An unsolicited invitation to spend the night in a remotely located reconstruction of H.H. You never know what’s going to be around that next bend, and Supermassive is superb at mixing in both jump scares and other ways to keep you on your toes.The Devil in Me's premise is certainly a tantalizing one.

In both that movie and this game, the creators use tight camera shots as the characters are sneaking through tunnels to add an extra sense of claustrophobia, which increases the scare factor. Think of films like The Descent for a solid reference point. For example, House of Ashes mostly takes place in an underground ruin. Supermassive excels at building tension throughout its best moments, and it subtly uses the environment to help do that. What House of Ashes does do well is the same thing that made Until Dawn so special.

A gorgeous setting and some genuinely frantic monster sequences save it from being a complete disaster, but this still feels like a step backward from the heights of interactive horror stories. There weren’t enough meaningful consequences to the choices I made to inspire further digging into its box of tricks, which made additional playthroughs tough going, and the more generous amount of time you have to react to quick-time events deprived me of any gory deaths. Little Hope tells a mostly one-note story with underdeveloped characters, and even a fun co-op mode can’t inject enough life to fix that.
