Game Review: ‘Visage’

SadSquare Studio was awesome enough to let me experience the long-awaited spiritual successor to P.T. that had fans of the playable teaser excited, I’m talking about Visage. I got the game on Halloween but unfortunately, I have had issues with it at first but I simply had to just start a new game and now everything seems to be working fine, let’s see the faces of death in Visage. Visage is about a man named Dwayne Anderson who is alone in his house, his family not present, and strange things start to occur in the house leading Dwayne to encounter hostile ghosts, and visions of past families that have lived in the house and met tragic ends. Now onto the game itself. The controls of Visage are very involved (for a controller) as you have to use different combinations of controller buttons to look at, pick up, switch hands, store, drop, items you encounter in the game.

‘P.T.’ Changing The Way Games Scare Gamers

Back in August of 2014 players on PlayStation 4 got the chance to play the first ever playable trailer that was known simply as P.T., a first-person horror game like no other. The game ends revealing that this playable trailer was for (at the time) the upcoming game Silent Hills a new installment in the game series, sadly production of the game was canceled.

Some can argue that P.T. was not the first game to dome something like this, the no combat, first-person horror experience. It’s true, four years prior to P.T. gamers were scared by Amnesia: The Dark Descent, a survival horror game where players explore a dark castle while trying to avoid the creatures that stalk its corridors with no means to protect themselves.

Players Facing Death In ‘Visage’

For gamers that like in your face horror games that give you the feeling that you’re living a horror movie experience, SadSquare Studio brings the horror home in ‘Visage’. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the game will most likely be released in 2018 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and yes, there will be a VR option! The title of the game comes from the old French/Latin word that means a person’s face or facial expression which is fitting since the game’s tagline seems to be, “Each death has its Visage.” ‘Visage’ takes place in the 1980’s in a large house where the player lives. The house over the years has been plagued by violent deaths in nearly every room. Players explore the house to unravel the mysteries it holds by witnessing the deaths of the past while at the same time trying to not attract too much dark energy by being afraid. In some respect the game visually
