wccftech
Strong survival horror gameplay with rewarding exploration.
Challenging and weighty combat, where running sometimes is the best option.
Absolutely dripping with atmosphere, amplified by great visuals and audio.
Good story, supported by well-written and interesting characters.
Subjective, but the more linear nature may disappoint some people.
Annoyingly limited inventory spaces, often taken up by key-quest items.

Four levels of combat difficulty
Difficulty of puzzles adjustable in two levels.
Character system, creation and inventory well thought out...
Good story with a lot of Cthulhu ambiance.

Solid combat system
Some fun riddles and a few optional tasks
Decent playtime (12-15 hours)
Atmospheric framework implemented
Successful on a stylistic level
Some beautiful effects (fire, reflections)
Good synchronization
Bold sound effects
... which translates to a lot of micromanagement
Areas often designed in a labyrinthine way, which can confuse some people despite having a map.
Technically only average
The character models and facial expressions are quite crude.
No German voice

Excellent Lovecraftian atmosphere
Challenging and clever puzzles
Good replayability and post-game content
Inventory too thin

The progression of the protagonist is almost incidental.

Shacknews
The atmosphere is top-notch and very spooky.
Genuinely scary and tense in places.
The item economy is pretty well balanced.
A variety of difficulty levels allows you to find your own challenge.
Combat can be clunky and awkward.
Occasional spikes of difficulty can add some frustration.
The two main characters can feel a little dry.
It just lacks that certain something that makes the genre greats stand out.

4players
Very captivating survival-horror game concept
Exploring and going back motivates.
Solid riddles with rewards
Tactical shooting game with different types of enemies and unique behaviors.
Dense atmosphere of Arkham with enough eldritch horror
A somewhat confusing history resolution
Boss fights are slowed down by inventory management.
The only opponent of Stalker is weak - both in terms of design and level of threat.
The feedback on hits and gameplay could be more impactful and satisfying.
Small technical errors
