The Occultist Review – A Good Old-Fashioned Mystery
The Occultist is a narrative thriller that focuses on an unsettling occult mystery rather than jump scares. While its visuals and story are impressive for a debut effort from developer DALOAR, the gameplay mechanics, particularly concerning hostile ghosts and puzzle registration, are noted as frustrating. The game runs well on PlayStation 5, but its gameplay shortcomings prevent it from being a top-tier horror title, though it's recommended for those who prioritize story and deduction over action.
