The Long Reach: A Horror-Thriller Adventure Game
The Long Reach is an adventure game with a horror-thriller twist that takes place in the present day in the fictional town of Baervox, New Hampshire. Developed by Merge Games, this game draws inspiration from Lone Survivor and The Cave, offering a unique gameplay experience that will screw with your perception of things. You play as Calvin, and the game is filled with colorful characters, puzzles, and a shock of discovery. The game misuses stunning pixel art to create gruesome and unsettling images that will haunt you. The game features an original atmospheric and haunting soundtrack that will add to the overall experience.
In The Long Reach, you won't be forced to figure everything out. You can escape if you wish, and in fact, the developers encourage you to run for your life! The game features puzzles that require thinking outside the box, but the box provided by the publisher was never used during development. The game also includes a classic adventure game inventory filled with keys and weird stuff, but note that there are no Elvish swords glowing faintly blue when evil is close in this game. Lastly, you'll be able to talk to plenty of characters throughout the game, and you'll have a chance to pitch in every five lines or so. Experience the horror-thriller adventure game with The Long Reach on PlayStation 4.
