About the story
Marianne, a medium hounded by visions, lives and interacts across two worlds: the real one and the spirit world. Haunted by the vision of a child’s murder, she travels to an abandoned hotel resort, which many years ago became the stage of an unthinkable tragedy. There she begins her search for difficult answers. As a medium with access to both worlds, she has a wider perspective and can see more clearly that there’s no one simple truth to what others perceive. Nothing is what it seems, everything has another side.

Critic Reviews
Softpedia
By Cosmin VasileAll in all, The Medium is a good game, but not revolutionary and certainly not the new king of the genre. The story and atmosphere will stay with you long after finishing it, but the gameplay has a lot of room for improvement. If you prioritize a good story and a masterfully crafted atmosphere The Medium will not disappoint.

By Sina GolabzadeAlthough The Medium tells a kind of by-the-numbers supernatural story, it still gives you a great mystery well-worth solving. The music and sound design heightens every moment without actually overwhelming the other aspects of the game and the unique visual style which masterfully utilizes the contrast between two very different worlds, helps the gameplay reach higher levels of providing an immersive experience.

By Adam CarrOverall, The Medium left me with feelings of general frustration. Not at the quality of the game, or the mechanics themselves, but the length of the ride. The game is simply too long and the vast majority of my issues are a result of the core game growing stale, or the story being broken up by long stretches of nothing. All that being said, I had a good time with The Medium. It’s not something I’d recommend people rush out and buy at full price, but it’s certainly a game worth experiencing.

By Lou SytsmaWith each game they release, Bloober Team continues to make strides, and The Medium is another such step. It has an intriguing story with intriguing characters. The game also has a nifty mix of old and new gameplaying elements.

ByThe Medium is a game with great potential and bad execution, as its issues and problems such as limited gameplay, easy puzzles and bad camera work eventually overtake its great story telling and engaging atmosphere.
