   Очень хорошо. Лучшее из того, во что я успел сыграть за последние 2 года точно.

   Все ещё имеются некоторые проблемы с анимацией, но их уже заметно меньше. Хорошая локализация, не прогнувшаяся под толеpaстoв. Отличный, интригующий сюжет, несколько обескураживающая концовка, но все имеет логику. Отлична показана связь событий, происходящих с главным героем.
   
   Играется свежо, лучше чем у предшественника. Все плюсы Man of Medan, но ещё добавляется немалая их куча.
   
   Так как релиз был 31 октября 2020, это был неплохой день ужасов)… Expand

   I already played Until Dawn(PS4 Pro) in the past, Man of Medan(Xbox One X) almost one year ago and now Little Hope(Xbox One X) on the releaseI already played Until Dawn(PS4 Pro) in the past, Man of Medan(Xbox One X) almost one year ago and now Little Hope(Xbox One X) on the release of the game(30 th October 2020). Maybe it's because of the setting the game that I may have liked the game more than some people, but I would highly recommend this game!
   As always, Supermassive Games knows how to build a scary, gloomy, highly detailed atmosphere (the graphics are extremely good) and with a very well-crafted soundtrack. The story intrigues you to the end, having an ending that, although it may not please some, explains all the details that remained unexplained throughout the game and give an ending to the story.
   I thought the game flowed better than Man of Medan, with improved graphics and movements, at the same level or even better than Until Dawn (PS4 Exclusive).
   With a lot of re-playability valuable, I would recommend to anyone that likes story-driven games, or anyone who wanna have a different experience from the usual AAA games.

   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ''Little Hope'', psychological horror at its finest, is Supermassive's best effort yet. The mysteries, unanswered questions and never-ending scares will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. Piece by piece you puzzle the story together, but there's always that feeling of uncertainty. ''Am I right? No... it must be this other theory. Or not? Let's take another look at my clues.'' You quickly become attached to every single one of the characters, as truly unpleasant as they start off, and when they meet their demise at the hands of their own demon you simply feel bad. Until the very end. That big plot twist. The adventure of ''Little Hope'' is nothing more but a PTSD-driven schizophrenic episode of Anthony, who heavily struggles to deal with the deaths of his entire family at the start of the game. It's easy to brush it off as a farce, as a moment where you think to yourself ''Oh, but none of my choices mattered? None of these deaths mattered?'' until you truly look back on the story and how it all ties together. Because it's so much bigger than that, there's so much more to it. Yes, the family was dead from the very start. But it's a greater story about battling inner demons, Anthony's demons. The witch trials? Nothing more but Anthony trying to find the right person to blame. Was it his mother? His sister? His dad perhaps? No, they all died innocently. We know Megan did it, but why? The abusive priest finally pushed her over the edge. It makes you feel empty and devastated in the most heartbreaking way, and a story with a purposeful ending does that. And at the same time it makes you think. Are people who do terrible things, because terrible things have been done to them, victims or villains? Little Hope is a big success in every aspect imaginable by making you question every single thing you have witnessed and done. It's more than just a scary slasher game with monsters and jumpscares for you to play on Halloween eve (with all respect to Until Dawn). It's social commentary filled with gutting emotion. A big step-up from the slightly underwhelming predecessor Man of Medan and it makes me beyond excited for what they come up with next.… Expand

   Little Hope, second installment of the anthology and first drop in the anthology.
   Their debut videogame, Until Dawn, remains unsurpassed evenLittle Hope, second installment of the anthology and first drop in the anthology.
   Their debut videogame, Until Dawn, remains unsurpassed even by themselves.
   
   *STORY: Four students and their teacher must try to escape from nightmarish apparitions that haunt them tirelessly through an impenetrable fog. Will they be able to do so?
   
   The script begins strong, with a very interesting prologue and a very successful initial setting.
   The problem is its linearity (the script is pattern after pattern and automatically spoils surprises) and above all the anticlimactic final level, which is so unexpected as well as ineffective and disappointing.
   I did like the end of the story, let's be clear.
   
   *GAMEPLAY*: There are still a few problems in this section: the camera usually works well most of the time, but the movement is still horribly rough.
   This time there is more gameplay variety, but nothing impressive.
   
   *GRAPHICS*: Artistically as well as usual (the atmosphere works very well, you have a bad time playing this game), but this time they have gone too far with the robotic and facial animations, which have worsened.
   
   *SOUND*: Many problems of localization (although I suppose that with future patches it will be fixed), but the Spanish dubbing, the soundtrack and sound effects are correct.
   
   *INNOVATION*: Little Hope is the first Supermassive Games **** not because it's a bad game or because the formula isn't innovating (which in itself doesn't have to be a bad thing), but because they are starting to fail at things they used to do well.
   The theme of witches today is not usually seen as much as before, it must be said.… Expand
