Until Dawn is an interactive horror video game. The writers Graham Reznick and Larry Fessenden have made a really good job with this game. It's not a typical video game. This is like a film with elements of video games. The whole game is based upon an in-game system called The Butterfly Effect. That means: if a tiny butterfly flaps its wings today may lead to a devastating hurricane weeks from now. What has this in common with the game? The user is involved into the game and he have to make decisions. Even the smallest decisions could dramatically change the outcome of the story.
*spoiler alert* The story is about 10teenagers who are enjoying their annual winter getaway in a ski lodge at the mountains. They decide to make fun out of a girl called Hannah. Feeling humiliated she ran into the forest in the middle of the blizzard. Her twin Beth followed her. Neither of them survived. One year later Josh is organizing an honour party for the memory of his sisters. Time to time they gradually realize that they aren't alone * * * * * * * * * * * * * The graphics of the game is absolutely amazing. When you play this game, sometimes you think you are watching a film instead of playing it. All characters are animations of real actors. While playing this game I had some serious heartbreaks. In my opinion Until Dawn is something unique. The fact that you could save or kill everyone in this game because of your decisions is really fascinating. I strongly recommend this game to everyone who would like to try out new experiences of gaming.
10/10
