Daymare 1994 Sandcastlethe long-awaited prequel to the hit Daymare: 1998, by Invader Studios. It immerses us in a chilling world of horror and third-person survival in the purest style of resident Evil. In this episode, we assume the role of agent Dalila Reyesa former government spy who now works for the HADES unit We will have to investigate an area of Area 51, where an experiment went wrong.
Daymare 1994’s graphic leap is palpable
The first thing the game surprised me for was its graphical leap from its predecessor. Although it does not fall within the scope of triple A games, Daymare 1994 features high-quality modeling (except for the characters’ hair), large industrial sets and, above all, quite remarkable lighting management. Of course, the flashlight does quite a bit. Also mention that on PC, the graphic options are quite complete
These elements combine to create environments that perfectly fit the horror genre. We will find bodies everywhere, mutilations, blood and more, which is starting to make it very clear that We are at a totally hostile environment. Since I’m commenting on the environments, I’ll say that the sounds also seem pretty cautious, footsteps, background noise, enemy noise, etc. As for the soundtrack, we have several songs that just add more tension to the environment.
Daymare 1994 Gameplay
Daymare 1994 It has the same third-person camera as its predecessor, which in turn inspired by the latest episodes of resident Evil. He is not only inspired by the camera but also by its mechanics. We have manual save points, objects we can interact with, cards to collect, keys, ammo, etc.
That being said, the most notable are the monsters, which are fast and deadly. They also consume a lot of ammo since, in reality, the enemies are spheres of electricity. When we kill them, the sphere can possess another body from the environment, forcing us to spend even more ammunition.
To avoid this, we have the Frost Grip a kind of cryogenic gauntlet this allows us to quickly complete the spheres, among other things. We can fire hydrogen “bullets” to instantly freeze enemies, hit the ground when we release their grip, or simply solve on-stage puzzles that require cold. I must add that the Frost Grip is not infinite, it recharges very slowly but also its use must be managed judiciously and be aware to find quick refills to keep it active.
Eventually
The qualitative leap in the graphics section is evident. The sets are meticulously designed, creating an oppressive and tense atmosphere. In addition, the art section has received special attention, making every element of the game fit together perfectly.
Game mechanics have also undergone significant improvements. Combat is more fluid and challengingkeeping the player constantly on his toes. The incorporation of Frost Grip as a strategic tool adds an interesting element to the game, allowing players to take on the horrors with more tactical options.
With all these improvements, Daymare 1994: Sandcastle promises to be a much more complete and satisfying experience than its predecessor. Invader Studios has done everything possible to offer a quality title that meets the expectations of fans of the horror genre.
Now we just have to wait impatiently for the release of the final version and see if Invader Studios has managed to deliver on all its promises. Without a doubt, this game is shaping up to be a very promising option for horror and survival fans.
