Alisa: Developer's Cut

Casper Croes and his crew understood the assignment. Alisa is pure Playstation One-style 90s survival horror in the best way possible. There is so much love and passion put into this game, and a true understanding of tone and aesthetics and gameplay that made those games so much fun. If you grew up with these games like I did, I cannot recommend Alisa enough.

Alisa: Developer's Cut" offers a fresh take on classic survival horror, combining campy storytelling, retro graphics, and engaging gameplay. This console port introduces players to a blend of nostalgic and modern elements, including tank controls, a unique currency system, and enhanced features like auto-aim and New Game+. It's a compelling experience for fans and newcomers to the genre, delivering both challenge and charm in a modernized package.

Alisa is a real standout in the world of indie horror games, both in terms of aesthetic and gameplay. It's very tough when you first start in the mansion but once you get to grips with the controls and enemy patterns it becomes relatively easy to work through the game. It ends with plenty of scope for a sequel and there are many unanswered questions so hopefully one appears. Still, in the here and now, if you like the look of the screenshots then I can heartily recommend playing in this dollhouse.

You can't go wrong with a game that channels the heart and soul of PS1 horror, and Alisa does just that. Certain oddities of the genre piggyback on the experience, but fans won't be deterred by that. The humor mixed with dread and unease make Alisa a great game to explore, even with its limitations and minor issues.

This game shows how a blast from the past can affect us: it helps us understand that some things don't age well, but it also works as a memento of a fascinating, innovative era. Recommended for tough guys and survivalists of a bygone era.

Alisa is a PS1 era horror game made today with no compromises in its period correctness, for better or worse.

Alisa: Developer's Cut is an amazing homage to the roots of the Resident Evil franchise. Recreating the feeling to a near-perfect T. However, emulating a game from the '90s so closely means it comes with all the problems from games of the time. Big fans of the genre will definitely enjoy their time, but casual horror fans may struggle to get invested.

Great game! Very fun! Very cute! I love Resident Evil likes! This one is very good

Greaat game! I really like it,s fun and very cool. Hard though just like in the old PS1 days!

Very fun game with fun elements. Might be outdated for some, but I think it's a great time! Plays like an old Resident Evil game!

Slow, horrible and clunky! Enemies are too fast for your reloading speed, therefore you die over and over again! awful controls, stressful.. would not recommend

Take the green scores with a grain of salt. A poorly designed, overrated trash that tries to imitate classic RE games even though it has none of the clever design features of the PS1 era capcom games. Enemies are too fast, too powerful and can easily stun lock you with repeated attacks. Slow reloading speed makes things ever worse. If you encounter more than one enemy, you are screwed. Also, WHO THE HELL PUTS ENEMIES IN A SAVE ROOM??!?! Just avoid. There are much better RE clones in the market.
