The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan

2019 Supermassive Games

The Dark Pictures Anthology is a series of stand-alone, branching cinematic horror games that can also be played online with a friend. In Man of Medan, five friends set sail on a holiday diving trip that soon changes into something much more sinister.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan
HORROR CENTRALITY
92 /100

The Dark Pictures Man of Medan centers on fear, suspense, and vulnerable player choices. Horror is integral to the intended experience—survival pressure, disturbing imagery, and supernatural threats drive the core gameplay and player feelings. While it includes branching narratives and some action elements, removing horror would fundamentally undermine its identity as a cinematic horror experience, not merely a game with horror aesthetics.
