    Another dose of Supermassive’s choose-your-own horror, lacking in scares.

    All in all, it’s great to have The Dark Pictures back with us after an extended break. The Turning Point feature is fantastic (we’d like to see the older games retrofitted with it), the story is full of interesting twists and turns, and the extensions of more traditional gameplay are welcome. Some choices still leave us screaming at the screen to meet in the middle, but on the whole Directive 8020 maintains the series high bar.

    Directive 8020 is one of Supermassive Games' weakest projects. While the sci-fi premise is fascinating and the audiovisual presentation is solid, the experience collapses under the weight of weak writing, a lack of true horror tension, and poorly implemented stealth mechanics. Despite a surprising plot twist, it fails to capitalize on its potential, resulting in a fragile narrative adventure.
