Signalis is a horror survival game that places you on an offworld planet to find out what happened to the base there.

PROS

  • Creepy atmospere
  • Plenty to explore
  • Multiple endings
  • Deadly enemies
  • A few nice jump scares

CONS

  • Puzzles can be very obtuse
  • In game map not very helpful
  • Constant inventory management
  • Enemies not very varied

In all, Signalis is an effective horror-survival game with an engaging mystery and decent combat. There’s a lot to explore, but it can be very easy to lose tp your bearings. While having limited inventory space does add a layer of tension and strategy, it can also become annoying when you find an important item and can’t pick it up without backtracking to a save room where a storage chest is located. The enemies aren’t very varied, but they can be very deadly, and they often come back, leading to some effective jump scares. There are multiple endings depending on the choices you make, which gives it some replayability. It’s reasonable price ($19.99 USD) making it an easy purchase for horror fans.

8/10 stars
