The Quarry

I'm a sucker for narrative and while this is a fantastic game with some great moments, actors and script - it falls short of Until Dawn in terms of gameplay, amusing cliches and overall twists and story.

I was really hyped about this game, Supermassive Games usually don't fail us in the horror/drama genres but this time... The start was ok, but the story developed in a very slow pace and only in the 9th and 10th chapters you feel that your choices are really important for the characters fate.

Also this game has a lot of bugs and fails in dialogs, in some parts i was thinking for myself if they really worked that aspect.

And when you finish, you just don't want to play another 10 hours or 2 hours (if you only want to play the final chapter) of boring cutscenes... It had potencial but, in my opinion, failed in very points. Paying 70 bucks are definitely not worthy.

Played it two times now. The first time with two Friends via Couch-Coop and let me tell you, that's the best way to play it. The monster-design is a little bit disappointing and feels like they reused the wendigo design from Until Dawn and changed it a little bit. The characters are so well written and the story is gripping. We had such a blast unraveling the mystery of what happened and what kind of monster is hunting you.

Also Kaitlyn is best girl!

The Quarry has an excellent prologue and great early game, setting a great, exciting tone moving forward. Sadly, the game seems to hit the breaks just as it approaches its conclusion, grinding to an anticlimactic halt where many of the characters feel irrelevant and underdeveloped, no satisfying conclusion is presented, but it's first half is engaging nonetheless.

THE QUARRY (2022) was a super cool game. It is a game with many different choices and pathways to choose from, a game that sure keeps you guessing, with many twists and turns along the way. It was a fun play.

The premise of The Quarry takes place at the end of summer in Hackett Summer Camp, after some counselors (Laura & Max) have mysteriously gone missing. When the sun goes down on the last night of summer camp, seven teenage counselors (Jacob, Emma, Ryan, Kaitlyn, Abigail, Dylan, Nick) are plunged into an unpredictable night of horror and have to try to survive a night in the quarry.

Overall, the game was a fun horror game, more thriller than hardcore scary. If you like mysteries, walking simulators, choice-driven, narrative-driven, horror thriller games, with a good throwback to the teen horror movies haydays of old...then you'll really enjoy this. You never really know till the end what's quite going on...Psychos, Monsters, Paranormal events? Who knows? It's all fun and games till you can't survive The Quarry...
