    Add to that some late-game plot twists, several path-altering choices, a wide variety of obstacles to overcome, multiple endings to discover, and a wealth of small touches (like your character's clothing deteriorating with each narrow escape) and you've got a progressively energetic game set in a fantastic locale: one step beyond everyday life.

    The best way to describe Disaster Report is "Silent Hill without the monsters."

    A much-needed change of ammo in the way-overused gun barrel of 'survival horror.'

    The brains over brawns gameplay make Disaster Report a fun and unique title that'll keep you hooked from start to finish.
  6. Game Over Online
    78
    Despite its blemished presentation and short-lived overall game time, Disaster Report manages to stay entertaining on a by-the-moment tension-inducing level, and without the benefit of gratuitous violence or paranormal gimmicks to boot.
  7. GameSpy

    The game's events are portrayed with such stark realism that sometimes after playing I almost felt like I had experienced the events alongside the characters.

    What it will do is make you use your brain in order to survive and escape from the wrecked and sinking city. For that, Disaster Report gets a thumbs up!

    Long on innovation, the game is unfortunately quite short in playing time. [7 Mar 2003, p.79]

    This is a game full of charm and it's place like nothing. I've tried before which is why this is a very consuming game to play.

    It took me 4 hours and 20 minutes and I was in to change all the way through so please play it.    … Full Review »

AUn juego excelente que se desarrolla en un mundo arrasado por inundaciones, donde nuestro mayor enemigo es el clima y la naturaleza. A diferencia de juegos donde nos atacan zombies o tenemos arsenales de armas para acabar con nuestros enemigos, tendremos que usar nuestro ingenio para avanzar mientras contemplamos un mundo devastado en ruinas, donde solo unos pocos supervivientes nos acompañara en este breve trayecto que en muchos aspectos puede recordar a "The Last of Us" por tener que sobrevivir con escasos recursos. Un juego diferente que no tiene porque gustar a todo tipo de públicos, pero que refleja uno de los fenómenos naturales que más aterra en Japon. Todavía pendiente de jugar su secuela que parece superar todo lo establecido en el original. No es un juego perfecto, pero no tiene desperdicio alguno.… Full Review »
