Hello again fellow readers, today i'm back with one a review of one of the best exclusives for PS4, "Until Dawn". You guys may know or may not know about this game, so i  recommend to read the preview first. Then with no further a due, let's jump to the review!

On 2 February 2014, seven friends: Sam (Hayden Panettiere), Mike (Brett Dalton), Chris (Noah Fless), Ashley (Galadriel Stineman), Emily (Nichole Bloom), Jessica (Meaghan Martin), and Matt (Jordan Fisher) are celebrating their annual getaway at Blackwood Pines lodge, owned by their mutual friends, Josh Washington (Rami Malek) and his twin sisters, Hannah and Beth (Ella Lantini). Mike, Ash, Em, Jess, and Matt play a prank on Hannah because Hannah had a crush on Mike (Mike is going out with Emily at the time). Hannah is successfully pranked and runs to the forest. Beth follows her and they end up getting cornered to a cliff, where they fall to their deaths. A year later, the bodies of Hannah and Beth still haven't been recovered. Josh invites their friends to honor Hannah and Beth. And at this moment, all sorts of bizarre conditions happen to them. 

Developer, Supermassive Games, tries to bring back 90's teens horror story back, and they i have to admit they have done a pretty good job on it. The story is pretty well made, a combination of survival and horror story. A butterfly effect system from the game makes it more unique and you can play the game more than once since the choices you make effects on the story. So, can you save them all?

Those actors have done a good job, on how they bring the tension to the players, and on how their expressions effect us. The graphics of the game is beautifully amazing, but sometimes the framerates are dropping really hard on some scenes, it's not disturbing though. For those who has problems with their heart, don't play this game, because it has a lot of jumpscares.

Overall, this is one of the best games i've played to date. If you haven't played this game, you have to! 

As always, thanks for your support! Feel free to comment and stay tuned for another reviews!
