    We don’t think Minecraft-ish graphics are a great choice for a horror game, but even leaving that aside, The Padre is very confusing and dull. It might have been a good comeback for the classic survival horror, but all its good ideas get lost in its very poor design.

    The Padre is a horror-themed adventure that's not frightening, is filled with pop culture jokes that aren't that humorous, has enemies that are annoying to fight with, and, finally, offers an assortment of puzzles that are a mixed bag. It looks good, and, generally, means well... but you should better play Silent Hill instead.

    The Padre‘s visuals and controls undo what could have been in interesting take on horror. It’s one to avoid, we’re afraid.
