Not since P.T. has PlayStation seen such an effective single location horror experience. With its simple setup, looping story, and inventive scares, Mortuary Assistant is borderline essential for genre fans.

The Mortuary Assistant is a very well-crafted horror game. The gameplay is surprisingly addictive and its use of sound and randomized scares make it a nerve-wracking experience to play. A few confusing tutorials and clunky story moments aside, this is a horror game that does a lot of things right.

The Mortuary Assistant: Definitive Edition is a horror game that will actually send shivers up your spine and have you clutching your chest. Now, with new features and being better than ever, you must juggle with preserving dead bodies and fighting off demons in this unnerving panic induced trip through purgatory. 4 Final Dispostion Starting a new job can be hard, but doing it while having to fight off demons is a totally different story.

Mortuary Assistant may not give off a great first impression visually, but the aesthetics and horror elements shine. They take a series of mundane tasks and overlay a series of jumpscares and a mood that really feels extremely well executed, even if the control on consoles doesn’t quite impress. Rebecca's past colors a lot of the game’s best scares, and her desire to reveal the truth of River Fields makes for a compelling narrative highlighted by a strong performance of its lead. It’s janky, and extremely clunky, but it is a shining example of horror done right. Developer - Darkstone Digital.

The Mortuary Assistant is a great game that can only be made better down the line with patches and quality of life fixes. Interruptive but brief bugs did not deter from the wondrous and horrific experience to be had. Deep, bone-chilling moments are aplenty, offering some of the biggest spooks I’ve experienced in a game ever. Narrative moments provide haunting and memorable imagery, making The Mortuary Assistant a must-play horror experience this year. So get dissecting, investigating, and hunting.
