A new psychological horror adventure game from the creators of the successful Decay series: Sam is an addict who ends up in an institution named “Reaching Dreams”, hoping to kick his drug problem and sort out his miserable life. But during the first night, something goes horribly wrong and he gets stuck in an endless nightmare… Decay – The Mare is a 3D psychological horror adventure and homage to the Resident Evil and Silent Hill games, as well as to horror adventure games like Phantasmagoria, The 11th Hour and Gabriel Knight. For the first time the compelling, high-tension Adventure is available in one package, including an exclusive third chapter that will bring Sam’s journey to an end. Decay’s developer Shining Gate Software is a small indie studio located in Stockholm, Sweden. The studio is best known for their work with DICE and Electronic Arts on the Battlefield franchise and for their own Decay series, released on multiple platforms.

Critic Reviews
AbsoluteXbox
By Matt RushtonAs with any re-release, this game is going to appeal to some and leave others underwhelmed. For me, it was fun to pick up the game again, and have all 4 chapters available on release; if you like horror games you will find a deeper story here than perhaps you expect. So what it all comes down to is this, was re-releasing Decay a brilliant or brash decision… honestly there’s argument for both!
TheXboxHub
By Gareth BrierleyIt’s a game that I enjoyed a lot, but I can only fully recommend it if you’re willing to take a chance with a slightly offbeat world.
Generación Xbox
By Antonio Sánchez VázquezDecay: The Mare is the story of a game of 'Xbox Live Indie Games program' that became big and took the leap to the next generation. A mixture of terror and adventure that will catch your eye with its surrealistic storyline, despite its outdated visual appearance.

By Adam DilevaIf you were a fan of Myst back in the day and long to have that old school point and click adventure back, then you'll most likely enjoy The Mare, even if the horror genre isn't your thing.
