Scorn gameplay

Article Continues Below

Scorn is an atmospheric first-person horror adventure game. Players explore a wide, open world with different interconnected regions. These regions are like mazes, which players can explore and discover for themselves. Each of these regions has its own story to tell, so players will have to explore them to figure out the story. While exploring, the player will encounter new skills, weapons, and items. Each of these is designed to help the player in their exploration.

It is important to note, however, that although the player has access to weapons, this game is not a shooter game. Yes, you can use these weapons to fight off the various monstrosities that you will encounter. However, ammunition is scarce, and no one knows what dangers lurk just around the corner. Players must think carefully and wisely about when to use what item or weapon, as making mistakes in this game could prove fatal. While there is a time to fight, there is also a time to be stealthy. Players must quickly change their playstyles if they want to survive in this game.

Another feature Scorn prides itself in is what they call Full Body Awareness. Interacting with a living, breathing world requires a living, breathing body. Scorn provides this experience. Whenever you pick up items, you will see your character actually hold onto these items, instead of it just floating in front of you. The same goes when you interact with machinery, or when you interact with the environment. Scorn aims to immerse you in its world, and immerse in it you must if you want to experience all the game has to offer. Of course, this also includes your death.

Scorn story

The game takes place in an unknown realm, ravaged by a devastating war. The player wakes up and must explore this realm, which contains various regions. Each region of the game has its own theme or story. Players will just have to play the game and explore it to figure out the story of each region themselves. It is important to note, however, that according to the developers, Scorn does not have cut scenes. This means that players will have to pay really close attention to what is happening around them, or else they will miss out on important details. In worse cases, it might even lead to death.
