To better compare, we looked for you the advantages and disadvantages of Below and the notes given by specialized sites.

9.4
10

GamePitt
Very atmospheric with decent jumpscares and a constant fear of terror
It's nice that you're playing as an ordinary person and not someone trained to kill
The story is very interesting and makes you want to seek out all of the notes and film reels
In terms of performance, The Chant runs like a dream (or Nightmare), it's very smooth with no issues at all
The music, voice acting, and visuals are all AAA standard, despite being a much smaller team
There no photo mode! In a game that looks as good as this, there needs to be a photo mode
There's also no New Game+ mode or Chapter Select, so if you miss anything you can easily go back without replaying the whole game
This isn't a negative as such, but I really wanted the game to be longer - I was left wanting more as the credits rolled
Limited-use weapons ?

Real feeling of terror
A fairly wide variety in the bestiary
Good lifespan for the genre (count 7 to 10h)
Pretty pretty artistically speaking...
The presence of a VF
Convincing sound design
The gameplay quite heavy in the long run (displacements in particular)
Some sequences of Die and retry pushy, poorly calibrated and poorly placed checkpoints
Some incomprehensible script shortcuts that break the immersion
... But not always technically comfortable
Face modeling is generally not satisfactory
The game asks you to looter constantly

GamersGlobal
The tutorials can be consulted at any time...
Three levels of difficulty
Brief action prologue, followed by a coherent introduction to the framework
Good mix of exploration and combat
In addition to vital energy, spiritual energy and the psyche are also important for survival.
Discovery of traditional objects earns points for the upgrade system
Partially successful monster design
New scenario
Environments and models partly pretty...
Fine animations, including fully animated puzzle interactions
Good German synchronization and text translation
Successful English dubbing
Good soundscape for fighting, especially to the screams of monsters
... which may be necessary as some things are explained during battles
Jess becomes too strong and the scary factor also decreases
Some rather dull environments and types of monsters
Narratively bumpy
... but also mediocre places
Animations when enemies catch Jess look wooden

Guardado Rapido
The design of the island as a unique and complex setting.
The combat system is very original.
Voice in Spanish.
Lots of variety of enemies.
Lazy narratively, he does not exploit his possibilities.
At the graphic level, the new generation requires something more.
Some of its mechanisms are not well explained.

Geeks By Girls
An intriguing story at first glance.
The design of the enemies is quite original.
Pretty nice graphics in terms of scenery.
Presence of blocking bugs forcing to lose voluntarily to restart the sequence.
The menu is reduced to its simplest expression, without the possibility of reviewing the commands as needed.
Lack of variety in environments.
Recurring problems displaying subtitles, when you want to do without the dubbed version rather badly played.
A slow and painful dodge that does not help in the combat phases.
A very repetitive title in the end.
