Critic Reviews for The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan
It's not easy to keep everyone alive in Man of Medan, and you won't necessarily want to, especially in 2-player co-op.
Man of Medan tells a familiar story in a fascinating way, and even moreso with a partner.
Supermassive's Dark Pictures anthology gets off to a promising start, but this first nautical instalment winds up a little too promptly.
The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan is not quite as polished as Until Dawn, but it's still an effective horror gaming experience with a great story.
At its best Man of Medan delivers a confident and well crafted horror experience with a genuinely clever two player mode. But it's unbalanced pacing has a little too much opening filler and an unsatisfying conclusion.
Combining Until Dawn's style of mild horror with online multiplayer works great, but the actual story and characters fail to engage.
The uninteresting story has plenty of dull moments, but isn't enough to kill the thrill of trying to keep all of the characters alive, especially when played with friends
Man of Medan is a thinner, flawed follow-up to Until Dawn that is saved by its online co-op mode.
