From the first minutes I was fascinated

From the first minutes I was fascinated. The "dual world" mode is really well done and the soundtrack is spot on. Only one thing I'm not appreciating, the "fixed" camera. It was certainly a deliberate choice so as not to lose certain scenes within the game, but at certain moments I would have liked to have a better look at the surrounding landscape. It would be nice if a photo mode was integrated into the game. My rating 8/10

Wow, just wow

Wow, just wow. I wasn't expecting too much from this game but I gotta admit that it blew me off. The story was amazing, better than a lot of high-budget games from bigger studios. The writing is awesome, love the dialog lines carefully placed and thought that make you feel the emotions of the characters resulting in an immersing experience. It had it time to develop and go through all the steps resulting in a rewarding and surprising end. Another thing that blew me off was the gameplay and the camera techniques, the split-screen mechanic is amazing, I have never seen it, and the camera technique that is fixed based on the scene gives the game a unique personality and I loved it. The graphics and animations are good, wish that the lip sync was better because the characters are so beautifully modeled and a good lip sync is all that is missing. I have to mention the music that is setting up the mood in all of the scenes the themes of the soundtrack are well chosen and gives a nice touch of personality to every scene. As a huge fan of the Silent Hill franchise i got to say that the game really had that creepy vibe of silent hill and i love it for that. For the first big project of Bloober Team it is amazing and i recommend everyone to try it!!
