Jun 18, 2025Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest DLC is tense yet unsatisfying in its encore.
-
Jun 18, 2025Its inevitable sections where you're beating a frantic escape are frustrating tests of trial and error, and, while developer The Chinese Room conjures some memorable sights and dreamlike weirdness, anyone expecting something on a par with the main story in Still Wakes the Deep will come away bitterly disappointed. Sadly, Still Wakes the Deep: Siren's Rest ends up feeling like an inconsequential two hours or so, failing to really add anything to Caz McLeary and co.'s surreal and superb journey. And those answers you’re looking for? Frustratingly, they never come. But, then, maybe that’s the point.

Jun 18, 2025Still Wakes the Deep was one of my favorite games of 2024. This expansion is one I never thought we’d get. I’m very glad that it exists, as it has the same level of tension and terror as the base game does. But completely submerged and even more claustrophobic. If you were a fan of Still Wakes the Deep, you owe it to yourself to check this one out. It’s just as strange and interesting as the base game. All while finding new ways to scare you.
