The Shore was sent my way by Iphi Games, and is one of those beautiful, atmospheric horror games that were on PC for a long time and finally made its way to console. You will start off on a beach searching for something and will quickly figure out what that something is. More importantly, that something is someone, and that someone is your daughter.
It doesn’t take long to discover that something on this island isn’t right. I mean that quite literally, the game only takes around 4 hours to finish. That 4 hours, however, are filled with some beautiful sights, some horrible monsters, and a pretty heart-wrenching story. Is it really worth the very odd price point of $21.49 tho?
Well, as I said, the game is truly beautiful. I also can’t deny that the sound is incredible; it gets pretty creepy from the music alone as you walk up and down the beach and see the occasional Lovecraftian horror out in the distance.
This does bring me to why I can’t recommend the game on PS5 unless you have no choice. The game is $12 on Steam, and they even have bundles for about 20. For a 4-hour game with so little replay val/ue to be such a price in one place and less in another, even when that game is an 8/10 title, I can’t recommend you buy it on console over Steam, unless you only own a console. That being said, the game is worth experiencing. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
