I had a hard time with PT, and now also with its successor: a game made in Spain that you can try now
The genre of horror video games currently has two very clear major currents. Are they survival horror classic cut, but also the titles that have been influenced by PT. This is where today’s discovery comes in, a title of USAorigin whose demo you can try and which, at least, has left me wanting more.
It is about Mourning, a first-person horror title in which you will have to manage to navigate a house in which it is happening something paranormal. Trapped in a house from which you cannot get out, you will have to solve puzzles and try not to die of fear in a place where you are not alone.
Some creatures (or specters, or individuals… I’m not sure what they are, but they do give you a pretty bad vibe) covered in sheets await you around every corner, although you won’t be playing the game of cat and mouse for that. . And it is that Mourning is a purely narrative title: There are no enemies a lot Outlast and no ways to die.
What is it that makes this title want to recommend it to you? Well, easy: its setting. The way everything is designed, to keep you in tension without requiring no jumpscare It has made it clear to me that this team of developers born in Gran Canaria knows what they are doing.
Although it is true that it is a slow and leisurely game, it seems to me that this is very well measured to be able to recreate ourselves in its atmosphere, immerse ourselves in their scares and have a hard time, which, after all, is what all horror fans want. If you add to this some pretty cool puzzles, there is a round experience that in its demo reveals not only ambition, but potential.
If you want to take a look at it, you can go to the Mourning page on Steam and download this very demo. Its developers have warned that not part of the game definitive, but it is another chapter of this terrifying world to feed the lore that they are creating.
We still don’t have a date for Mourning to arrive. Unreal Engine 5 Horror Title Is Scheduled For Release during 2023, but its creators have not yet been encouraged to give us more clues about it. It will also come to consoles, although what we know is that the version of our platform will be the first and foremost, with the rest being ports.
