The Movement is ok, when you play with a friend the chars often blocking themselves. The Story is well written. After all, a solid Game.

So I’m reallyThis was the first title of this series which finally provide a decent amount of horror, which I expect of such a 18+ game. So I’m really looking forward to the next one. Visually this game is good as usual. Story and nice visuals are the key selling point of this series, since it’s more an interactive movie than a game. For fans of this genre I can recommend this title without doubt.

Also, do the developers know that the Akkadians and all the nearby tribes with whom they have ever contacted or fought are Middle Eastern people in appereance, and not sub-Saharan Africans? In addition, there are many graphical bugs and bad facial animations.

This was definitely the best of the series so far! Each game gets better and better and I can’t wait until the next installment.

3 ème épisode de la saga "The Dark Pictures", the house of ashes ne change que très peu la formule de base. On est face à un jeu purement3 ème épisode de la saga "The Dark Pictures", the house of ashes ne change que très peu la formule de base. On est face à un jeu purement narratif avec un gameplay limité, souvent synonyme de QTE. Les choix cruciaux sont toujours de la partie avec la possibilité de réussir le jeu avec tous les protagonistes en vie, ou aucun...Dans ce 3ème opus, on constate que la technique s'améliore avec des décors plus "grandioses" et des textures plus travaillées même si tout n'est pas parfait.Niveau scénario, il est meilleur que le 2ème (little hope), mais je garde tout de même ma préférence pour le 1er pour le moment. Le doublage français est pas mal par contre la synchro labiale est souvent aux fraises.J'espère juste que pour la saison 2 (il reste encore 1 épisode à venir pour la saison 1), ils iront plus loin dans le gameplay et revenir à des titres plus jouables comme Until Dawn.Cela reste un très bon jeu pour ceux qui aiment le genre, ce qui est mon cas.

House of Ashes proves that even an annual anthology release that’s so iterative in its gameplay mechanics can still evolve in significant ways. The changes evident here, and perhaps the developer’s maturation in storytelling, result in what may be the series’ strongest entry yet.

Don’t come in expecting a suspenseful horror or a psychological thriller. This time around, Supermassive Games treats us to an action-horror with adrenaline-filled scenes and great camera work.

A thrilling adventure for a couple of nights. You’ll probably see all of its major plot twists a mile away, but the clash with horrors lurking in an ancient temple is definitely worth your time.

House of Ashes is limited, but oh so entertaining. It's a bit sad that the focus on action overtakes some of the horror elements, but at the same time we appreciate that the story and the environments differ a lot from the anthology's previous titles.

At the end of the day, I still enjoyed my time with House of Ashes. It is the best story so far in the series and even with the issues I had with both the glitches and gameplay, this was a decent time overall. If you have played the series this far, you know what you’re getting into. If you want to give this one a shot to see what The Dark Pictures is all about, you can’t be this one’s story and premise. Just keep in mind, there will be some really strange bugs that come along with it.

House of Ashes is a great interactive adventure and offers a fantastic story, with a great dose of terror and claustrophobia, and also action and some of the best conflicts between characters in the entire anthology.

Despite the slow nature of the first half of House of Ashes, when it gets into its stride it is a homage to classic science-fiction action horror titles that will leave you on the edge of your seat. The scares may not be as obtrusive as the previous titles in the anthology, but this may then appeal to those that aren’t necessarily horror fanatics.

Overall if you’ve played a Dark Picture Anthology game, you know what to expect with House of Ashes. They seem to all play around the same but have different stories and gameplay circumstances. Whether the story is good or not, or characters are interesting or boring is all left up to opinion for the most part. One thing is for sure though – if you’re a horror fan, you really need to get into this series, because it has some great stories to tell and some nice moments of horror to share. House of Ashes is my personal favorite of the Dark Pictures games so far and it definitely rivals Until Dawn. It’s hard to say it’s better than Until Dawn, because they both have their ups and downs, but it’s definitely a contender.

