Summary

  • Rock, Paper, Shotgun highlights Agni: Village Of Calamity as an Indonesian survival horror game, influenced by early Resident Evil games and more specifically Resident Evil 7’s intimate and threatening human elements.
  • The game owes its claustrophobic camera work and threats from gruesome figures to set the scene, but its portrayal of an Indonesian cop, Agni, who explores a remote village where strange happenings occur, lends itself to the game’s Silent Hill-isms and its suspense.
  • Agni must confront her inner demons, dealing with guilt, fear, and trauma as she searches for her missing partner, adding a layer of mystery to the game.
  • While no release date has been set yet, interested players can still explore a 13-minute gameplay video on YouTube and Steam.
