    This IS NOT the version seen in mainstream review sites. 80% of problems they obsessed over no longer exist. From combat to enemy movement and load times all fixed. This plays like a silent Hill/resident evil but with very unique story and twists on the gameplay. It's an indie title that deserves another look. Just take a look on YouTube video and make sure it's the 1.2 version video. You'll see a game that doesn't resemble the reviews. I've been thru entire campaign twice and spent time in it's great frontier fighters mode which is a take on raid mode from resident evil Revelations or mercenary's . Silver falls:3 down stars was made as a love letter to a bygone era of survival horror. The next update 1.3 is finished and released soon. This patch fixed all remaining glitches. Support indie games and take another look at this diamond in the rough    … Expand

    Although it’s great to see new games released for the 3DS (and with a good implementation of the 3D effect that even Nintendo eventually abandoned), Silver Falls: 3 Down Stars isn’t worth dusting off your old portable. It’s effectively creepy, but it’s also buggy, drab, and a general slog. However, it leaves me with hope that the developers will be able to put it all together in future games.

    There are many more baffling design decisions or ideas hampered by poor execution I could cover, but honestly, this is way too long a review already and I'm only going to get more upset the further I dig. I wish there was some redeeming value to Silver Falls: 3 Down Stars or it ended up in a "so bad it's good" situation, but it's just a bland survival-horror game that's light on scares and heavy on aggravation. When I wrote about it back in 2018, I had hope it would end up as one of the great final games for my beloved Nintendo 3DS. But after a month of struggling to get through it, that hope is dead.
