Greek Tragedy

It's a bit rough around the edges, but it has a lot of heart and interesting ideas. Feels more OG Alone in the Dark than Resident Evil, but still has its own thing going.

What a delightful little gem Greek Tragedy has far more to offer than I was anticipating; I was immediately drawn the the retro-inspired aesthetic, and I'm charmed by the illustration style used in the photos and character art. In general, as a huge fan of retro and retro-styled survival horror, I was an easy sell, but I did not anticipate finishing a run through the game and immediately feeling the need to dive in to puzzle out the other endings. The way the endings work reminds me of a game like Clock Tower more than the survival horrors you would anticipate most inspiration to be drawn from, and overall the game's runtime is short enough that it's very tantalising to dive back in and keep hunting for whatever puzzles you might have missed on a previous run. This game has a lot of heart, I'm very glad I stumbled upon it.

Retro horror at its finest! I'd best describe this game as "Alone In The Dark, but good". Greek Tragedy is one of those horror games that has something to offer players of all skill levels and interest in the genre. It's perfect for a casual playthrough to enjoy the story, and rewards players who want to get good at it with a bunch of challenges and layers you can peel back in subsequent playthroughs. The main story is a quick bite if you know what you're doing, about four hours if you're focused, but there's many more to be pulled out of it with game modes to be unlocked that change up the mechanics a bit to get better endings. I can't recommend it enough!

This was the best game i have ever tried pleas try it it was so fun

"it's a tragedy, alright"

Greek Tragedy is a bit of a love letter to tank controls - but a good one! It does feel like playing a retro game you used to play in childhood, and offers a variety of endings to reach while also keeping puzzles interesting and engaging for the player. Very immersive, not your usual all jumpscare horror that will get you feeling a bit stressed and most definitely uneasy during some segments, I was actually quite impressed with it. I did really enjoy playing this, despite struggling a bit to learn the controls properly - eventually I got better and after streaming the gameplay, tried taking on the ending I felt I didn't reach. I will have to say that I may have given up on reaching ending A for now, but do think reaching all of them is very possible :D I really loved the puzzles and the game enough so to look up that last ending and see the dev had released a full video on how to reach it, including some insane speedrunning videogaming (very cool). If you enjoyed this game, I would urge you to look it up as there is some interesting commentary on originally planned puzzles and other details!
