What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Penumbra: Black Plague Gold Edition is a horror game with atmospheric moments and some solid puzzle design, though opinions are divided on its execution. Players praise the improved monster design and occasional moments of genuine dread, but criticize the brief campaign, simplified puzzles with obvious solutions, and the removal of combat that some found memorable from the first game. Most agree it works best as part of the full series rather than as a standalone experience, with some noting that the later Amnesia games did the formula better.
wasnt that bad but amnesia games are just this but way better1 found this helpful
Второй эпизод истории Фили и на сей раз вышло куда лучше. Чёрная Чума рассказывает о лаборатории и таинственном вирусе во льдах. Отличий от первого эпизода в целом немного, на сей раз конечно дать отпор местным монстрякам не представляется возможным, так как разрабы убрали всё оружие, оно и в целом ещё по первой части было очень неудобным. Изменили преследователей, что в целом было более правильным решением, потому что собаки из первого эпизода скорее были бесячими, нежели пугающими. Было приятно выйти наружу в одном из моментов, прям пробрало приятным холодком после тесных помещений лаборатории. Головоломки больная тема лично моя, но понятно что в хоррорах без этого никуда, пара запарных было, но в целом ладно, очень даже хорошо. (настройка плат для сервера мне в кошмарах сниться будет) А вот сюжет стал интереснее, да у нас по прежнему очень скудное наполнение, но новые лица (в том числе вумен) оказались недолгой но приятной компанией. Ес честно и голос в голове ГГ в виде Кларенса, или Кевина в нашем дубляже в целом неплохо дополнял общую картину, и смешно было наблюдать за его некоторыми реакциями на события и записки. А насчёт Амабель чел вовсе базанул "Сгоняй туда, принеси то…1 found this helpful
An exercise in tonal sabotage and one of the few games I felt that genuinely disrespected my time. What is presented is an overly brief campaign that ends as soon as it picks up, characters that serve only to detract from the experience, and a complete absence of aspects that made the first installment so memorable namely the puzzle solving and hand crafted notes that not only aided in realizing the setting but contributed to the story itself. Problem sequences are few and far between compared to the previous installment, there being 2 major puzzles I can recall, both of which have their solutions literally spelled out, and the remaining problem solving entirely environmental: moving crates and planks of wood. The atmosphere continues to exemplify the best of what its predecessor had to offer. Your new 'sidekick' does everything in its power to ruin it. It is best to experience that disparity in tone without any anticipations so I will at the very least ask rhetorically if the developers thought they were being funny or simply threw in the towel? In the first installment, Red was well introduced as this unknown and strange intercessor whose peculiar nature not only reflected h…1 found this helpful
Just like my review for Penumbra Overture. This game is a bit old even for me, but I got it from a bundle with Amnesia. Seems like a good game for those who are ok with old games.
Great beginning, but I cannot say anything more than that. I would truly recommend play the whole series because it's better as a whole, but it's a good game on its own.
idk better than Requirem maybe better than Overture idk
