Read moreAfter legit hating The Quarry and Man of Medan, I reluctantly decided to dust this off of my backlog list just to get it out of the way. Boy did I enjoy this one so much more. Not as good as Until Dawn but still a very fun ride.

Definitely down to play again to see the different endings and character deaths.
