Summary
Labyrinth Of The Demon King is a new horror game that has drawn comparisons to Silent Hill and Amnesia: The Dark Descent
It is set in mythical feudal Japan and the player’s objective is to hunt down a yokai boss that ambushed their lord
So far the reviewer’s favourite activity in the game is kicking and stamping on the game’s enemies, which proves a useful way to avoid combat fatality
The game is extremely faithful to the aesthetic of 90s horror games, meaning that it is not particularly shiny, in any sense Phrase relevance: Labyrinth Of The Demon King is a new horror RPG game released on PC and Steam this week.
Players explore a “labyrinth” setting that has similarities to early Silent Hill games as well as King’s Field RPGs
The game is horrific, untrustworthy, and vicious, but the reviewer admires its commitment to creating a genuine 1990s horror game feel with convincing dithering, camera angles, and sound.
Players may enjoy the game most when restarting the game, but save progress does not carry over to the full version.
