The Sinking City 2's Shift To Survival Horror Leaves It Treading For Air
The Sinking City 2 is shifting from its predecessor's ambitious open-world approach to a more focused survival horror experience. While the genre shift makes sense for developer Frogwares' Lovecraftian roots, early impressions suggest the game feels rote and uninspired, relying heavily on familiar survival horror tropes without offering significant challenge or innovation. Despite the gameplay concerns, the narrative featuring a protagonist seeking to rescue his wife from a supernatural ordeal shows promise.
