About The Alien Cube
(The Outer Middle Show)You wake up, bathed in sweat: you’ve been having bad dreams again. The strange cave, the occult symbols, the ritual site… and then that whispering, cube-shaped artifact falling from the sky — it all seemed so real. But now you are awake, and true reality hits like a bucket of cold water: the breakup with Jenny, the move, your uncle Edgar's mysterious disappearance… The doorbell catches you off guard: it is a letter, a testament from no less than your uncle, leaving you his apartment and a warning to get rid of all his manuscripts. It is time to finally go there and try to find some clues. What you don't know yet is that this search will unchain a series of terrifying revelations, secrets that should stay buried forever, and that your worst nightmares will soon come out into the light of day.


Main Features
- Survive the perils you will encounter while facing hostile weather conditions, wandering through snowy forests, forgotten dungeons, and other otherworldly locations.
- Explore horrifying places and interact with the items you will find along your journey to solve puzzles and seek out clues to unravel the mystery.
- Immerse yourself into a powerfully visual world of unnamed horrors thanks to the CryEngine 5-powered graphics with photogrammetric technology.
- Intensify the Lovecraftian experience with high-quality ambient sounds and an atmospheric soundtrack extracted from the abyss of your worst fears.
- Delve into the truth of unspeakable secrets behind the past of your uncle, the protagonist of the game The Land of Pain, and find out the connection between these two games.
Quotes
- David Jaffe (Lead Designer and Game Director of GOD OF WAR on PS2): "The story in Alien Cube is PHENOMENAL. THE ALIEN CUBE is one of the best horror games of the year! In fact, this indie game- made by ONE PERSON!- 'gets' horror better than even the classic AAA horror franchises! It's really quite impressive!"
- The Outer Middle Show: "THIS GAME WILL BLOW YOUR MIND! The Alien Cube is better than a movie. It's the most dark and atmospheric game I've ever played."
- CRYTEK: "Stunning solo-developed game demonstrates the power of CRYENGINE"
- SHIRLEY CURRY: "(...) my favorite horror game developer of all time; Alessandro Guzzo!! He's the only one who knows how to do it right!! IMHO"

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players appreciate this cosmic horror adventure for its atmospheric Lovecraftian storytelling, smooth performance, and visually appealing graphics that effectively build dread and tension. However, some find the pacing excessively slow with limited interactivity, feeling more like tedious walking than engaging exploration, though fans of the genre generally find it worthwhile despite the linear structure.
Badly coded, no keymapping support, and no response from developer who has clearly lost interest in what has been created. Do not waste your money.
Very cool game. I loved the strange and mysterious world
Great game !
I enjoyed The Land of Pain quite a bit. I thought it was a pretty straight-forward, but atmospheric and fun walking simulator/horror experience. This one on the other hand is a piece of absolutely unbelievable garbage. More effort and more time and money have obviously been poured into this game which makes it doubly shameful that it's such a piece of trash. The controls are godawful, the graphics are actually worse than The Land of Pain and the platforming, which was one of the weaker, but not terrible, parts of The Land of Pain is so brutally bad as to render the game almost unplayable. I'm throwing in the towel on this one I'm pretty close to the end, but I'm done punishing myself. I like to support small game developers, but I'm honestly pissed off at how bad this game has gotten. It's disrespectful to release a game this bad. I went from having a lot of affection for the charming first game to honestly being genuinely angry at this one. Shameful. Absolutely shameful.
Definitely improves on Land of Pain. It's a little longer too.
I don't leave too many reviews but I had to for this one. Incredibly impressed by the game, can't believe it was done by a solo developer. Amazing work! This was so much better than the first game too (despite it also being excellent), and Cosmic Fear seemed to be just as large of a step forward. I initially found this series/developer when watching a friend play through Cosmic Fear and it looked so good that I went and got the first two of Alessandro's games. He just gets better and better, can't wait for his next project. The Land of Pain had a bit too many enemy/chase areas for my taste, I'll deal with 'em but I usually play these type of games for the story/lore/environment. But I was pleasantly surprised to see enemy areas greatly toned down for The Alien Cube. Overall I think the whole series is excellent, especially so for a solo dev. Can't wait to see what he does next!
