Granted, the character models are pretty trash but the environmental graphics are stunning and the camera angles are so immaculate that Alfred Hitchcock is feeling a little tingly in his grave. The story and the acting were so melodramatic that it took away some of the fear of playing it. Off the bat, the story is so hokey but it feels on par with late 90’s horror games. What will Caroline find in the Winterlake Mansion/Hospital? Nothing good, probably. The monsters in Tormented Souls would find kin in anything from Silent Hill and you will be armed with nothing but a nail gun or a homemade pipe shotgun. Instead of, I don’t know, cutting her losses (meaning that eye) and just peacing the hell out of there, Caroline still works to try and find out what happened to those girls.Īlong the way, she will meet up several times with a super sus priest (I mean, name one that isn’t) who inexplicably is unaffected by all of the monsters roaming the halls.

Full nudity alert here for anyone sensitive to that kind of thing. Seconds after arriving, she’s bopped in the head and wakes up on a ventilator, totally nude in a bathtub of water and missing one of her eyes. The letter states that the girls disappeared at a hospital (which looks like the Spencer Mansion had a baby with the asylum from Evil Within) called Winterlake.įor some unknown reason, Caroline decides to head to Winterlake and dig into the mystery of the disappearance. In Tormented Souls, you play as Caroline Walker, a woman who randomly gets a letter in the mail with a picture of a set of twin girls inside. Tormented Souls tries to recreate this feeling and that’s perfect for Halloween. Games like that gave you the illusion of control but when something scary happened, fear took over and the tank controls usually sent you right into the path of the beastie.
Nothing felt quite so scary as early survival horror like Resident Evil or Silent Hill. But when you are the one holding the flashlight and trying to make your way down a dark hallway and you suddenly hear something in your headphones, it’s a whole different ball game. While watching a scary movie, there’s a disconnect between you and the story. There’s something special about scary games. It’s about this time of year that everyone and their mom starts playing scary games.
