Had a pretty great time with this one! If you’ve ever enjoyed an 80’s thriller or Stranger Things give I Hate This Place a go!
It was a fun time with a dark and creepy world to uncover:

I Hate This Place Review — Dark, Dank, and Rad! | Console Creatures
I Hate This Place does a great job of creating an 80's vibe with a classic action-horror atmosphere. The story is interesting and dark, the protagonist kicks ass, and the action is fun and visceral.

"Ultimately the metaprogression and clever world-building will bring me back again and again. The more I played, the more invested I felt in seeing what else the game had in store for me."
