About The Broken Dawn

The Broken Dawn is an atmospheric first-person survival horror game about an abandoned city that fell victim to a secret experiment on human consciousness.You play as Thomas Cale, a video blogger who went with friends to the isolated city of Greyfield for a new video. After a car accident, he wakes up alone. His friends are gone, and the city is filled with madmen and mutants.


Plot

The government once conducted experiments in Greyfield on the impact on people's psyche using radio signals. The O.N.Y.X corporation turned this project into a weapon, using a special powder that causes hallucinations, madness, and mutations.The city was completely isolated, and the truth hidden. Now Thomas must uncover the secret of Greyfield, find his friends, and escape a place where reality and madness are intertwined.


Gameplay

The player explores the abandoned city of Greyfield, entering empty houses, a hospital, and other gloomy locations. As he progresses, he will find notes and items revealing the history of the events that occurred here, as well as solving puzzles that open the way forward.Madmen and mutants are encountered along the way. Some enemies can be avoided by hiding in closets and under beds, while others can be engaged in combat using a limited arsenal of weapons. Each shot can attract the attention of new opponents, so the player has to choose between risk and caution.Resources are strictly limited, and the tense atmosphere requires constant concentration. The hero's camera serves not only as a light source but also as a tool for immersion in what is happening, allowing you to capture the strange and frightening phenomena of the city.

Survival

There are no safe places in Greyfield. Any sound or careless action can be your last. Only attentiveness, stealth, and composure will help you reach the end.Can you uncover the truth and leave the cursed city—or will you become another of its victims?

✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's engaging graphics, solid horror gameplay with effective jump scares, and compelling lore, along with noting the developer's responsiveness to issues. However, some players report frustrating bugs that block progression, particularly with the "Shut Off The Steam" objective not registering as complete even after being fulfilled, which persists even after restarting and clearing the cache.

This is a great game! I decided to buy it on a whim and played it. The graphics are better than I expected and the gameplay is not boring. I'm intrigued about the lore as well. I had hit a road block at one point, and the developer was really helpful and receptive with dealing with my issue. Not only is it a great game, it has a great developer. I will update my review once more when I finish the game.

This has been a great game from what I have played so far. It has fulfilled the jump scares that I enjoy playing in a horror game and has kept me interested in the game and lore within. However, when I get to the "Shut Off The Steam" objective, i complete this task for finding the valve and turning off the steam and I am unable to move forward. Even though I have completed that objective, it still is saying it needs to be completed. I have restarted the game and exited the game fully to see if the objective would resolve and it has not worked. I have also restarted my progress from the beginning and I am still experiencing the same issue.
