Holding one star back because I feel I shouldn't rate so many games with five stars...

Great game. I honestly can't summarize the story properly so I'll just say it is indeed a plague tale and wow is it dark. You play as kids, adding an elevated element of danger when hiding and in combat. Not sure if it's considered survival horror but this one certainly had my adrenaline going as much or more than any Resident Evil game.

As I mentioned in a previous post it seems like the developer took a lot of chances and absolutely nailed it.
