The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan Review – The Start of Something Special
Cinematic horror game Until Dawn was a sleeper hit when it launched in 2015, prompting Sony and developer Supermassive Games to collaborate on a further pair of exclusives (for PSVR) in Rush of Blood and The Inpatient, as well as the PlayLink title Hidden Agenda. Now that relationship no longer applies, with Bandai Namco publishing The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan across multiple platforms, though the high levels of polish synonymous with Supermassive?s PS4 exclusive output are thankfully still present.
In fact, Man of Medan isn?t much of a departure from what you might expect on the whole. The Dark Pictures Anthology is proposed to be a series of standalone horror games where each takes inspiration from a subgenre of horror cinema, this debut entry specifically marrying the home invasion and ghost story tropes into one fresh new spin on things.
