    Hollow is a good horror game inspired by great games like Alien: Isolation and Resident Evil Revelations. However, the game sins by executing mechanics like melee combat, for example. Although the graphics are excellent and it has an excellent atmosphere, the weird movement of the enemies makes the game look odd at times. The game is frightening at times when you walk alone on the ship listening to voices succumbing to the dark, you do get some scares, but it is not frequent. The gameplay is within the standards of the current horror games. Despite its problems, Hollow is a highly recommended game for horror fans and games like Resident Evil Revelations and Alien: Isolation.

    A horror game with good ideas that comes up short in many aspects: while its history is addictive and progressively improves, its short duration brings us back to reality, and while its setting and sound put us in a tense mood with some jump scares mixed in, its technical side takes us out of that mood with a significant range of defects to be cleaned up.

    It's suspicious that the 10/10 reviews are from the same day, anyway, this game is awful, it has so much film grain that it's hard to seeIt's suspicious that the 10/10 reviews are from the same day, anyway, this game is awful, it has so much film grain that it's hard to see whats interactive and whats part of the decoration, the puzzles are bad and frustrating, movement is uber slow, ammo is extremely scarse, if you combine that with the fact that you can barely see stuff on the ground to pick up and that the melee attack doesn't kill enemies and you can't outrun them.
    Worst part of this game: there are no refunds on the nintendo eshop.    … Full Review »

    The reivews here are kind of suspect. The game seems rushed, half baked and unfinished. Graphics are tough to look at. If Doom could be doneThe reivews here are kind of suspect. The game seems rushed, half baked and unfinished. Graphics are tough to look at. If Doom could be done properly on Switch there is no excuse. The story is hard to follow. It is hard to see anything in the dark enviorments and when the flashlight is on it makes it impossible to see sometimes. Also your character moves at only 2 speeds slow and extremely slow. Half the time your shots will miss at point blank range against enemies. I was very excited for this game as it looked interesting so i bought it first day. Save your money. Don't make the same mistake I did. Do not buy!!! Unless the developer releases an update to fix alot of these issues. There are a ton of better games on Switch for $20 or under.… Full Review »
