An underrated first-person horror standout built around an innovative, reactive melee combat system using improvised weapons against intelligent, aggressive enemies. Its oppressive crime-soaked atmosphere and a standout mannequin-filled department store level make it genuinely terrifying, though the story never reaches the heights of the Seven and Manhunter influences it draws from. Well worth experiencing for fans of first-person horror like Amnesia or Alien Isolation.

“Civvie credits Condemned with excellent atmosphere and sound design plus some effective combat moments, but criticizes its deliberately slow movement, artificial game-y design choices, janky mechanics like poor blocking and finicky grapple controls, and a poorly written story that relies too much on vague exposition and twin peaks references.”

“The reviewer finds this an 'all right' but overrated game with good atmosphere and story, held back by clunky combat, annoying stamina mechanics, and glitches. They recommend trying it but suggest Fear as a better alternative.”