With House of Ashes, Supermassive Games adds another layer to the solid foundations of its know-how. At the end of this new angsty adventure, one could be tempted to reprove the studio for sticking to its guns. But one must point out the care taken with an intriguing story, characters realistic as ever, beautiful shots and a refreshing critique of the Iraqi conflict. As one could imagine, fans will not be particularly surprised by this new proposal. If one is not allergic to the genre and its inherent flaws, it would truly be a shame to miss out on a title that is effective in every aspect. After finishing this chapter, we can’t wait to discover The Devil in Me next year.

I also liked how they made it so that some characters choices could negatively impact other characters rather than themselves in this one which I don't believe was ever the case previously, your choices generally only applied to your own survival. I also liked how they included some narration via documents in this one kinda similar to the narration you got as you found clues in until dawn, it really makes it a lot nicer than reading paragraphs of text that for the most part isn't that interesting. Where it kinda disappointed for me was the scare value, this is definitely the least creepy of the bunch at least in the playthrough we did. Movies like the decent were able to deliver some really tense and creepy moments but this one unfortunately seemed a bit more of an adventure game than the kind of creepiness im used to from the previous entries which is a part of why I chose these. I'm hoping the next one which seems to involve a modern day seriel killer isnt similar in style to hidden agenda. I like hidden agenda quite a bit despite its flaws and would be interested in trying an improved version but if I want that style of game I'll play it, I play the dark pictures anthology for scares. Overall though as many have said they're going in the right direction, I feel like with more funding they could really expand it out to until dawn levels. Hopefully the next few will get there as popularity grows. Also it would be nice if they threw in a new mechanic at some point. The types of things the game asks you have been pretty much the same for 3 games now. Experienced players likely have it down fairly well which is why increased difficulty is a nice option but it would still be nice to see something fresh thrown in occasionally.

I became a fan of this developer for tons of unique and interesting things they did. The developer just made me happy by representing SalimI became a fan of this developer for tons of unique and interesting things they did. The developer just made me happy by representing Salim (muslim character) as a good- no as a best character. Most of the western media often portrayed Muslims as suicide bombers/extremists/backward until now. But the dev earned my heart by not just representing him in the actual good way but also showed the real personality of daily Muslim instead of unconsciously misrepresenting him due to lack of knowledge about Muslim people. And the morals of this game, my goodness I love it!!Love how they didn't showed whether usa or iraq good/bad but rather depicted that war is never good. Love how they showed despite the war, people of the conflicting countries are not hostile as the war. They also showed how gov is the main culprit in almost all cases. They even showed the actual tragic reality of soldiers like how they get mistreated in the worst of the worst way by gov despite soldiers sacrificing their bodies & mental health to war for the sake of the country. Their rest of their life get massacred by gov even after war where they were supoosed to be handled with utmost care and respect

House of Ashes does not distort the philosophy of Supermassive Games. While retaining the cinematic staging of The Dark Pictures saga, this third episode now offers a 360 ° camera and better integrated QTEs. Thanks to its controlled rhythm, its claustrophobic atmosphere and its interesting plot, it surpasses its predecessors despite its flaws (uneven writing, cartoonish characters, frozen shooting phases…). For anyone who enjoys interactive experiences of the genre, this latest iteration of the anthology is worthy of curiosity.

Personally, I didn't have enough QTE, in some moments with long battles, I would like to poke at the buttons longer and there were too long scenes without actions. The difficulty level, which is the most difficult, is not felt at all in the game, as if you are playing on average. Plus, too much with yellowness, well, with a yellow filter. In general, the game series itself is very interesting

The Dark Pictures games so far have set high bars in terms of story and production quality, and House of Ashes easily hits and even occasionally surpasses them. While I wasn’t so keen initially on one aspect of the tale, it turned around completely on a second play, but even to begin with it was nowhere near enough to ruin what is a fantastically acted and put together story, wrapped up in some of the most stunning audio visual work to date. Horror games are hardly in short supply, but very few reach this level of brilliance.

