Get Even
Jun 23, 2017 9 years ago
"Take a deep breath..." Try to remember: a girl, a chair, a bomb. Just keep... calm. Follow the voice into the depths of your memory. Relax... and search for the darkest memories in the deepest recesses of your mind. Can you find her? The clock is ticking... And this is just a part of the treatment.
What it’s like
Get Even offers a claustrophobic psychological horror experience where the player navigates the fractured psyche of Eddie Black through surreal, memory-based environments. The core loop blends first-person exploration with light puzzle-solving and occasional survival-shooter segments, all framed within a narrative about justice, guilt, and reality. Visually, the game excels in creating a disorienting, dreamlike atmosphere using stark lighting and distorted physics to represent mental instability. The audio design is particularly effective, using soundscapes to heighten tension and guide the player through abstract spaces. While the story unfolds through environmental storytelling and fragmented dialogue rather than exposition, it builds toward a dramatic, thought-provoking conclusion that lingers long after play. The experience is short but intense, prioritizing mood and thematic depth over mechanical complexity or replay value.
