I'm going down this road feeling bad 🎵
Of course it's super hard and rough and punitive and all.
But also ... It's surprisingly genuine and touching in a subtle way ?
I powered through because I was too stubborn not to see the ending. And I'm so glad I did ...
Insanely difficult though, not for everyone.
The only rage game I finished and maybe the only one, I loved it <3.

This game is so freakin fakin good man. I've always thought about a horror game based on the first world war and this is just what I was searching for. The setting is INSANELY GOOD and it is so immersive. I usually don't get tense with horror games almost at all but ngl this one is really really scary, and it's so cool to read the notes of the members of the bunker and see how they also just shit their pants. It's just all around a great game what can I say. I think the only part I did't totally like was how many of the items and storage worked; I was going back and forth to the checkpoint all the time and the rats were also a bit excessively annoying and don't really add much to the horror unlike the main beasts that we find trough the game.
Outside of that, really freaking recommended it is amazing.

As someone who's generally played Frictionals games for the storytelling and atmosphere, The Bunkers increased focus on gameplay/mechanics driven horror didn't immediately draw me in. There's a reason why A Machine for Pigs is my favorite Amnesia game. It gives me the illusion of being in danger without actually putting me in any and it does that while telling a really engrossing story which this game lacks.

On the other hand though, it's heavily inspired by Alien Isolation which is possibly my favorite horror game of all time. It doesn't quite reach the highs of Alien Isolation and lacks the visual fidelity and level variety of that game as well but I enjoyed it anyway.
