Story

84 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The creepy horror/thriller atmosphere grips you from the very first moment and, combined with an interesting story and voice-acted dialogues, makes Gorky 17 a relatively memorable gaming experience.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
69 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Luckily, you can increase your characters' accuracy later on, and the new weapons that don't require ammo help me to conserve ammo.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
68 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The exploring component is great, with few easy puzzles, and good hidden items, like a nice character in Museum’s roof.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The atmosphere of Gorky 17 is uneasy and haunting, you explore desolate streets and abandoned buildings as portrayed by some beautiful, but typically industrial, backgrounds all accompanied by a fitting soundtrack.
