However, the atmospheric approach of the game provides for some genuinely terrifying heart jumping moments with enough gore to appeal to violence enthusiasts. The choice and consequence system is the key of the whole game, and though well woven into the storytelling, the consequence of certain choices often feel arbitrary. It is further marred by a formulaic approach that is filled with awkward dialogue, bugs, clunky controls, inconsistency etc. Nonetheless, the game suffers from some really clunky animation that is both bizzare and lifeless to look at, particularly with its deadpan facial animations. Unlike the previous entries in The Dark Pictures Anthology which were each inspired by supernatural evils, The Devil in Me can trace its roots in real historical events thus bringing an even greater sharpness to its overall horror, which can’t be done with the supernatural. Players will take control of the five film crew members throughout the game, with each character possessing their own personality traits and history with one another, though unfortunately none of the characters are particularly interesting. However, the facade soon falls off and it becomes clear that Du’Met in fact wishes to re-enact the horrifying events that took place at World’s Fair Hotel, filling the place with deadly traps, hidden rooms etc. They’re invited to an island by the mysterious Granthem Du’Met who offers them access to his large collection of real artifacts relating to Holmes. The fourth installment to Supermassive Entertainment’s The Dark Pictures Anthology, and serving as the conclusion to the first season, ‘The Devil In Me’ is an interactive survival horror game that narratively follows a film crew who are working on a documentary on serial killer H.H.
