What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Necrophosis has great visuals, interesting lore and good world-building that unfortunately gets drastically undercut at the game's finale thanks to a lack of meaningful choices/consequences and some oddly repetitive game mechanics at what should have been the emotional climax.
I really enjoyed the literary references, the poetic style of speaking used by the NPCs, the various dilemmas brought up throughout the narrative.
Amazing concept & even better storyline, simplistic gameplay for maximum atmosphere, gorgeous artwork/design heavily inspired by H.R.
The sound effects and background music made the atmosphere even stronger and pulled me into the story.
Great experience: atmospheric walking mixed with reasonable puzzle difficulty, layered with an awe-inspiring artistic rendition of chaos and decay; puzzle challenges start with an awareness curve but become more comprehensive as the story progresses; Reading the lore and items do a great job setting the tone; and the writing feels well thought out, grasping at a greater beyond.
I played at 4K all max settings and DLSS turned off – I was getting well over 100 fps.
