With so many shooters in the indie realm taking influence from Doom, Quake, and build engine titles, it's nice to see F.E.A.R. get it's due.

I checked out a demo a year back for Trepang2. I loved my time with it. I was cautious about how a full game would turn out.

Was there enough here to flesh out into a full-fledged game? The answer is yes. Absolutely.

It is clear how much this team loves FEAR. At times it's a bit too on the nose with its inspiration, but it's a wonderful love letter and spiritual successor.

It's a great example of a small passionate team outclassing what you'll find coming from large studios. Here's to hoping the game gets it due.

Thanks to publisher Team17 for providing a review key.
