What players think
The recurring themes across 201 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
If you ever played System Shock and felt like if you got lost or took a break for too long you were just stuck and might as well restart then have no fear, this game comes with an objectives log that is exactly as clear as it needs to be while still leaving the player room for exploration and a very useful map.
If I could make a suggestion, I would love to ability to unload weapons, which would come in handy when you have two weapons that share ammo types.
Enough about the gameplay, it is high time to move on to Sonar Shock’s story as it is quite a treat.
Both of those, the scarcity and the danger of losing progress, combined with clumsy movement (you don't truly appreciate being able to strafe around corners until you can't do it anymore) and solid visuals/aesthetics, make for quite a spooky experience, and if you're as much of a coward as me, the game might take you upwards of 15-20 hours to beat.
It has it's own unique artstyle and sound design that keeps things tense.
