    Thoughts-
    Ultimately, The Quarry isn’t trying to do anything new. On the contrary, it feels like a return to its roots for the studio. Leaving behind the experimental storytelling that Supermassive focused on during its Dark Pictures Anthology, The Quarry focuses on a smaller story, but one that ends up feeling more engaging and human, thanks in no small part to phenomenal acting and gorgeous visuals. While its gameplay isn’t going to set the world on fire, it does its job in adding the right amount of tension and giving just the right level of interactivity for even non-gamers to have a good time. The Quarry is an all-round good time for anyone that loves a good horror romp, especially for fans of classic horror.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off i find it funny that people are giving it bad scores for lack of gameplay. Like you know its a Interactive movie game right? That's kind of the point just like Until Dawn and Detroit become human and every other game like this.

    Lets start with the positives.

    The voice acting and Casting is 10/10 easily,its so well so as per usual from supermassive,and i love the celebrities they got to be in the game..The atmosphere of the game is also one of the highlights of the game,Its dark and creepy but sometimes its almost too dark so that could be seen as a bad thing.The interaction between the characters is outstanding, it isn't cringe or bad like i see a lot of people saying,you really start to see the relationships between characters early on and it doesnt really let up.The plot honestly its very predictable but its a good story.Its nothing groundbreaking but its engaging enough to keep you interested and you want to play more of it after you finish.The gameplay is fine because its a cinematic game so most of the gameplay involved exploring and QTE events instead of actual combat.And of course as with these games I love that the smallest mistake can get one of your characters killed or give them hopes of survival. The replayability is extremely high as well,the game is built for multiple playthroughs so keep that in mind.

    The cons now while few,they are there.

    The elephant in the room first. The Motion capture they did is very strange. Sometimes its amazing and othertimes it just looks weird like when a character looks down it looks like their eyes are closed. Some characters imo didnt have a big enough role like Chris for example and basically the entire family other than Travis. I feel like some of the playable characters didnt get enough screen time while others got too much,its a crime that you only got to play kaitlyn like twice for any sort of extended time. There are some glitches of course,a pretty major one involving kaitlyn where you shoot your shotgun and a werewolf kills you because the game didn't recognize you shot the gun which is a minor detail because you can revive her anyways.Other than that the only real negatives left is a semi predictable and unoriginal story and the length of the game is short,like you can beat it in 7 hours. But the game is meant for 4 playthroughs at least so its completely fine.

    Final Verdict: Its a fantastic well done game that you will love if you're a fan of games like Until Dawn or Detroit Become Human. This isnt a gameplay heavy shooter like people seem to think it is,Its 100% worth the money imo.

    The game itself is great. The bad part is the publisher being the greedy 2k. There is a way to remove the 2k launcher on steam forums which will increase your performance drastically.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Quarry was my introduction into the Horror gaming Genre. I was delighted by the original take on werewolves the writers decided to take. The characters were impactful, and I really felt for them when they died. While I would love to give this game a perfect score, every game has its flaws. Surprisingly I only have minor issues with the game. One of my issues involves the “don’t breathe” QTEs throughout the game. They were rather easy and instead of making me nervous, I actively enjoyed these segments because all I had to do was hold the action button down until it was all clear. This really took away from the tension in my opinion. It is possible that this could be fixed in the settings, however I still can’t give a perfect score due to my other issue with the game. Warning: this next section of my review contains a spoiler. Throughout the game there were moments where I felt like characters who died ought to have survived. Many of these instances are forgivable as the horror genre has to do this at times to continue a story (just something you have to learn to accept). At one point however, Depending on your previous choices, Max gets cured from being a werewolf, after which you reach a pier and are given the choice to stay on the island or leave. Upon choosing to leave, max reaches the adjacent land pier and is then immediately killed by another werewolf. Now this wouldn’t be a problem normally, however the werewolves in this game hate water. So for me it was kind of poorly written that Max didn’t even attempt to fall back in the water. This is only one of a few moments I was disappointed by the “death logic”

    In summary this game was well worth the money and I strongly recommend anyone who’s interested to play this game for themselves.    … Expand

    Spiel hat eine Story welche nicht Weltklasse ist aber gut erzählt und an gewissen stellen schon an until dawn erinnert.
    Da es sich um einen teenieslasher handelt werden natürlich auch die Charaktere typisch für das genre dargestellt. Die Grafik ist eine 11 von 10 auch wenn sie in manchen Szenen besser und in anderen dann wieder schlechter wirkt, so war es nie so dass ich die Grafik in jeglicher Art bemängeln könnte.
    Klar hat auch das spiel seine schwächen,
    ich selbst bin von dem Problem zwar nicht betroffen aber ich habe mehrfach gelesen, dass es keinen widescreen unterstützt. Sollte für leute mit einem entsprechenden Monitor klar sein vor dem Kauf.
    Aufgrund der Grafik sollte auch der Pc eine entsprechende Hardware haben. Falls man keinen Pc hat sollte man mindestens eine Konsole der neueren Generation besitzen da es auf der old gen wie ein Minecraftclon aussiehst lol.
    Schade meiner Meinung nach ist auch dass es im Vergleich zu until dawn oder den dark pictures teilen sehr einfach ist, die Qte‘s (quick time events) sind auf den stick verschoben worden wo man nur nach oben unten rechts und links drücken muss. Auch die „Atem Sequenzen“ welche in until dawn durch das stillhalten des Controllers am besten gelöst sind und auch in der dark pictures reihe duch das im richtigen takt A drücken noch relativ spannend geregelt ist wird in the Quarry durch das halten des A Knopfes so einfach dass man quasi nicht sterben kann.
    Zum Schluss noch zu meiner Meinung nach dem größten Kritikpunkt von the Quarry, dem Preis.
    Klar the Quarry ist ein bisschen länger als die Dark pictures reihe aber nicht den doppelten preis Wert, aber im sale ein muss für jeden der solche spiele mag!    … Expand

And it is truly a scary game, which is exactly what i was looking for. I had a great time playing it and the game really invites you to play it again, even more so than Until Dawn. 10/10

    The perfect successor to Until Dawn. While I wish it was a little more interactive in certain points I love how they really doubled down on choice and branching paths of the narrative. The acting, narrative weight, cinematography are all some of the best in gaming. Already going to dive in for another playthrough!

    I’m a die hard until dawn fan so I have judged all their other games since he dry harshly. Yet, I have found that quarry has lived up to expectations and far surpassed them. I think this rivals until dawn for its spot as my favorite game. I think the quarry has a straight forward story with great characters and lots of branching paths.

    The Quarry is a good piece of cinematography and storytelling, lost in its medium of choice. The gameplay elements aren't particularly fun, nor worthwhile replaying. The cutscenes are good the first time around, but are certainly get a bit grating the longer the game goes on. Standout performances from the actors certainly carry The Quarry, and it is worthwhile playing through the story at least once, but the second time around feels too much of a chore. The Quarry is the definition of a weekend rental.

    The Quarry is a retread of the familiar genre tropes and Supermassive's own debut game, Until Dawn, but the quality bar is somehow lower than 7 years ago. Still, it’s entertaining enough for one playthrough if you like ”QTE movies”.

    As I mentioned earlier it’s hard to review games like The Quarry without spoiling the story, but I hope I’ve been able to whet your appetite enough with what could easily be Supermassives best entry to date. With the beautifully crafted scenery, soundtrack and great cast it’s certainly one I’ll be playing again and again once I get my Series X version!
