Critic Reviews

A work of psychological horror quite complete and that will not leave anyone indifferent, with updated graphics and new content. The definitive Layers of Fear experience.

Layers of Fear is an excellent repackaging of the original games, with a considerable graphical leap, benefitting the atmosphere and the level of immersion. We rediscover, enriched with new content, distressing stories and environments that seem sprung from the mind of a madman, with a gameplay that remains anchored to the narrative adventure mechanics. Even if we don't find major structural improvements, it remains recommended to lovers of the genre.

Layers of Fear is a very good horror adventure game with an original story, a great atmosphere and a compulsion that will pull you further and further. However, the game is quite short and can be run through in nearly an hour and a half of gameplay. If you put in a little effort and focus on exploring the various documents that lead more towards explaining the story and your character, you'll get to two hours of pure game time. It should be added, however, that this is only one playthrough. The game offers three different final endings, and therefore different renditions of the final image. So if you want to see all the available endings, then the game will keep you entertained for seven hours of your time.

Layers of Fear isn’t trying to be anything that it isn’t. Know that you’re walking into, a horror story told in a way to let your imagination get the better of you and build an increasingly scary setting.
