    Don't know how many of you guys are into Steam games, but there's a brilliant short horror game on there called Still Wakes the Deep.

    Just completed it although it's about £30 for what should probably only take you around 3-4 hours to complete.

    Set on an offshore oil rig off the coast of Aberdeen. Really creepy atmosphere and a brilliant story. Voice acting is great too. Worth looking into if any of you guys are into short horror games. Really packs a punch this one but it's very linear, so be wary of that!

    I liked the Scottish touch. Thought it was pretty well done

    Completed it in a day, good wee game and the Scottish accents where done right. Not many games out there based in Scotland so this was refreshing.

    Anybody who likes getting there moneys worth, wait for a bigger discount down the line or play on game pass. It took me around 5 hours to complete the game, definitely a won and done game. But sometimes a like that as a don't always have time to spend 100 hours in a game.

    Bumping this as I've just played it, very linear (yellow paint!) as mentioned but really enjoyable, nice atmosphere, oil rig setting done really well and voice actors spot on. For some reason my subtitles were an english type translation so it made the real voices ever better, It's first time in a game i've heard my character being called a ned *!

    They should rename it 'The Hing'.

    I watched the play through. Was fantastic to watch, like a film.

    Some of the best voice acting in a game as well. Very few cringey Scottish accents.
