    This isn’t a game that will appeal to modern gamers. The dated appearance and unusual controls will be a turn-off. However, if you are in your late 30s or older, you’ll enjoy the retro nature of this title. I think the developer has delivered a solid puzzle adventure experience, and The Order of the Snake Scale is an uncomfortable, but enjoyable jaunt.

    The Order of the Snake Scale tries to capture the spirit of classic survival horror, but in doing so its real "achievement" is to remind us that even the best of those games came with serious caveats, ones that later evolutions of the genre left behind. It has a nice atmosphere in places and a decent plot, but it's ultimately weighed down by outdated gameplay and visuals that feel less nostalgic than simply subpar.