While House of Ashes lacks polish thanks to an off-putting 360-degree camera and inconsistent visuals, these are likely to be fixed in the future – it’s just a shame poor Ashley has been done a little bit dirty in the process (and that’s not because she’s covered in blood half the time). All in all, House of Ashes is the standout of the series so far, and if the increase in quality is anything to go by, Devil In Me is likely to be the best entry yet.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes has come to revolutionize the series with the gifts their predecessors gave them. Not only does it fill in the imperative requirements for a good horror game, it spreads the implicit message that it's only in reach of the bravest to conquer fear, in authentic tests of pressure and choices. In a scenario completely obscure, where you can see nothing but feel everything, the decisions must be made and the course of history changed... forever. House of Ashes is, without a doubt, the best game of the series so far.

It took me almost 5 1/2 hours in co-op for this interactive survival action "horror". I also played the predecessors in co-op and overall House of Ashes is the best part for me. In retrospect, part 1 was rather weak, part 2 does it better and part 3 ultimately the strongest.Nevertheless, you don't get your money's worth in terms of horror, House of Ashes is much more geared towards action. But that doesn't really bother me, for me personally there isn't much good horror anyway (regardless of whether it is a film or a game).the atmosphereWe liked the setting very much, the narrow streets in this outdated system of ruins created an oppressive effect and made the demonic beings more threatening. The game has a fabulous staging that is graphically pretty, but has to deal with bugs and texture errors. The reloading of textures in cutscenes was already done in a very high density (Series X). The facial expressions were also a bit bumpy in places, which is a shame, especially with such a game that is more of a film than a game.But I found the presentation itself outstanding, because a lot is staged by numerous video sequences. The cut scenes in particular were pretty good.storyIt's just more action than horror. The Iraq war had to serve as the starting point for the setting, but the whole thing then turns into very exciting and sometimes surprising twists and turns. I hadn't really expected to explain where the "demons" come from, even if you probably know it from well-known film adaptations. I just didn't think about it and was then all the more surprised and, above all, positively surprised how the game was developing. Even at this junction in the story relatively at the end, the scenery is really good again and grows beyond itself.I basically all liked the characters, even if some of them were very questionable characterizations, but that's part of the character. Otherwise, in terms of dialogue, it is not the yellow of the egg, to put it cautiously, but there are really worse things. I found the conversation with the two "warring" soldiers' factions at the end very strong.For me a significant increase in story building, but also nothing special here. To be honest, I never approached the Dark Pictures Anthology with the expectation of experiencing the finest storytelling. It just goes with everything in the background.GameplayWell, you know what to expect in terms of gameplay. That is not much. It's just more of an interactive film without great gameplay. Sometimes a Quicktime event here to explore something in the form of a walking simulator. It's banal and suggests a little more freedom in exploring, especially in the catacombs or the temple area, but it's still very, very limited. Here the game could have offered a little more gameplay sections, which does not mean that the cutscenes should be shortened.The co-op worked very well for the most part and is divided up in an interesting way. My colleague could then make a comparison in the stream from time to time and there were clear differences until the characters were brought back together or not (4/5 or 4/6 survived with us, I don't even know how much those were). These differences existed right at the beginning of the tutorial, where everyone had completely different video sequences.SORRY, we had desynchronizations from time to time, so that sometimes it did not go on because one of them had reached progress faster or connection errors (despite a two-sided perfect connection). Fortunately, this only led to going into the main menu for a short time and accepting loading times because the co-op partner was still playing on a One X. Annoying and definitely open to criticism, but not a complete break because the save points were set well.ConclusionSo far the best part of the series for us and very fun, exciting and also surprising. Unfortunately, the horror is neglected again. 8/10 demons.

