All in all, Madison is one of the most intense horror experiences in gaming. The excellent writing and detailed setting provide near-unparalleled atmosphere and experience. Unfortunately, the puzzle elements are far more obtuse than the average player can handle, and coupling this with the oppressive atmosphere that intensifies as the game progresses, I was caught in a cycle of being drawn in and repelled, seduced and frustrated. While distinctly memorable and providing a unique and lasting experience, it falls just short of the top tier of horror games.

‘All in all, FAITH: The Unholy Trinity is an excellent indie horror game that hits far more often than it misses. It has a high skill cap and carries the frustrating elements of 1980s gaming, but those in no way should dissuade the intrepid gamer who typically finds they are more than a match for the asks of modern games. Despite my issues, Airdorf Games are still going to make my automatic buy list, as the vibrant creativity and excellent storytelling showcased in FAITH eclipses all of its lesser elements.’
