I really haven’t given enough attention to Gray Dawn, even though I was made aware of it two months ago by a friend who referred to it as “a horror game about a priest and his altar boy.” That unnecessarily brief synopsis set me up for an entirely different game. Alas, there’s no scathing cultural commentary to be had here.
Set in 1910 Sweden, Gray Dawn follows a priest who’s been accused of murdering an altar boy he had tried, and failed, to perform an exorcism on. The demon did it, obvs. I suspect it was either Belial or Angry Freddy Krueger, but I’ll need to dust off my copy of Diablo III — for research — before I can be sure of who, or what, is behind this.
