YOMAWARI: Lost in the Dark - 遊戲英文短評

*Warning: This review contains Spoilers, though vaguely. 警告：儘管隱諱，本篇評論仍有劇透。

Maker: Nippon Ichi Software Genre: Survival Horror Platform: PC/Switch

　　Similar to its predecessor "Midnight Shadows", "Lost in the Dark" is scarily cute. However, this time the game provides a bit more freedom of exploration to complete the main objectives. The little girl no longer suffers sad destiny in the end, instead it is the "big sis" who does. The game plot remains riveting and heart-wrenching, but the emotional resonance it leaves is not as strong as Midnight Shadows', perhaps because not only this time a player is not able to play the character that the surviving protagonist desperately tries to save but fail, but also their friendship only becomes very apparent quite late in the game, so a player might not have enough time to grasp the emotional connection between the characters. However, "Lost in the Dark" does provide more complete closure than "Midnight Shadows" after the final boss fight.

　　The boss fights along with the game's saving mechanism, similarly to its predecessor, can frustrate player from time to time and cause the gameplay to be significant longer than it needs to be. Still, overall it is a great game for survival horror fans that want more on the development of characters rather than gore and violence.

My rating: 9/10
