[Review] Tormented Souls
Posted on 2 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: April 14, 2022
Developer: Dual Effect / Abstract Digital
Publisher: PQube
Tormented Souls is next in line in wanting to revisit and recreate some of the classic moments that catapulted the horror genre to where it is today. It’s arguably one of the best attempts in recent memory to do so, with a design that’s clearly made from a place of passion, respect, and immense desire to bring back the likes of fixed camera angles, intense resource management, and a deeply detailed playground where immersion is absolutely key. Though Tormented Souls’ heart is in a good place, however, there’s no denying that it stumbles quite a bit, and the Switch version of the game isn’t also without sacrifice.

TASOMACHI: Behind the Twilight will have a physical release and it’ll support English, it’s been confirmed.
Playism tends to go digital-only with its releases in North America and Europe. However, some of its Switch titles have received the boxed treatment in Japan, and it looks like TASOMACHI: Behind the Twilight will be one of those exceptions. Copies will even include an art book and original soundtrack.
