A terrifying and psychologically disturbing atmosphere.
A sound design and music that enhance the underlying anxiety.
the addition of a new plotline that effectively ties together all the elements of the plot from the first and second installments.
The environment that is constantly restructuring under our feet and giving rise to a sometimes stunning scenography of creativity.
First-person view causing motion sickness that is quite prevalent for those who are susceptible to it, requiring short gaming sessions.

Layers of Fear reviewed by Pizza Fria
Compile the first two of the series in a remastered package.
Captivating plot.
The scenarios change and bend, with such a personality that they almost become protagonists.
The audiovisual department is excellent.
Subtitled in Brazilian Portuguese
Given the emphasis on history, the replayability factor suffers.
Simpler gameplay can discourage those who are looking for more action.

Share fully restored and high-quality audio and video files.
If you have already played the two main chapters, know that they lose some of their charm.
The second episode is still the weak link of the series.

Justifiable reinvention of the first two games in the franchise.
The atmosphere is a show in itself.
The immersion with sound effects is very well done.
Use the features of the DualSense.
The stories are moving and frightening.
The method of presenting stories is not so cool.
The presentation of mechanics can be improved.
The chapters may be repetitive.

The visuals look suitably spooky in Unreal Engine 5.
The underrated Layers of Fear 2 still plays great.
Binaural audio is top notch?especially with Tony Todd?s deep baritone.
New framing device and a new chapter show the series in its best light.
The mechanics of the earlier entries can feel a bit quaint.
Inheritance?s lackluster gameplay.

An excellent re-creation of the originals using Unreal Engine 5.
Unmatched environmental and atmospheric narrative.
A complete compendium of the entire series.
Excessive reliance on "easy" fear.
Wandering in the hallways can become repetitive.
Some annoying visual uncertainties.

Extended and rounded summary of the series.
Strange sets, surreal and frightening morphing.
Many interesting stories.
Disturbingly staged frightening scenes.
Heavily polished sets and lighting.
Its best mixed, partly newly recorded.
Riddles barely present, often simple.
(also new) The game mechanics remain very limited.
Long-distance hiking through scenery can become somewhat monotonous over time.
No complete localization (only German subtitles)

Never be afraid, because all dangers are an illusion.
The last segment has some rough edges such as a weakness in vocal work.
The fight adds nothing to the repetitive gameplay.

Strong psychological horror atmosphere.
A handful of profoundly eerie set-pieces and an effective use of imagery.
Laudable audio design.
Uneven storytelling.
Some scares don?t quite land and begin to feel a little too one note.
A few puzzles feel far too trial and error.
Frame-rate hitches.
Ran into several bugs that required me to restart my console or load to a previous save.
A lack of genuine threat undermines the stakes.

The Writer's story does a good job of recontextualizing, connecting, and framing the other chapters.
Inconsistent (and frequently ineffective) storytelling
Bland, one-note gameplay loop quickly gets repetitive
Too predictable to be consistently frightening in any meaningful way.
