How easy are personal demons to exorcise? The only downside to the game is how bad the combat is, killing anything is an exercise in attrition, but it could be argued that it was intentional. Game play wise it shares far more with Resident Evil than it does with Until Dawn, but if one of your favorite parts of Until Dawn was its effect use of tension, then get ready to wear a hole in your couch with this one. I loved the first one, they way it used technical limitations to its advantage, but its sequel was better designed, better written and far more terrifying. Silent Hill 2 is probably the best horror game ever made. Much of the gameplay revolves around you using Aiden, the name of the being, to spy on others and interact with the environment. Most of the time you play as Ellen Paige’s character, Jodie, a girl with a supernatural being bound to her. Overall it is the best one of these that Quantic Dream has produced, though with a new game in the works it may have to step aside. It has more interactivity, more endings and more branching paths. Lauded for the motion captured performances of Ellen Paige and Willem Dafoe, Beyond: Two Souls is a much more gamer friendly experience. Our final David Cage game on the list, and probably the best acted of all of them.
GAMES LIKE UNTIL DAWN FOR MAC PS3
There are plenty of games for the PS3 that are well worth playing, and they’re pretty cheap these days too.
GAMES LIKE UNTIL DAWN FOR MAC PS4
Heavy Rain is a great game, the graphics were absolutely astounding, but it was limited to release on Sony consoles, the first version on PS3 and the recent PS4 re-release. The action sequences are again mostly QTEs, with the game playing with other genres for brief sections. The game play should be familiar to those who have played any of the other games on this list, you move your current protagonist around the environment and hit context sensitive buttons to interact. More of a film noir than a supernatural thriller, Heavy Rain takes much of its narrative influence from films like “Se7en” and “Saw”.
That game takes many of its cues from the three interactive dramas produced by Quantic Dream, so few other companies have been able to match the originals in terms of quality. The first three games on this list are almost exactly like Until Dawn. If you’re in the mood for something similar, why not check these gems out. The branching paths are interesting, but lack substance, trying to write for the sheer number of alternative choices would be staggering, so a lot of the game is written to accommodate for X character being dead.
I’m not a big fan of quick time events, but when the result of a failed QTE is the death of a character, which is kinda the point of characters in horror movies, I don’t feel nearly so bad.
This game succeeds where Cage’s games failed by using the narrative tropes of the slasher genre to create win-win scenarios.
The focus is on branching story paths rather than tight well designed game play, you take on the role of a group of teenagers out in the woods for a cliche ridden thrill ride of death. Do you love slasher flicks like “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and “Scream”? Ever wish there was a game that could capture the spirit of those films? Well look no further than Until Dawn, the 2015 survival horror interactive drama game! Taking a leaf from game director David Cage’s book, Until Down is a suspenseful cinematic experience.
