Неожиданно, но очень приятное открытие. Игра простая - бей, беги, иногда вспоминай решения детских загадок, иногда вспоминай работу с консольными командами. В общем - приятный лутер-шутер с элементами квестов
很有心意的一款游戏,把之前就有的元素糅合在一起,却又不割裂,很和谐,也很好玩,元素设计也很和我胃口
nice

I like this game and I wish for the best on this game and developers
This has SO much potential honestly even it on it's own now it is a solid game. my only complaints are two things, 1. this could be on me for graphics or something but there was a delay on when my character would stop accelerating, wasn't a big deal anyway. 2. I would often run into dead bodies or boxes while fleeing from big enemies which would slow me and get me caught (this is before i realized running was borderline useless and dodging gave I-frames) But this was great I really look forward to seeing what else can come from this game. (p.s. I wanna see all in on the horror & atmosphere ^w^)
优秀,特别是在第2关调整天线有一个小房间有个电脑,上面有一些关于本次事件的图片和文件,我的天,这游戏我太喜欢了

good
EMPTY SHELL: PROLOGUE es un 10/10. Un survival horror roguelite que logra atraparte desde el primer minuto. La ambientación industrial en esa isla japonesa es asfixiante, y la sensación de estar entrando a algo que no entendés del todo está perfectamente lograda. La historia te empuja a seguir, pero lo que realmente brilla es la jugabilidad: tensa, desafiante y adictiva. Cada intento se siente distinto, cada decisión importa. Si te gustan los juegos que te mantienen en alerta constante y te hacen sentir incómodo de la mejor manera posible, este es para vos.
