    Excellent world design. The game is a work of art. Dark but also beautiful.

    It makes me crave for more, I want to see more, try to understand more, I need to experience more of Scorn!
    The Artbook is FANTASTIC, it helps with getttin' a lil' insight and lore bits as you read!
    The Soundtrack is as moody and atmospheric as you would expect! and it gave me as much inspiration as the art direction!

    Overall? Amazin' game, it feels it was made for me, I do have a new big favorite now, and I just wish I could forget it all so I could experience everythin' all over again!

    10/10 no question.

    Hopefully, this isn't our last journey into the World of Scorn.    … Expand

    SCORN. 4K, 60 FPS, "free' on game pass. Beautiful graphics and sound. I beat the game in 12 hours, with no guide and enjoying every moment (including the maze like levels).
    It is not a shooter, it does have a combat system that is functional and good for the game, as it keeps you unease the whole time.
    The story is thought provoking. All in all a great experience. Thanks to the developers    SCORN. 4K, 60 FPS, "free' on game pass. Beautiful graphics and sound. I beat the game in 12 hours, with no guide and enjoying every moment (including the maze like levels).

    It's a unique experience: a trip in the guts of an alien planet, framed with flesh and populated by creatures out of nightmares. The sound design stands out for giving the tone that makes the experience more immersive and horrifying. I waited for many years for this game and he gave me everything I expected.

    Scorn is one of those games that rarely see, but you always wish for. Beautiful, environments with twisted freaks to feast your eyes upon. It's a game that you wish would never end, and allow you to continuously explore more of the world to see what other freakish inhabitants can be seen. But sadly, the game was a but too short, and ended too early. A beautiful game, and experience nevertheless.

    Scorn is a marvelous art-game, perfectly executed and exactly what it wanted to be! For me, as a H.R. Giger enthusiast, I couldn't get enough of this dark, horrible and fantastic world. It's like the world of this artist came to life, an endless picture to walk through and be astonished by all these eerie things I see.

    Allot of gamers are just way too mainstream, with no sense of art in any way. Fifa X, CoD X, Ubisoft X, ShootLootLevel, RunGun No. X all the same, all the time. And then there are Indi-Diamonds like Scorn, yes.

    Don't waste your time if you don't understand those kind of things - nobody's sad about it, play XY No. X forever. Art is not the stuff that's present in your life, but please: Don't rate something you certainly don't understand...    … Expand

    Awesome! It's one of the best games on Gamepass currently. However it is a puzzle game. Not a shooter.

    Este juego es visualmente hermoso, su ambientacion obscura y bizarra es todo un deleite, no recomendable para jugadores casuales, no te llevarán de la manita y si no le piensa mejor sigue llorando.

    Шедевр. Такой красивой графики никогда в играх не видел, головоломки в игре интересные, а малое количество патрон и монстры заставляют находится в постоянном напряжении.

    One of the most disturbing games you will ever play. It is important for you to know that this is not a FPS. Instead this is a survival game mostly focused on resolving puzzles while trying to escape from a nightmarish alien place. The atmosphear, graphics and sound are INCREDIBLE, you can almost smell that rottish place.

    The game is a graphic story in general, with touches of survival horror mixed with puzzles, at times walks predominate to introduce you to the story and its world, and far from being boring, you get into it, its setting, sound and graphics are spectacular, the challenge is moderate, and honestly I have not seen anything negative, I liked it a lot, its visual section is disgustingly beautiful!.

    Jeu fini sur Series X.

    Scorn est un titre qui marquera son temps parce qu'il est à ce jour vraiment unique. Tout comme une peinture ou une oeuvre à part entière, une simple image du jeu vous fera comprendre qu'on parle de Scorn et pas d'un énième remake, suite ou jeu aseptisé. Alors oui, Scorn est l'exemple même du jeu qu'on adore, ou qu'on déteste au plus haut point. Il est glauque,    Jeu fini sur Series X.

    Scorn est un titre qui marquera son temps parce qu'il est à ce jour vraiment unique. Tout comme une peinture ou une oeuvre à part entière, une simple image du jeu vous fera comprendre qu'on parle de Scorn et pas d'un énième remake, suite ou jeu aseptisé.
    Alors oui, Scorn est l'exemple même du jeu qu'on adore, ou qu'on déteste au plus haut point. Il est glauque, malsain par nature, dérangeant la totalité du temps. Il joue avec nos faiblesses, nos dégoûts nos peurs, mais en les sublimant avec une direction artistique incomparable. Dès les premiers instants on sent la passion des développeurs pour leur jeu, tout ce qu'ils ont voulu y mettre en détail ,architecture, lore entier. Bluffant...

    Pour revenir sur le fond du jeu, surtout ne regardez pas le titre via des streamers ou la lecture de test. Le jeu doit se découvrir avec lenteur pour analyser chaque détail, au risque de tout vous gâcher. Je vous rassure, ce n'est pas une succession de couloirs interminables, le jeu parvient à nous surprendre à chaque chapitre jusqu'au dénouement final.
    Ne pensez pas non plus que c'est un shooter FPS. Au contraire, les "armes" que vous récupérez ne sont qu'une excuse de plus de vous montrer à quel point vous êtes insignifiants dans le jeu, vulnérable, faible. Il ne faut s'en servir qu'en dernier recours, quand vous êtes acculé, qu'il n'y a pas d'autres échapatoires. Et dans ces moments là, vous vous rendez compte que vous êtes rapidement à la merci de vos ennemis. Non, il faut analyser la faune locale, la regarder tranquillement évoluer dans son univers et comprendre comment ils réagissent.
    J'ai fait tout le jeu en tuant quasiment aucun ennemi, sauf à de rares moments où je n'avais plus le choix. C'est là toute la subtilité du jeu que vous ne pouvez comprendre sans le faire avec patience et sans regarder des streamers débiles qui rush les jeux pour l'audience...

    Les énigmes sont assez simples et augmentent en difficulté au fur et à mesure. Elles ne sont jamais impossibles et très loin des casses têtes de Myst par exemple.

    Non Scorn est une aventure qui se "savoure" en regardant chaque détail des décors, son architecture, son univers, ses mécanismes pour vraiment comprendre ce qui se passe autour de nous et ce qui nous arrive.

    Alors oui, 6-7h de jeu, ça peut paraître court, mais elles sont intenses et resteront inoubliables.

    Son seul défaut ? Ne pas être disponible en VR.    … Expand

    Amazing atmosphere and disturbingly beautiful graphics! The puzzles weren't brain wracking hard and the sound quality was top notch. The game could have been a little longer but it was another out of nowhere game from a small studio.

    People need to understand that this is more a puzzle game than the classic horror game where you shoot at everything.

    Horror quality of this game can compare to Resident Evil 7, also the pods, virus and slimy stuff in Scorn along walls and areas is almost on par with how Resident Evil 7 did the background of virus

    The game's greatest strength is definitely its brilliant wordless narrative, where you piece together the fate of a dead civilization and the creature you play as in your head. Scorn is an experience that any fan of oppressive atmospheres and rotting flesh should not miss. [Issue#323]

    Give Scorn a chance if you feel like you can enjoy this game as an experience, rather than a strictly gameplay-focused project. Otherwise some questionable design choices and short length will most likely just bore you to death.
