Articles by Kevin Lynn:
The Works of Mercy review
This short, surreal psychological thriller is D.O.A. thanks to its fatally flawed story and lack of gameplay depth.
Visage review
To all appearances, this genuinely unnerving, surprisingly substantial supernatural thriller is like the spiritual successor to P.T. that horror fans have been waiting for.
Disco Elysium review
This brilliantly absurd, thoroughly absorbing roleplaying adventure will be music to the ears of any open world mystery lover.
Outlast 2 review
The horror sequel has plenty more atmospheric jump scares, but a weak story and balance issues should prevent it from becoming the cult hit its predecessor was.
Yuppie Psycho review
This blend of survival horror, adventure, modern day office satire and retro-style visuals is just so crazy that it not only works, it does so brilliantly.
Yume Nikki – Dream Diary review
This reimagining of a 15-year-old cult freeware hit represents an intriguing jump to 3D whose design decisions can't quite stick the landing.
The Witch’s House MV review
It's trying at times, but this commercial remaster of the popular 2012 free horror adventure is packed with deadly delights.
Guard Duty review
Those on the lookout for a classic-styled comic adventure will find much to like in this sci-fi fantasy journey through two vastly different timelines.
WILL: A Wonderful World review
Holding people's fates in your hands is something of a mixed blessing in this ambitious but uneven choice-driven visual novel.
The Red Strings Club review
It sets a low bar for interactivity, but this dialogue-heavy cyberpunk sim serves up an intriguing narrative experience.
Iris.Fall review
Blink and you might miss it, but this short environmental puzzler plays with light and shadow in charmingly engaging ways.
Call of Cthulhu review
Perhaps the most authentic Lovecraft videogame to date, this replayable genre-blending adventure/RPG hybrid is one of the great ones.
Path to Mnemosyne review
This black-and-white puzzler is uniquely compelling with its infinite zoom presentation, though its abstract story and familiar puzzles aren't quite so memorable.
The Outpost Nine: Episode One review
Fans of Alien will feel right at home in this retro-styled, text-based horror series debut, while yearning for some original ideas of its own.
Sagebrush review
It isn't perfect, but this modest suicide cult mystery is a thoughtful exploration of the human pursuit of heaven on earth.
