    Let's face it. It's 100% an indie.

    You start without explanation or context, almost no music and only a few environmental effects, and yes... it has bugs and has fps drops... On the good side, the game looks gorgeous, so far the 1st hour is quite interesting and fun. Also mention that the FPS drops happened me TWICE (1060 GTX at high quality). It's a short game (3-4h) but you should

    It's a short game (3-4h) but you should at least play it twice because finding secrets it's when you can start reading the texts the game presents you (each secret allows the translation of an specific letter) which means you won't have the story and the lore until you have found most of them and then you can replay in order to understand it from the beginning.

    In horror games, the greatest horror should not be that someone forces you to play it. With Inner Chains, it's the only thing you'd be afraid of. [Issue#277]

    The game that works best when you are looking at screenshots. Deep black biomechanical surrealism can draw such incredibly impressive scenes. In all other considerations is the game fails.

    With its fantastic art direction Inner Chains could have been a great walker. Unfortunately what the developers decided to make is a lame, uninspired, awfully boring first-person shooter that has absolutely nothing to offer in terms of gameplay. [08/2017, p.72]
