Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle may sound like a bizarre game of word association, but it’s actually the name given to the prequel to Daymare: 1998, the third-person survival horror game that proudly wore its Resident Evil 2 influence on its sleeve like a stitched-on S.T.A.R.S. badge. Yet while Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle might have a slightly cryptic title, its intentions are certainly clear - to take the medkit-collecting, corridor-creeping, survival horror-shooting of its predecessor and upgrade it with nifty new gadgets and electricity-charged enemy types in order to elevate it above simple homage.

Solid game and it will be interesting to see it on the newer systems. GS2 Games announced today that the retail (packaged) version of Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle will be coming to the Xbox Series X and Xbox One on April 9th, 2024.

TSA reviews Daymare 1994: Sandcastle
NoobFeed Editor Michael Nicolosi writes - There is a solid game to be found beneath the rough spots. If Invasion Studios can work out these kinks, no doubt the next Daymare game will be a smash hit. For $29.99, it is fairly priced for the amount of content you receive here. As a newer studio with not a lot of funds to go around, Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle is an improvement over the first title.
