If war is the closest we get to hell on earth, it's because Earth harbours the worst of demons: humankind. In an isolated country ravaged by infighting, discover the secrets of your past and deal with the repercussions of a mysterious calamity.
Hell is Us makes a statement about what we want from games, deconstructing the AAA formula to give the player more agency rather than holding their hand. In doing so, it comments on the nature of humanity through its brutal, difficult, war-torn world.However, its design can also make for a frustrating experience, especially when paired with some unflattering...
While it looks pretty great, its exploration is unique, and it has a fascinating story, its very erratic jumps in difficulty can make it an uneven experience
So I sincerely hope I've been able to convey how much I enjoyed Hell is Us and that this encourages you to give it a try, whether now or later. I've already given you the clues; now it's up to you to follow them and open the door to discover this treasure .
Hell is Us' rich world and gorgeous design prop up its uninventive structure and simple combat.
Despite the limited bestiary, difficulties in exploring the world, and not the most engaging plot, Hell is Us is impossible to put down.
