Before the Dawn: SENARA Prologue

[h1] Not bad first person horror. Stuck on ship find way to escape from this madhouse. Visually looks good but performance is pretty bad. Looking for key, cards and valve to open next door so there's plenty of running around, at least the map is small. Have some value but it needs more work. Monsters are sluggish, easy to avoid. Rooms need some sort of ventilation shafts or something to find way around the creature. Generally worth checking out if you like testing horror games. [/h1]

Before the Dawn: SENARA Prologue creates its horror experience through tension and atmosphere rather than relying entirely on loud scares or constant danger. Instead of immediately throwing players into nonstop encounters, the game slowly builds unease by placing them inside an isolated environment where uncertainty becomes one of the greatest threats. Players step into the role of someone infiltrating the SENARA, a massive vessel connected to mysterious activities and disturbing secrets. Once things begin falling apart, survival becomes the primary goal, and what follows is a journey through a place where every corridor and shadow feels increasingly unsettling. One of the game's most effective qualities is the setting itself. The SENARA does not feel like a typical horror location designed purely around exaggerated visual horror elements. Instead, the environment feels grounded and believable. Steel hallways, cramped rooms, and industrial sections create an atmosphere that feels authentic rather than theatrical. This realistic design works surprisingly well because familiar places can often create stronger discomfort than locations filled with unrealistic monsters and impossible …

confusing asf, got dizzy playing this.

This is awesome. Really cool atmosphere, just the right amount of nook and cranny hunting, a really really good map (as long as you look around and interact with them on the walls of the ship) that keeps you from wasting time searching where nothing is. i would've liked a way to defend myself over just sneaking around but thats just a personal preference, ymmv there and i have zero issues recommending this to indie horror fans if curious. the premise and tone is really unsettling to me for some reason and is a religious horror in a flavor i haven't quite encountered yet lol.

Great graphics and music, I feel like there should be a sanity location warning, as in the places where ur sanity starts slip. Also maybe an item that can stun the monster so u have time to put some distance as ur stamina runs out quick. In addition, don't just throw me on the boat with no context, no story, no intro, it can be like a memory or a dream before he wakes up. and for the love of I need something to defend myself man, I'd be panicking and there is nothing i can do but run. like that room where the crank is i could have picked up one of the bats if possible, there were so many bats and its a dead end so come one. But overall, its a great game, i recommend giving it a try. The game is well made and has potential to become more. I understand that its in development and there r things that need refining. oooh one last thing, if u could add coop or online capabilities it could be really fun to try to finish the missions with friends, one could be bait while the others move around but if the teammates don't come to the rescue when they r out of stamina........gg.

This was a fun game. It was annoying though. I beat the game with one achievement left. I tried loading the game from last save point and it wouldn't load and would just freeze. I managed to load it again after uninstalling and reinstalling the game.
