New framing device and a new chapter show the series in its best light.
Inheritance?s lackluster gameplay.

The atmosphere is excellent at times.
Impressive audiovisual equipment.

Layers of Fear 2, very successful and improved.
The third story in the lighthouse, an excellent binder.
The confrontations in Layers of Fear 1 are pointless, just like the lamp.
It remains a copy/paste almost identical with too little improvement.

Impressive graphics
Smooth framerate
Uninteresting story
Not scary


Fun physics
The Writer adds little


A handful of profoundly eerie set-pieces and an effective use of imagery.
Laudable audio design.
Some scares don?t quite land and begin to feel a little too one note.
A few puzzles feel far too trial and error.
Frame-rate hitches.
Ran into several bugs that required me to restart my console or load to a previous save.
A lack of genuine threat undermines the stakes.


Impressive audio design
Some genuinely scary and interesting moments here and there
The Writer's story does a good job of recontextualizing, connecting, and framing the other chapters.
Bland, one-note gameplay loop quickly gets repetitive
Too predictable to be consistently frightening in any meaningful way.


Some jump scares
The very rich content (2 games, their DLC, an exclusive chapter)
The sweet price (29.99?)
A disguised walking simulator.
Gameplay that has aged very poorly.
A disappointing soundtrack.
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


Great sound design
Some inventive use of play spaces
Unengaging puzzles and core loop
Tropey and tasteless writing
Fails to scare
