After two reality-testing ghost stories, The Dark Pictures Anthology is swinging into more tangible monster horror territory with House of Ashes. The pitch is pure Aliens meets Descent, with a soldiers vs monsters premise in which an American military unit ends up trapped in an ancient underground temple with… something.
If it bleeds.
The previous two entries in Supermassive s narrative adventure games, Man of Medan and Little Hope, build their scares from much more traditional ghost influences. So it ll be interesting to see how House of Ashes shift to a more physical monster threat will change the game s mix of jump scares and QTE decision making.
