) types. Graphics were amazing! Highly recommended!
