Probably a total of one million people have been telling me to check out the survival horror, indie darling Tormented Souls. To be honest, I'm a bit of a stickler and I was worried that this new Resident Evil challenger wouldn't live up to my standards. Was i right to worry? Let's find out!

This game is from a chilean studio, if i’m not mistaken, so, yeah, not native English speakers. Also, i guess the delivery in the VA is purposely weird as a homage to the old Survival Horror games.

That's also the reason why the diaries and journal entries are in spanish, if you look closely. And why the infinite corridor messed me up the first time. As a german, we use N-O-S-W for compass directions. I'm also used to understanding N-E-S-W in English, but N-E-S-O threw me out of the loop for a second. 😂 Especially because I only glanced at the directions and thought E was a W...

I love when survival horror games confine you to a small space and then you start slowly unlocking more rooms. The way the game make you think, taking into account supplies and enemies that may still be alive, etc. It's so much fun. The difficulty wears away cause it's the same thing each time but switching up routes and becoming more efficient keeps the replay value high. Damn fun, nice when developers really nail it. Tormented Souls is an insanely impressive game.

I had a good feeling about this game when I first saw it a while back, but was hesitant due to several other indie or smaller studios trying their hand at "classic" survival horror, just for them to miss the mark. But after playing the demo for this... it made those doubts disappear and I immediately ordered the game after that. Glad to see it meets your standards for the genre as well!

The game looks great and I hope it reaches more people. With that said, I hope the PS4 version doesn't get cancelled again. It seems to be delayed from end of this month to February. And I only know that because places like Amazon and Gamestop have it listed that way. I really need to play this game, but getting a PS5 to do it is out of the question at the moment.

Yeah I feel the same, I did have the switch version pre-ordered and was going to get that this month but it’s also been pushed back to the same date as the PS4. I suspect being an indie game they are using the raw power of PC and PS5 to power through performance issues that might be present on older platforms hence the delay. I’ll get PS5 next year hopefully so when I do TS will be purchased along side it.

Just came back here to finish watching after beating the game and I thought it was exceptional. Finally a classic survival horror game with an old school fixed camera, love it. Just a note about the operating room puzzle, which stumped me for about 30 minutes also, not only do you get the hint in the observation room (with foreshadowing a later enemy), there is also a note you can find which talks about a ritual where twins would dance in circles on a moonless night to bring back the dead. Realising this I actually think that that puzzle was really well done and I was just being dumb for not picking up on it sooner

Thank you for sharing this gem of a game with us. We've been working on a visual novel of sorts trying to blend in the concept of the traditional survival horror since we don't have the manpower or frankly the expertise to make something as spectacular as this. We'll definitely be learning from this game as we move into development on a proper 3d engine some day. Thank you for keeping this genre alive, not many people feel proud about endorsing this style but in my opinion modern gaming owes most of its success to the innovations made in the survival horror genre.

Oh this is just lovely. It feels like late 90s and early 2000s promotional renders made into an actual game. I do wonder if the character models looking so bright and differently rendered than the backgrounds and objects is supposed to invoke the old-school models on prerendered backgrounds look, and Caroline being so bright means she always "pops" no matter where in the background area she is. That's my take, anyway. I definitely wanna grab this when it lands on Switch or Xbox One (I haven't a next gen console yet 😔)

I'm so excited to try this! I didn't realize it was out on consoles too and thought it was just PC It looks reaaally cool And I'm glad she has the fingerless gloves aesthetic. You gotta have the fingerless gloves like back then Thanks for the recommendation!

Finally got around to Tormented Souls last week and man it made me feel like a kid again. The puzzles were near perfect to the point of being challenging but when they managed to stump me and I did figure it out I felt like an idiot. My gripe with the game was a lack of limited inventory. I may be a glutton for punishment but I always liked the struggle of deciding what resource I need to leave behind in order to carry necessary key items to progress. It's like I need this door knocker so do I leave behind the shotgun shells or healing items? Then having to cope and change your tactics because on the way you were ambushed by an enemy who you would normally dispatch with a couple shotgun shells and you left those behind.

This game made me feel like I was back in the dark halls of the first SH game for the few brief otherworld scenes and unironically I think it deserves to be played for that alone. I have no clue why it did, but it did and I fucking love it for that.

Hey Jared, have you heard anything on “Them and Us” yet? It’s another new release in the style of the OG (the TRUE) “Survival Horror” games, much akin to “Tormented Souls”… at least if the player utilizes the “fixed camera” setting-seeing as they’ve also allowed the player to make the experience “Over the Shoulder” or even “First Person” camera perspectives!!! Although I believe the FPS version is a DLC… anyways I’m eagerly awaiting what your take will be on it!!!! I absolutely *LOVE* “Tormented Souls” & you most definitely gave it the review it deserves!!!

Funny how a game with legitimately challenging puzzles leads different people to have issues with different ones. You had trouble with the operating room, and I saw Critical Nobody hated the gasoline valves, both of which I had little issue with. Meanwhile, the record player had my brain melting. I knew what to do, but over and over I'd press buttons I was absolutely certain matched the record only for nothing to happen. I'm not even tone deaf, either; I literally write my own music and I was harmonizing with the record to match the buttons. I just couldn't get it. I also had trouble with the cash register, but that's one of those puzzles that's objectively very easy, but still the kind of thing I never would have figured out on my own. Freezing the medallion was also an issue, but only because the game glitched and wouldn't let me into the VHS kitchen.

I don't usually skip the spoiler sections but your high praise and admiration for this game has reignited my curiosity in this. It was one I had considered, having ignited an intrigue in horror games and liking what I saw, but ultimately dropped due to too many good games capturing my eye this year (only so much money and time). With this fantastically indepth analysis, I may reconsider and see about a future purchase. Well, perhaps after developing a stronger stomach. Some of those terrifically and horrifically designed monsters and scenes hit a gore factor that had my stomach churning.
