First Look: Uncanny Valley


Uncanny Valley, developed by Cowardly Creations, is a survival horror game that includes a mix of exploration, puzzle solving and a bit of action with a lot of optional story content. You play as a security guard named Tom at a remote facility. He's in charge of the night shift, while his lazy partner Buck is in charge of the day shift. Nights are long, so Tom starts exploring the facility and finds things he shouldn't. The story plays a huge part in the game, so saying anything more would be a major spoiler.

Consequence system: Uncanny Valley's main difference from other games is a thing we like to call the consequence system. Whenever you fail at something, the game goes on, but with harsh consequences for your character that can impact both the story and the gameplay.

For example - you fail at avoiding your attackers, meaning your character will move slower throughout the game, making it harder to escape future pursuers. The player then needs to be careful and more clever, which adds more tension to the game. Of course, there are mistakes you can do that lead to your death.

Features:
- A Huge, explorable facility with multiple floors and buildings
- Intense moments of dread
- Detailed story with rich characters
- Consequence system mechanic
