    A Project Zero-like experience with poor visuals and animations, but good puzzle design and great atmosphere.

    The developers split DreadOut into two parts, and the first half is frustratingly short. It will take you 2-3 hours tops, and that’s only because the game sometimes forgets to tell you when an interactive object is nearby, forcing you to run in circles looking for it.

    The first act of DreadOut shows all the potential of the full game, still in development. The atmosphere is thick and scary and wherever you go, something happens. It takes only three to four hours to beat the game, but with so many different ghosts to fend off, it's a trip that's worth your time.

    If DreadOut's glimmers of potential are enough to push you past the mountains of frustration and poor design, don't expect a lot of reward for your struggles. The game ends with a limp cliffhanger, no narrative closure and an unenthused "To Be Continued" hanging over the credits.

    Digital happiness push all the right buttons with a game that will make you think and possibly even be a little scared.

But so far I can say, that the story is not thaaat good and the graphics aren't good either. But the maingoal of a game like this is "to scare the **** out of me". And this goal was reached.
