We write the year 2003: The end of the Iraq war is close and as part of a special command, you are on the way to find supposed weapons of mass destruction. But it is different, as planned: An earthquake shakes the environment and the ground opens: only seconds later you will find you deep under the earth in an ancient Sumerian temple, which raises more questions when we could answer in this text.

In House of Ashes you play, as in the predecessors Little Hope and Man of Medan, a whole series of different protagonists. The cinema horror game allows you to experience the great story about mysterious creatures in the underground labyrinth from many viewing angles and regularly switches from a character to the next.

You always control a figure and explore the world, interacts with objects and leads conversations. In order to fully enter here, you do not require prior knowledge: the individual episodes of The Dark Pictures are closed and introduce new people, locations and dangers each time.

deep underground

Our just one-hour preview session started at the beginning of House of Ashes, shortly after the earthquake and the subsequent collapse of the soil. But the Sumeric labyrinth itself is not the biggest problem: he does not last long until some events are overshadowed and a teammate is difficult to wound around his life. Whether you can save him, we do not want to reveal at this point, but you should stay alert! As lonely as it seems down here, it is not. Mysterious creatures scurry through the shadows and hungry - on blood!

With what kind of danger you get it in this offshoot, we are not quite clear, but it does not seem to be of human nature. As Bandai Namco himself reveals, this Sumerische Temple is not only an ancorns of vegetables full of secrets, but also a nest for dangerous creatures. Luckily, you do not have to find out alone, because next to the singleplayer mode, House of Ashes allows you to create an online coop mode and the film evening with up to five people on the couch where the controller is always passed on.

Development Update with In-game Footage - 11AM PT Friday, August 27, 2021

Typical The Dark Pictures

With regard to Gameplay, the third part apparently gives away from his predecessors. It slips alternately into the skin of the different characters and interacts with the environment to trigger sequences and solve smaller puzzles.

For example, you have to get a machine for running for which you need a canister of gasoline. While not very well hidden, because of the omnipresent darkness, we still overlooked him some time. The control when exploring the world is still not as butter soft, as we would like to have it - but above all compared to the first part already much better. Or did we just get used to it?

Better, above all, the camera, which zooms out and so reveals more of the big major hall, which we discover at the beginning of the game. In the temple there will be many runways and so we are completely glad that the running animations are not quite so wooden.

Here and there, unfortunately, there are still some illogical details: so you can not control a figure for stairs, for example. In addition, our character Rachel makes her cover completely fall completely - apparently one is safe on step levels before any danger, remember that! Of course, these are just small things that do somehow destroy the immersion in such a sophisticated graphics.

Of course, we can not let the fantastic motion capturing be unmentioned at this point. Ashley Tisdale and her colleagues were fantastic thanks to state-of-the-art technology. The work has been worthwhile, at least after all we have seen what we have seen so far: facial expressions and gestures often actually look, of course and believable, which makes longer longer dialogue sequences more comprehensible.

Who dies first?

Speaking of dialogue sequences: The heart of the The Dark Pictures parts lies in the many dialogues that you can often co-determine. So it is also at House of Ashes: After a well-known principle, you have a moment to decide you in talks for a reply. Unlike Point and Click Adventures, however, you only get a trend in terms of text and the emotion to be transmitted, so that you usually do not scare 100%, which causes your answer. This can provide for excitement and frustration at the same time.

Each individual answer or action can completely change the story: the game shows you how your choice has changed the mind and relationship of people. Thus, new paths that can lead your history into whole new tracks. Sometimes it is advantageous to be nice to everyone, possibly selfishness but also something good - who knows! Each decision can decide here about life and death, because even at House of Ashes: Every character can die talvingly if you bend somewhere wrong.

More about House of Ashes:

  • Horror title presented in the new trailer
  • Publication date known and story trailer

Of course, not only your dialogues decide who survives the journey: You will often be asked for actions in the game via (announced) Quick-Time events in which you have to react lightning speed. But do not let you unsettle: sometimes it's better to just do anything or say. Because that too is an option! Whether you help you in the end of survival, we do not know. We have already deceased three characters in an hour - see how you suggest!
