As someone who loves paranormal TV shows and movies, there's something really chilling about the stories behind Asylums, especially with the dark decaying rooms and history of human suffering. So to hear that the creators of the cult sleeper hit Scratches and the haunting Serena, who we know as Senscape has announced that its extremely long development project of Asylum has finally been released on GOG and Steam, we just had to sit up and take notice.
And here's the latest. "ASYLUM is an ambitious first-person horror adventure casting you into the hallucinatory setting of the Hanwell Mental Institute. As an ex-patient suffering bizarre visions, you must explore the intricate layout of the building, research its past history, and march towards a shocking conclusion. With influences ranging from Peter Cushing to Lucio Fulci, ASYLUM has been meticulously crafted with a strong focus on storytelling and atmosphere. Visit countless tenebrous environments, make your way through a towering, lifelike mental hospital, and solve compelling puzzles to find the answers you seek....ASYLUM will be an unforgettable experience".
Features :
- A mind-bending original storyline that we somehow managed to keep secret during 15 years of production.
- Around 10 hours of gameplay — and that's without learning all the dark secrets!
- An atmosphere so engrossing you will almost smell the stench of decrepitude and putrefaction around you.
- Exciting challenges rewarding your wit and observation.
- Memorable soundtrack inspired by 80s horror films and quite a bit of John Carpenter.
- No jump scares! OK, maybe just a frightening handful that will hit you when you least expect them.
- Diegetic interface and other buzz words.
