Dementium: The Ward

It's rough around the edges due to having been a DS game but if you can look past that, it is a genuinely good horror game.

Amazing port for a bonkers game. Incredible that i can play a DS game so smootly, love game preservation. Don't play on the hardest difficulty if you want a good time.

Fun but very simple gameplay.

Kind of incredible how well this holds up, even as a (mostly) straight port from the DS. It's nothing that will blow your socks off today, but for being a first person horror game on the DS, you have to give it credit. Story is shallow and vague, and overall lacking, and the pacing is kind of clunky as far as progression goes, but this was kind of a first, and it feels experimental. Also wears its inspiration on its sleeve. This was pitched as a Silent Hill game, and obviously repurposed after the pitch was denied. It would've been an interesting turn if it was, and probably would've delivered a better plot if it was. Not bad. Absolutely worth a shot when there's a sale.

Excellent classic. Love this game. Love the memories of playing this on my DS Lite. Glad it's back.

This has the potential to be a good game but it feels unfinished. At least with established games like Resident Evil 1 or Condemned at least you get some story and dialogue to set the scene and get invested in the story, which is the point of any horror or survival horror. This just sort of tosses you in at the start and I just lost interest shortly in.
