Defunct Games reviews Daymare: 1998, available now on PC. Coming soon to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Although it’s unpolished and not especially original, Daymare: 1998 offers a fun and tense survival horror experience that feels like a throwback to a different time. It has a nice variety of locations and some brain-busting puzzles, along with a gripping story that has a genuinely great ending. But even with all that going for it, Daymare remains a derivative adventure that goes down the checklist of what you expect from the genre without adding anything new. It’s also marred by awful performance issues and some atrocious voice acting. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but Daymare: 1998 delivers when it needs to and should give fans of the genre something to be scared about.
