NOCTURNE (1999): RESURRECTING A FORGOTTEN SURVIVAL HORROR CLASSIC

#NocturneReview #SurvivalHorror

Nocturne is the epitome of a horror game that’s impossible to boil down into a 2-digit number intended to quantify how “objectively” good it is. Released in 1999 and developed by Terminal Reality, it was technically so impressive that barely any computer could run it remotely smoothly at the time. It’s an incredibly atmospheric horror gaming gem in the truest sense of the metaphor, highly overlooked, neglected and dropped from distribution into obscure abandonware state, that - no matter how you end up feeling about it - will leave an impression on you.
And it’s one that I keep being bummed about that it never received a proper sequel.