Supermassive Games is responsible for the most compelling interactive movies around, and House of Ashes proves that the Dark Pictures Anthology is on solid footing after a divisive second entry. While it shares the same basic structure of the previous two games — a mismatched group explores an abandoned location, discovering the secrets of what happened there — it’s so wildly different in tone and theme that it feels nothing like the others. This was a big swing in a few different ways, and I’m glad to say that they knocked it out of the park.

I just felt the horror adventure wasn't that interesting in the end and the characters were kind of annoying and uninteresting. Just when the game was getting more interesting, it ended. This is the game that you are supposed to play more than once but I just don't feel any motivation to play again. It would be nice if they changed some of the gameplay mechanics up as it feels like it's getting repetitive since they are the same in each anthology game. Also, most of the setting was very dark and not very interesting. I'm not sure if I would play another anthology game after this.

Very good game. I love the story. So much better than overrated gta games with nothing special. But everyone specially ignored it. Very sad.

House of Ashes is the best episode in the Dark Pictures Anthology so far. Some adjustments and additions add more depth to the experience, and while some cons from previous episodes persist, the overall quality of the experience is higher.

While not perfect, Supermassive Games hears players and House of Ashes is the best release in the Dark Pictures Anthology to date. The improved game mechanics, environment and story make it a creepy experience that is perfect for Halloween.

House of Ashes will not be remembered as a horror masterpiece in video games, but it is a good excuse to gather friends or family for a different night; already almost traditional. And thanks to that, the experience earns many points.

If only House of Ashes were possessed with something malevolent enough to actually scare us; sadly, it commits a litany of sins, none of them original.

If you enjoyed the first two games, there is some fun to be had in House of Ashes, but glitches, a predictable story structure and some boring jump scares holds it back from being a truly worthy sequel.

Easily the best of the Dark Pictures Anthology series, which finally manages to serve up some interesting characters and effective horror scenes, with an appealingly gothic atmosphere.

House of Ashes marks a change of pace from previous episodes of the Dark Pictures Anthology, offering a horror story that also focuses heavily on action. The plot, which incorporates elements of films such as Aliens, Predator and The Descent, does not shine for originality, but is overall enjoyable and sufficiently articulated. There is still some occasional uncertainty in the interactions between characters, but overall the dialogues are good and the narrative crossroads are numerous and lead to endings that have significant differences between them. The new gameplay features do not change the gaming experience, but improve it slightly, while graphics/sound remains on good standards.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes is far and away the best Dark Pictures game so far. It blends intriguing characters, compelling drama, and a killer twist to offer up what can only be described as the most honed experience Supermassive has put out in this series so far. It's got a few minor issues here and there – namely relating to the diversity of its cast and how much each of them plays into the overall story – but it's a horror experience that no fan should miss even if they weren't fans of Man of Medan or Little Hope.

House of Ashes can be, at times, a rewarding experience; however, the developers, in order to achieve a remarkable result in graphics, have neglected too much the pace and the interaction with the player.

House of Ashes has its flaws, especially on a technical level, but it is clear that things happened since Man of Medan. More intriguing, richer and better staged than its predecessors, the third installment of the Dark Pictures Anthology easily manages to rise to the top. And we can say Supermassive Games is on the right track. We are already looking forward to discovering how they will manage to surprise us on the next episode.

The Dark Pictures: House of Ashes is unfortunately a step backwards compared to the previous episodes of the series, at least in terms of the script, atmosphere and technical realization. The affordable price makes it interesting for those who don't want to miss a single chapter of the anthology, but others should turn to the previous chapters or wait for a possible fourth episode capable of bringing the horror series back on the right tracks.

In all, House of Ashes feels marginally better than Little Hope, which I felt was certainly better than Man of Medan. That means The Dark Pictures entries are, by my measure, on an upward trajectory, and I sincerely hope Supermassive is able to make more of them. While I don't think this series has achieved its full potential yet, I think it's just one really great script away from achieving that. As a game, The Dark Pictures is in a great place now. As a script, this third entry in the series goes for The Descent and winds up only decent.
