Inner Chains has been a big opportunity wasted. It's true that it's a relatively small indie studio, that it's a project with a very specific vision and that has really new features that are also great, but the final result has more the look of an unfinished beta than a totally finished game.

Inner Chains is scary but not due to its atmosphere. Underneath a beautiful, haunting world hides a boring, simple shooter. Everything looks good at first glance but the devil is in the details. And the details are frustrating and full of bugs. The entire game looks and feels like an unfinished tech-demo.

Inner Chains is a title that you would expect to find in Early Access, given the many issues that affect it.

The art design is amazing, but that's pretty much all that it is. Performance and gameplay issues prevent this game from being something much better.

With its fantastic art direction Inner Chains could have been a great walker. Unfortunately what the developers decided to make is a lame, uninspired, awfully boring first-person shooter that has absolutely nothing to offer in terms of gameplay. [08/2017, p.72]

The game that works best when you are looking at screenshots. Deep black biomechanical surrealism can draw such incredibly impressive scenes. In all other considerations is the game fails.

In horror games, the greatest horror should not be that someone forces you to play it. With Inner Chains, it's the only thing you'd be afraid of. [Issue#277]

Inner Chains has gorgeous visuals and its artistic style is wonderful, but its poor gameplay makes it an almost unplayable game.

Inner Chains looks good, but beneath the veneer is a mess of bad mechanics and disappointing design. [Issue#263, p.69]
