A brilliant inversion of survival horror: here the tentacled monster is you. Devouring scientists and tearing through security feels viscerally gleeful. Short and a touch repetitive late on, but joyously original.

An underrated gem

Flipping survival horror on its head by casting you as the tentacled monster remains a stroke of genius, carried by gloriously vicious gibbering-flesh animation. The game already has its fans, yet its level design often goes underrated, turning ventilation shafts into hunting grounds. What rewards a fresh look is its giddy tension: a treat for anyone who loves bloody, twitchy metroidvanias.
