    Silver Chains feels like an homage to every popular horror game and film. While this isn't necessarily a negative, I feel like the potential and individuality of the game was lost amidst the references and tropes, making it feel forgettable. If you have a love for horrors, then I believe you’ll thoroughly enjoy Silver Chains, but I’m not so sure you’ll remember it.

    The game is a total mixed bag, but most of the bad parts are brought on by the performance issues from being on Nintendo Switch. It just seems like the game wasn’t fully optimized well for the system. If you plan on playing the game portable, you may not notice the problems as much, but the framerate still got to me at times, even in portable mode. Overall, Silver Chains is a decent survival horror game, but I’d recommend another version unless you plan on playing in portable mode all the time.

    I can't in good conscience recommend Silver Chains. It's not for a lack of effort; I'm sure that the development team worked very hard to ensure their vision. But it's a small package, and the Nintendo Switch isn't the best way to play the title. If you're looking to spend time in a fright-filled mansion that has an evil resident, there are other ways to scratch that itch. If you're looking for a scary game to play while safely tucked under your blankets, this would do the job for a couple of hours.

Seriously, it made my skin feel weird. It wasn't the jump scares or the somewhat familiar haunted house (tho i do absolutely love a classic ghost story, as they have such a romance to them), it was the perversion of otherwise familiar sounds. The same way that amnesia used sounds more than graphics to work it's magic. I also tend to prefer a slow burn over ridiculous gore. If you're similar in your tastes and not jaded by a constant influx of blood and parts horror, give this a try. You'll likely be pleasantly surprised.… Expand
