"The best parts of Alien Isolation and Resident Evil's first-person entries have merged with Silent Hill's rusty and foggy DNA to create an original nightmarish take on the series. Silent Hill: Townfall is a breath of fresh air for the genre and a must-play for horror fans."

Read full review →"The new chapter in the franchise proves, once again, that Silent Hill remains much more than monsters and scares; it's a story laden with guilt, despair, grief, greed, and rage, built to provoke reflection as much as fear. From beginning to end, the game keeps the player intrigued. Each new environment, each message on the CRT, and each encounter with its creatures fuels a constant feeling of confusion and unease, while psychological terror brilliantly takes over the experience."
