Sep 10, 2024Devil's Hideout still has a compelling atmosphere that makes me overlook its flaws. In its most evocative moments, it reminded me of a Stephen King story, and I'm not just referring to the Pennywise cameo. A city that's lost all of its wholesome Americana and fallen to evil is simply something that King would write about, though Devil's Hideout would probably be one of those '80s King paperbacks where he was coked up and in need of a better editor. Like Kathy Rain, another point and click that had a lot of random horror stuff happening behind the scenes, I feel like Devil's Hideout could benefit from a director's cut at a later date to help flesh out the bits I liked and hammer down the parts I didn't. There's tremendous potential at play in the alleyways of this urban hell, in other words, and even if it was imperfect, I finished Devil's Hideout wanting more - which is not something I've ever desired from an abandoned American city ever before.
