Until Dawn is a mixed bag of high-end visuals, horror, teen drama and quick time events, so of course it’s brimming with material for Honest Game Trailers to sink its teeth into. If you were waiting for Smosh Games to take a look, it’s time to stop your digital loitering. Warning: The video contain spoilers for the game!
While it may tick the box for every horror trope in existence, Until Dawn does have some interesting gameplay mechanics. OK, that’s not entirely true — going from the clip alone, it appears mostly comprised of sequence requiring timed button presses (and other mini-games), collectible hunting and throwing snowballs at people.
Jump scares are also plentiful, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if you enjoy that sort of thing, though they will wear out their welcome if you have to replay sections again and again because you tripped over an errant log, or accidentally impaled yourself on a meat hook.
Hey, that can totally happen.
