I’m trying not to judge MIMESIS too harshly. The game is, after all, still in Early Access, and I’m sure has a wealth of content to come as well as improvements on its core mechanics. However, as it currently stands, I just did not find much in the game to appeal to me nor set it apart from others in the genre. The game’s horror does not really work thanks to its cartoony appearance and lackluster death screen, the gameplay does not do enough to set itself apart from others in the genre, and the core mechanic, the mimic, is a sort of gimmicky mechanic that loses its tension as soon as you catch on to it. What is more, the game has nothing to offer a solo player, but if you have a small group of friends, the price of entry is not terrible and the game might have a lot more to offer further on in its development cycle.
