Description

Gloomwood is a stealth horror FPS that follows your mysterious abduction to a forgotten, twisted Victorian metropolis in the midst of a horrifying transformation. Wield your canesword and take to the shadows as you uncover the accursed mystery hidden within the fog.

The producers of DUSK, AMID EVIL, ULTRAKILL and FAITH bring you a frightening, gothic immersive sim full of haunted streets, dark tunnels and decadent mansions.

  • An intricate, hand-crafted city with freeform exploration - from towering rooftops down to hidden passages, the routes you take and paths you make, are your choice.

  • A detailed stealth and sound system that tracks your light visibility and propagates noise accurately through the world. Tread lightly. Or prepare to get loud.

  • A unique arsenal to meet any situation - a stealthy canesword, six-shot revolver, folding shotgun, hand-placed traps, rope-slinging harpoon rifle and more.

  • In-depth player interactivity, from leaning to eavesdrop, peeking through door cracks, checking the bullets in your firearms and mantling onto ledges.

  • A mob of ghastly denizens and monsters with acute senses, like the sharp-clawed Crowmen and the fearsome, cadaver-seeking Corpse Duster.

  • Gloomwood is full of objects to pick up, throw, climb, smash and use to your advantage.
    There is more to this city than you can possibly imagine...

This game is phenomenal with a lot to love, but it has some rough edges that just give me the ick. Really great when you sink your teeth into it, but I can't even disagree with some of the negative reviews when the game's three years into EA and still has some amateur fumbles inside. I'd like to write about those fumbles real quick before I can get to praising the game proper, because the devs really need to fix

Its basically a mix of resident evil 2 dishonored and thief, the content that is available so far is incredible the guns feel good to use and the level design has that resident evil feel where it loops back onto itself making exploration very satisfying.

Don't really wanna write a review for games still in-development, but I feel the need to commend the devs on their efforts here. If you're like me, and pretty pessimistic about the state of modern Immersive Sims; being way too handholding and dumbed down, almost feeling like they're playing themselves? Then this is the remedy. Gloomwood gets pretty much everything right that I want from a game like this. It has very
