    The Devil In Me is a solid round-off to Season One of The Dark Pictures Anthology. It has some of the best character and story work so far, with gruesome, inventive horror that kept us on our toes. Once the online woes are sorted we’ll be jumping back in for another go, and can recommend fans alike do the same.

    Without a doubt, this is the best Dark Anthology game so far and a true climax to season one. Not only fans of the series but fans of the genre will love playing this. The acting, visual detail, sound design and writing could not be bettered here. Series mechanics have not only been improved but also extended delivering an extra level of depth to a fantastic experience. In short developer, Supermassive Games has delivered a horror classic that will keep players on the edge of their seats for hours.

    We love the more realistic story approach and character set of The Devil in Me as well as the expanded gameplay mechanics. Don't expect a totally different experience or an absolute genre high flier from the season's finale, but in any case the best episode inside The Dark Pictures Dye Anthology so far.

    The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me is a fantastic horror adventure title. With 5 unique characters and a dark story, this is one game that'll chill you to the bone. Furthermore, you must remember that every decision matters and death is eerily close.

    The Devil in Me brilliantly closes The Dark Pictures Anthology first season. A careful and exciting story, a cast of interesting characters, complex decision-making, and an experience much more focused on exploration are some of its main elements. Despite some small technical problems that are already common in the saga, The Devil in Me is an absolute must for horror fans.

    The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me, the fourth installment of the series and the conclusion of the first season, uses a serial killer to tell a story in which death has value.

    While staying true to The Dark Pictures franchise, The Devil in Me attempts to innovate by incorporating an inventory system and characters with real-world expertise. By taking on America's first serial killer, the game manages to instill an interesting vibe with its "Castle of Murders." Unfortunately, and although we are curious about the fate of each of the protagonists, the title struggles to convince completely. The story takes a long time to start, the pace is a little too slow – despite some nice finds – and we feel little empathy for the characters, stereotypical as possible. If we add a gameplay that accumulates clichés seen and reviewed, The Devil in Me does not have the content of The Quarry or even of a House of Ashes. Despite everything, the formula works thanks to the place inspired by a real event and a finale rich in tension.

It starts off slow with too much exploration, but a few hours in, it starts to get intense and scary. It's still has a solid story with hard decisions to make, but the gameplay is much more immersive like a traditional horror game.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it for fans of horror and narrative adventures.    … Expand

    The Devi in Me risulta quindi un discreto titolo, che cala il sipario sulla prima stagione della The Dark Pictures Anthology in maniera un po’ meno decisa rispetto alle aspettative. L’ambientazione è sicuramente una delle più suggestive della serie e riesce a farla da padrona per la gestione dell’ansia e dell’inquietudine, riproducendo in maniera estremamente fedele il castello del primo serial killer americano, la storia d’altra parte si è fatta trascinare da una narrativa a tratti troppo lenta, soprattutto nelle prime ore di gioco, non riuscendo comunque a mantenere l’attenzione del giocatore al 100%. La stessa cosa accade con i personaggi, che non riescono purtroppo a creare il legame empatico con il giocatore, come accadeva nei precedenti titoli della serie.    … Expand

The story is kind of boring and very predictable. The worst tho is the glitches. Some voice glitches (switching from french to english all game long) , some mouvements glitch and even the heart beating was broken. The graphics are broken too, the characters have to emotions and their eyes are so weird. Dark pictures let me down for this one. That was not fun to play at all.

    - Tons of glitches
    - Predictable story
