“This place is not a place of honour.”
Some people sing the praises of “visceral” games.
Others extol the virtues of “immersive” games.

Me, I’m increasingly drawn to “perverse” games.

and hankering to know more.
Take The Great Below, a newhorror… thingmabob from Cantabria-based Dobra Studios.
It’s about exploring a strange house full of dreadful paintings in the dark.

Viewing the map doesn’t take you out of the world, however.
You’ll also hear things, like running footsteps.
It’s said that the darkness of the mansion is alive.

“This place is not a place of honour,” the letter reads.
“Out here darkness awaits you, you will suffer it again and again.
In here the light awaits you, you will desire it again and again.”
The Great Below is out very soon - 5th December 2023 - and there’sa demo on the Steam page.
