The Italian videogame landscape is slowly expanding, not only in terms of sales of video game, with a consequent increase in the audience reached, but especially for what concerns the development within our country of professional projects. In all, the boot is increasing the number of houses of more or less independent of that bloom every day. Today is the turn of Dreampainters a talented all-Italian team of indie developers, which presents their first work Anna. The desire to create something that will shake the player, now accustomed to the classical canons of industry, it is clear from the outset, that is the setting for the Aosta Valley or unsettling events taking place throughout history.
GameCrate: "October is here, and for a lot of people, that means watching horror flicks and playing scary video games all month long. It’s all in preparation for Halloween, a day to embrace your inner, scary-story-loving, candy-adoring child. We’re celebrating Halloween in a big way here at GameCrate: instead of relegating this wonderful day to a single 24-hour period, we’re doing it all month long. Over the next few weeks we’ll be taking a look 31 different quality scary games, one for every day of the month of October."
DHGF: Anna is an esoteric title that offers more in the way of offering players a chance to feel creeped out as opposed to hiding-under-the-covers-with-t he-lights-on horror. You likely won’t find yourself screaming for your mother, but you may have a couple of disturbing dreams afterward. The game offers a strong storyline which will satisfy the more curious players through repeated playthroughs, but has a simple ending for those who don’t want to spend time with the more obtuse puzzles. Dreampainters creates a fantastic atmosphere through detailed imagery and ambient sound, but misses the mark a little on the user interface side of things. For someone who isn’t terribly into horror games, I thought it to be a good experience and don’t regret playing it.
