Classic survival horror

It’s all about this: Tormented Souls still exists until August 4 for €9.99 (with Plus subscription) and for €11.99 without the service.

In this title, you slip into the role of Caroline Walker, who has probably never seen a horror movie. Otherwise she wouldn’t be walking into a spooky mansion, all alone and unarmed, just because of a photo of two twin girls that triggers something in her.

The Story of Tormented Souls isn’t exactly original, but it works for what makes the game interesting: the mechanics and the spooky atmosphere set in the old mansion that used to be a hospital.

In order to find out what these twins are all about and how the hell we are supposed to escape from the house, we have to solve puzzles in order to be able to explore new rooms. Two dangers ensure that this task does not become a walk in the park.

Monsters and Darkness: For one thing, we’re being attacked by operationally upgraded and mutated creatures. For defense we find weapons of different effectiveness and have to be careful with ammunition and healing. Second, there is the fear of the dark. Similar to what we know from the Amnesia series, Caroline mustn’t stand in unlit corners for too long, otherwise she’ll just drop dead from fear.

A cool twist: Caroline can only equip either Lighter or her Gun at a time. In dark rooms we must first run around the opponents and light candles before we can attack.

When I remember the title, I feel a comforting shudder and want to start again almost immediately. The game just builds up a really nice, evil and disgusting creepy mood. In addition, it provides constant thrills. There’s the combination of darkness mechanics and combat, but the combat itself also gives you goosebumps as Caroline can only shoot or punch while standing and that can be tricky with the fixed camera and in the tight spaces.

You can only save manually and with consumables. If it’s been a long time since the last time, gasping is the order of the day. I also enjoyed the challenging and cleverly designed puzzles.

Of course, don’t expect AAA horror. Among other things, the character models and the (English) synchro are not on a top level. If you can overlook that, I highly recommend Tormented Souls.

Could Tormented Souls be something for you or are you bothered by the fixed camera, for example?
