A game that is not as innovative as you would hope. It is very old school. Nevertheless, this is a real horror-game and we can guarantee that you will freak out. It may be old school, but it is still a very good game that will blow you away.
This is probably the most horrifying experience in videogames, ever!
On one side, you have linear gameplay, at times simplistic game design and plenty of clichés. On the other – an exciting opportunity to star in a very cool horror ‘movie’.

Une expérience horrifique difficile à oublier tellement l'ambiance de terreur est présente dans tout le jeu. Ajouté à cela, un personnage passif qui ne peut pas se défendre et qui est obligé de fuir à chaque rencontre avec un ennemi. Imaginez vous devoir fuir tout en passant par des pièces et des couloirs sanglants et rencontrer des psychopathes à chaque porte. Le gameplay est bien ficelé, l'histoire et la narration le sont moins, mais il est pardonné tant l'expérience en vaut le coup.

Depois de zerar Outlast, posso dizer que é uma experiência que vai muito além de um simples jogo de terror. Joguei praticamente sem ajuda, no modo difícil, e isso fez toda a diferença. A sensação de vulnerabilidade é constante — você não luta, você foge. E isso muda completamente a forma como você encara cada momento. O medo não vem só de sustos, mas da pressão contínua, da falta de controle e da necessidade de tomar decisões rápidas. A imersão é absurda. Em vários momentos, não parecia que eu estava jogando, mas tentando escapar de um lugar onde eu realmente não queria estar. O jogo cumpre perfeitamente seu papel: te deixa tenso, desconfortável e, ao mesmo tempo, curioso para continuar. Por outro lado, nem tudo é perfeito. O gameplay, apesar de funcional, é simples e às vezes repetitivo. E em alguns momentos, a intensidade ultrapassa o limite do “divertido” e entra em um nível de agonia que pode cansar. Ainda assim, o impacto emocional e a experiência como um todo compensam. É o tipo de jogo que você não joga apenas para terminar, mas para sentir — e dificilmente será esquecido.

Red Barrels have done a fantastic job combining an intensely disquieting setting, a unique visual look, and an incredibly effective camera gimmick to ensure that nobody escapes Mount Massive without a few nightmares.

It’s stressful and terrifying in a way that most recent horror games can’t match... I say play it in a brightly lit room surrounded by pictures of kittens. The heart can only take so much.

Uno de los únicos juegos que realmente lo llamo "Survival Horror", su atmósfera y ambientación es increíble, me sigue asustando y es lo que busco en un juego así, que me dé miedo, no sólo eso, sino que tampoco me agarre de la mano poniendo pintura para saber dónde ir. Te pone a prueba para saber hasta donde podes llegar y cuando lo terminas, sentís ese alivio de saber que sobreviviste aunque no sepas cómo y que te premia por saber manejarte en situaciones bajo presión.

Without a doubt one of the best horror games currently available, I played it screen-streamed with my friend and it's undoubtedly an incredible horror game.

A good horror game, with plenty of chills and a very effective setting.

A little but perfectly accessible, even greatly playable game. It puts forward its hero protagonist and his helplessness, its whimsical hazard, and its great number of properly placed scripts. While playing Outlast you will relive plenty of convulsive experiences, but you will chuckle at the very same time. Gameplay aside, if the game was a bit more creative, it could get a better grade.

Lights off and headphones on is a must. Allow yourself to fall deep in Red Barrels’ asylum and the reward is a frightening descent into the bowels of man’s search for greatness. The sound design is exceptional – even more so when considering this is a lower budget production – and the weight of the world is tight.

Outlast gets the visuals and sound right, has some great mechanics, and will provoke feelings of dread and horror in even the most jaded gamer. It's cat-and-mouse sequences are a repetitive dirge, but elsewhere this is a strong first offering.

As a budget Steam release, Outlast offers some cheap thrills for fans of the survival horror genre. Unfortunately its underwhelming visuals, combined with Red Barrel Games’ over-reliance on jump-scares ahead of more psychological frights, made my experience with it feel similar to walking through a haunted house: It’s scary, but not in a very clever way.

Outlast is masterfully disturbing and terrifying, and one of the most successful horror games of its time. However, the objectives are presented in a confusing and open-ended way, which substantially increases its gameplay time.

the game is good but I got lost several times and died several times also due to the fact that it doesn't have a guided objective other than that the game is excellent

Ortalama ve altı seviyede bir yapımdı benim için. Sonradan oynamak olumsuz etki bırakıyor.
