A few months ago, developer Telepaths Tree introduced us to their debut project, a gorgeous horror-themed first-person shooter called Inner Chains. The game is being built on the Unreal Engine 4 by a team of industry veterans, including former Gears of War and Dying Light devs. With such an impressive combination of talent and tech, it’s no surprise that this game is pure eye candy.
Visuals like that are an easy sell, but they can only carry a game so far. It remains to be seen if Inner Chains will be as fun to play as it is to look at.
If you’re wondering what this game is all about, according to its developer, the goal is to “understand and unravel the mysteries of the mystical world while overcoming many dangers created by the biomechanical environment.” This “biomechanical” world seems to have assumed the role of the villain, as it actively hunts the player across “forgotten mountain ruins, through a dangerous forest where flora and fauna are our mortal enemies, to the great temples built by a mysterious caste, whose existence and objectives hide many secrets.”
That sort of sounds like the Otherworld from the Silent Hill series.
