Nothing in An Evil Existence feels like it fits together; there is no flow to the gameplay, it’s janky and broken, the load times are incredibly long, the graphical glitches are prevalent, and there are constant frame drops. It's shocking that something like this has even made it through to the Xbox Store. It may seem like I am being harsh, however when you include the high asking price, you're essentially paying for two hours of punishment and boredom.

I would have loved to be worked into this more slowly. I don’t mean this as a super negative though. The reason I feel like this is theI would have loved to be worked into this more slowly. I don’t mean this as a super negative though. The reason I feel like this is the atmosphere, sound, and surroundings are actually creepy as hell. Like you hear the lady talking about where are her pills, and it’s just creepy as hell except they have already shown you both of the enemies so there is nothing left to the imagination. I would have loved to just explore the house a little more, and be eased into the nightmare of trying to survive. It is just so rushed, but I guess that is kind of expected considering you can beat the whole game in barely over an hour. Hopefully they do well enough to make a sequel, or Prequel would probably work out better considering the way this one ends. Right now though this one is super short though, and still cost $20. I have a hard time saying you get $20 worth of content. If you find it on sale though it’s still really enjoyable.Another issue in my opinion is the combat and the overall controls. There is a lot of times reacting with objects seems really delayed. Like you hit the “A” button and nothing happens for like 10 seconds. The combat just seems really rough around the edges as well. Just feels like you are swinging away and unsure if it’s even making contact. You will see in my video review better, You swing and swing away, and the enemy just sits there. Like a couple times in my play throughs they died and were still standing up so I wasn’t sure what to do. There is only a few battles though so this isn’t something that you are going to deal with a lot. When you aren’t dealing with these issues it’s really creepy. Like the Atmosphere really keeps you on the edge of your seat. You never know what is going to happen next. It’s also super gory and bloody. Which I loved every second of. I know it sounds like I’m being negative about the combat, price, and length of this title but I’m really not. I’m being honest which is important when you review games. In my honest opinion I still quite enjoyed it. Despite it’s flaws I think the positives out weigh them.The games look, feel, and sound really adds up to a really horrifying experience at times. I can’t even begin to explain just how good this games sounds in your headset or on your tv. You will hear footsteps, mumbling, and just so many thing that really add to the experience of not knowing what is around the next corner. It also has a raw/grimy look to it as well. It really gives me a Resident Evil 7 feel as far as it’s appearance at most times. There was a lot of moments I was grossed out ,or felt really uneasy and that is why you play games like this. So don’t get me wrong it sets out to do the things it wants to, but leaves you wanting more as it comes to a end very quickly. I really hope to see Draydur studio continue with this series or at least continue making horror games. I think they did well a lot more than they missed the mark. I feel when they missed the mark it wasn’t by much either.

An Evil Existence has arriving on the Xbox Store for Xbox One for purchase and digital download. An Evil Existence threatens to scare the witsAn Evil Existence has arriving on the Xbox Store for Xbox One for purchase and digital download. An Evil Existence threatens to scare the wits out of you much like the multitude of stunning horror titles previously available. Some have done so more successfully than other but the genre tends to be a popular one despite the many offering available today. Within the first few minutes of game play you will be trapped into an interactive nightmare; a horrific exploration of pure and realistic survival horror. The only way to survive and stay alive is to defend yourself from each member of the family who engage in combat through out the game. If you’re done with all other horror aspects and are looking for a new thriller to scare you witless one evening then possibly consider An Evil Existence, while it's not the best from a technical perspective the game does offer fun for those who provide the patience to experience the story within. The game is a little on the high side when it comes to the price of admission, but if you are a fan of the genre you should have no issue with the price. If it's not your favorite genre you may want to put this one on your wish list for the 1st opportunity to grab it on sale on the Xbox store.
