    The Quarry could have been a great game with its cast and interesting storyline. Unfortunately, it will be remembered as an average Supermassive game due to its inability to adjust the pace of the story, too weak playable parts and not completing the story properly.

    The Quarry is a fun romp that, thanks to great casting and an intriguing mystery, manages to stay mostly engaging for its 9 hour story. The plot doesn't quite stick the landing, and some real challenge in the gameplay sequences would be nice, but nonetheless this is one of the better games from Supermassive in a long time.

    The Quarry is like any other summer horror slasher movie that we watched as kids during the 80’s. Its good in the first few hours but then it loses its momentum. Unfortunately a much weaker game than Until Dawn.

    Old wine in even older bottles: The developers make far too little of the possibilities of the medium. The only thing that's really creepy here are the numerous logic gaps.

    As a fan of Supermassive's other games I was really excited for this one, hoping it would be as good as Until Dawn, but after I finished it I just felt disappointed, especially with the abrupt ending and bad writing that made me not even want to try another playthrough to see how else the story could have played out.

    But its baggy middle does become more taut in The Quarry’s strong denouement; the threat and deathcount rises, the story threads come together and your decisions show their consequence. The paths you choose make for quite the spiderweb, which Supermassive lets you poke into should you wish, and it is never less than impressive to see all of those different decisions pulling together your own personal story through the game. Even if there can be some odd cuts between scenes, a skipped beat because you managed to get one of the group killed.

    For everything The Quarry does right, it has just as many glaring issues or niggling problems to bring it right back down to Earth. Supermassive Games has been trying to better Until Dawn for seven years now, and at this point, it looks like it's never, ever going to happen. The Quarry is just a bit dull, and that's the exact opposite of what these types of titles strive to be.
