    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. During these last years plenty of incredible horror game experiences have been crafted: Hundreds, if not thousands of games have been released, but I don't think we have ever seen something like this game. This Playable Teaser for Silent Hills is a clear demonstration of how a horror game must be done: It must have a frightening atmosphere, a well-presented story (I really liked the way the developers implemented the story through the radio), and upon them all, the scary factor: these details that make us feel afraid of something. In Slender, the feeling that you were being chased during the whole experience, alongside with its good atmosphere created one of the most impressive terror games of the whole gaming industry. On the other hand, P.T. creates that feeling of being chased to make you feel afraid of something, but it combines this with the confusion this place will presumably create to you. How that place works. I just loved the feeling of confusion that you get from the game. Expand

    This is the most realistic game I have ever played or seen it's just beautiful, and because it's so realistic it scared the living **** out of me in a good way that is!

    Video games always amaze me, they really are the purest form of art. I can play The Last of Us and be blown away by the story, gameplay and creativity.

The number one thing I loved so much about the early Silent Hill games was the incredible atmosphere and level design and those qualities had been lacking since after SH4. This time around I think they finally hit the nail on the head. It's clear that Kojima and Del Toro did their homework brushing up on what made the originals great and then from there they spun it on it's head and created something new and exciting. If the final product is anywhere near as good as this demo is than I think we could possibly be dethroning SH2 as the best in the series. Oh and don't look behind you, trust me. Expand

    This game is utterly petrifying. So frightening my partner, who also screamed out loud with me, had to walk me to the toilet. The graphics are pretty sure but a hugs shout out for the sound design; in 5.1 the sound is a scary, and integral, part of the game. You'll jump, swear, get sweaty palms, and scream. You will definitely want to terrorise your friends and family with it too.

You will definitely want to terrorise your friends and family with it too.

    It is also a staggering lesson in economy of gameplay, and place, that other developers should take more of; you'll only experience one corridor but the game is designed in such a way that it never feels repetitive or boring. It is the stark opposite of, for example a title like Destiny where there are multiple worlds and enemies yet every single mission feels exactly the same as the last.

    It might be a prequel to another game (though not a demo of that game) but it feels quite fully fledged. For a free title this was quite, quite special and could easily have been released as a full-price downloadable title (compare with the MGS prologue released at £30).

    All told this is quite a fabulous title.

    It is only a demo, but it is an excellent one. There are some excellent scares, an incredibly creepy house, and the reveal at the end if you do not already know it will make your jaw drop. Just make sure not to give up the first time you die, because it isn't the end. And most importantly, check absolutely everything for clues, it is the only way to progress.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sadly it was only a demo but it was a good one. It was cool how you had to play close attention to detail to find the clue's to proceed. The best scare in the demo would have to be when the child is hanging in the locked fridge swinging all over. Expand

    Without a doubt the best horror game ever played! I have literally never been scared playing a game, NEVER. Dead Space 2 came close but never really, I mean really scared me. Except for PT, I was litterally afraid the entire demo long. BRAVO Kojima and Guilermo BRAVO!!!!

    I think this may be the best demo I have ever played, or rather playable teaser. I am very fond of Hideo Kojima since he made my favorite series of all time: Metal Gear Solid. I read back in 2013 he wanted to get involved in Silent Hill and he finally went and did it! I am not so sure about Guillermo Del Toro because I only know him from Hellboy and Pacific Rim. Now back onto P.T. ThisI think this may be the best demo I have ever played, or rather playable teaser. I am very fond of Hideo Kojima since he made my favorite series of all time: Metal Gear Solid.

    Dude it's a good, honest free-to-play game. (There's no micro-transactions) the graphics are outstanding for a demo and the game is scary mostly because of its use of atmosphere over jump scares (unlike that overrated crap Five nights at Freddy) The ghost that's pursuing you is also terrifying but I can't emphasize how often I jumped **** on some creepy sound than ump scares.

    The first time I played this game I felt like I was waited for this game in my whole life. My jaw dropped from the graphics, the creepy story and subtle horror elements made me feel like I am 10 again and watching my first horror movie alone. The game barely lasts an hour, and I had to restart it like 3-4 times, because my heart was racing so fast.

    Kojima or Konami, I don't care: I.

I will not spoil what happens in the house, but I will say it is utterly terrifying. P.T does not stack up to Outlast, but P.T far rises above Slender Man. If you own a PS4, I would definitely recommend downloading P.T Expand

    Its a **** playable teaser and Kojima created one of the scariest games of all time. This games cancellation is Konami's biggest **** up, depriving everyone of one of the most ambitious horror games of all time and putting the final nail in the Silent Hill coffin, all while pushing the only person who actually cares about games out of the company. **** Konami.

    It could became the definitive horror experience, but life doesn’t go always as we think... so we never know! But one thingh is sure, I really believe no one that have played it will forget it! Thanks Kojima for this experience!
