The Secret World spinoff/prequel? This will be interesting.

Whoa, interesting.

I'm a touch worried though, since TSW has had financial problems since the day it launched. Hoping this isn't some desperate attempt to sell already-made assets or a flop that will worsen their situation.

It looks like a different take on the ip. A short single player story that isn't too taxing on the resources. My bet is on a Halloween release with some crosspromotion with TSW.

So...a walking simulator?

Hope they can pull it off. They know atmosphere and they know how to tell a horror story, just hoping it comes together correctly and that the gameplay isn't entirely "W to move forward, RMB to yell".

So, finally bought it.

Took me an hour and a half to finish. The first part of the game is rather pointless as you walk around the park and get on rides for no reason.

The second part is awesome Mind Screw.

Unfortunately, it is just "W to walk, RMG to yell". These games need to have something a little more to them. Puzzles to solve or something. The first part was just walking around the set pieces and listening to her wax philosophic. Atlantic Island Park is a creepy environment but the scares are just...typical. The second part had the right atmosphere and detail to make walking and looking at stuff engaging.

Biggest problem is that after playing The Secret World I already know both the park's backstory and the vague aftermath of this game.
