Game Details: In the desolate mountains of Colorado, horrors await inside Mount Massive Asylum. An abandoned home
In the desolate mountains of Colorado, horrors await inside Mount Massive Asylum. An abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, has been operating in complete secrecy… until now. Acting on a tip from an inside source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility, and what he discovers walks a terrifying line between science and religion, nature and something entirely different.In the desolate mountains of Colorado, horrors await inside Mount Massive Asylum.

"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." ... Read full review

"It’s certain not to appeal to all gamers, and while I often personally use games to relax and blow off steam, I find that after playing an hour or so of Outlast I’m too wound up to play anymore. Good thing then that the whole game is about five hours long." ... Read full review

"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." ... Read full review

"The initial hours, when played with a survivor’s unsure intent are electrifying, illuminating a slice of fast, animal terror. Before long, it settles into the mechanical, methodical, human realm, challenged by a few creative late-game curves. By all means check in, get a physical, but you might want to opt for outpatient care." ... Read full review

"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." ...

I felt the immersion within the first 10 minutes of game play. The best time to play is after nightfall. Lights off and undisturbed. Turn up the AC for a chilly room. Then blast the surround sound. You will not be disappointed. Expand

This is by far one of the most scariest games I've ever played. More than Amnesia the Dark Descent or the Slender.

To enjoy the max experience, use headset, crank it all the way up, turn off any lights, and play the game.

I actually had to turn this game offf several times because i couldn't handle the pressure. The build-up for all the jump scares are really nice.

Spędziłem przy nim niezapomniane 4 godziny i mam szczerą nadzieję, że twórcy już pracują nad kontynuacją. Z plusów gry warto wymienić chociażby niesamowity klimat i koncepcję wizualną etapów, gra potrafi również porządnie wystraszyć (zwłaszcza grając w nocy z założonymi słuchawkami^^). Jeśli chodzi o minusy to można by „przyczepić się” się do czasu poświęconego na jej ukończenie (chciałoby się grać zdecydowanie dłużej!) oraz do powtarzalności niektórych elementów rozgrywki (w stylu znajdź jakiś przedmiot, dźwignie, przełącznik itp.). Nie zmienia to jednak faktu, że jest to jedna z lepszych produkcji, w jakie miałem przyjemność zagrać w tym roku - i po prostu nie można przejść obok niej obojętnie. Jest również dowodem na to, jak dobra realizacja i prosta, lecz wciągająca rozgrywka mogą stać się przepisem na sukces…

Plusy:
+ niesamowity klimat grozy
+ koncepcja wizualna etapów
+ realizm otoczenia
+ stopniowe odkrywanie elementów fabuły
+ reakcje głównego bohatera
+ dobre udźwiękowienie
+ potrafi nieźle wystraszyć ;-)

Minusy:
– grafika mogłaby być ciut lepsza
– długość gry (4h to trochę za krótko)
– powtarzalność niektórych elementów rozgrywki
– zostawia pewien niedosyt!

There's not much to say. Fluent gameplay, interesting story, good atmosphere. The only downside for me was the fact, that it's not that scary.There's not much to say.
