The game is in the horror genre so you can expect that the aesthetic leans toward dark and creepy. It does get a little bit too dark making the setting difficult to make out. However, it’s nothing so extreme that the game becomes unplayable. It might be recommended to increase your PC’s brightness when playing this game, but it would defeat the purpose of the game which is to be as creepy as possible.dark and creepyThe biggest contributor to the creepy factor is the music. It’s very appropriate to the setting and aesthetic. Some tracks are even catchy and nice to listen to on their own. The sound effects also get distorted and weird when you encounter something scary lurking in the dark. Thankfully, this game doesn’t try to cheapen the experience by littering the gameplay with jump scares. Instead, they try to increase the suspense by making the ambiance as chilling as possible and they do that through the music and sound effects really well.Gameplay and MechanicsThe gameplay of Lone Survivor is pretty standard. It’s a 2D side scroller where you have to interact with elements on the screen and look for clues and resources throughout the game. Lone Survivor has multiple endings and your choices in the game affect the outcome of your playthrough. Factors such as how much you eat and sleep, to your propensity for violence throughout the game all contribute to what kind ending you’re going to get.2D side scrollerhas multiple endingsThe controls are intuitive since you’ll just need the buttons for moving and interacting.
