A minimalist horror masterpiece. Faith manages to execute dread and anxiety within an incredibly retro package, and it surprised me! Not an overly frightening game, but it definitely has its moments. Faith mainly consists of moments of exploration, but there are also combat segments that translate the over-the-top exorcisms seen in films into gameplay, and I was pretty stunned by how well it worked. I do believe this has been done before, but regardless, Faith does it very well.
This is a throwback to games of the 80s, so the art isn't necessarily amazing, but it is admirable how much it does with so little. I think the part of this game that really stands out, visually, are the rotoscoped cutscenes that play before big moments. They are lovingly crafted, and can be chilling to watch. A lot of work was put into them, and its hard not to admire them. It also fits pretty nicely with the rest of the game.
Faith, to me, feels like a lost game from over 30 years ago, that was dug up and shared online. A wonderful tribute to retro home consoles, as much as it is to horror classics like The Exorcist. Give it a go if you're itching for a fun, spooky time.
