A Very Fresh Take On The Teen Survival Horror Genre Where No One Is The Useless Damsel In Distress.
This review is for the PlayStation 2 version

This game was a pretty fun survival horror game. The graphics are really good, even for today. The story could sound a little cliche it has that B-Movie feel to it. but I like it how it is. The controls are just perfect, The game has tank controls very similar to resident evil one on the PS1 but with a little tweak for the inventory. I don't know why people complain about it though. The monster design is awesome, and the music? Damn it has an awesome soundtrack. The only thing I don't like about the game is the co-op mode its not fun due to the limited resources but that's it. I highly recommend the game if you are into horror games.

Morcys's review of ObsCure

I feel guilty for taking so long to try this game. I really enjoyed it; it gave me several scares that nearly gave me a heart attack, and the soundtrack is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere and graphics were a pleasant surprise. My only criticism is that it's quite short, it took me just over three hours to beat it. but man, what a game.

Jogo bom, mundo aberto apesar de linear, puzzle simples mas legais de se resolver, história simples mas não é chata. Mais ação do que terror, mas ainda sim conseguiu me deixar tenso em diversos momentos

This is absolutely scratching that itch I've been having for horror gaming. I miss old clunky games like this. It's also surprisingly good, given when it was released. It holds up well.

I really liked the mechanics of the game where each student has his skill for situations. Of the 5 students only two survived even on easy difficulty. I didn't find the plot nothing special. In some situations I found camera angles a bit frustrating.

There aren't that many co-op horror games out there, so when I saw Obscure for the PS2 my sister and I were VERY surprised. Glad to say, my sister and I got a kick out of this game. Think Resident Evil but just with 2 players :). We played this A LOT when I was middle school xD.
