Where as Scorn hardly had any story and the combat felt like a hamfisted element.Necrophosis does not have much of actual gameplay at all besides puzzles and goes way too much into just loredumping the player.

That latter part probably sullied my experience the most, What the game is about is given away way too early and not much is left to interpretation. It's more fairly priced and wasn't hyped up to be be this big thing years in development like Scorn, but If I had to recommend one it would still probably be Scorn over this.

Really wanted to like this after enjoying Scorn so much. Unfortunately the game has really awful UI that makes it hard to interact with.

The text is almost unreadable at a couch distance due to the serif font and no text scaling options, multiple menus are broken or have unusable interactions when using a controller, most often the cursor highlight just disappearing. Pick-up interactions kinda suck cus the only indication that there is some kind of additional interaction is a tiny text change in the UI at the bottom of the screen and rotating the object always requires a trigger input. But what was the final nail in the coffin in me asking for a return was just how poorly conveyed the in-world interactions were. Spent about 40 min of my 70m playtime wandering around the second area just desperately trying to find whatever hidden interaction was blocking my progression. I still want to see this world and experience the story, but I feel like my time would be better spent watching an edited let's play instead of trying to figure out what invisible button I need to press to dispense the next dialogue.

The art, sound design and atmosphere are pretty solid, animation is okay, lighting was off in some places, and postprocessing transitions were pretty rough in places, but the UI/UX and interaction conveyance towards the player is what killed the experience for me.

What a beautifully made game. Look into any direction of each level and your left in awe. Very creepy, eerie and atmoshperic. Lore was cool, but some parts felt a bit repetitive.
