  • Verdict 8 10 0 1 Hollowbody is a fantastic homage to 6th-gen survival horror, whilst maintaining a distinct style and knowing when to utilise those retro mechanics.

  • In the end, Hollowbody provides a nostalgic experience for fans of British survival horror at the price of a large takeaway pizza (£14.20), encapsulating both the triumphs and shortcomings of the genre, making it a worthwhile choice for an engaging evening for fans of horror games that like them with a sprinkle of nostalgia.

  • Hollowbody is a wonderful throwback to the golden age of survival horror games in the sixth console generation with an interesting and engaging story and excellent sound design.

  • At a glance, it’s clear that Silent Hill and Resident Evil were major influences on indie horror game Hollowbody. While its retro PS2-style visuals are what initially drew me toward the game, inside of that is a competent survival horror experience that, while not doing too many things different from its predecessors, establishes a world and setting that’s worth exploring. If you’re looking for a game to scratch the itch of those classic survival horror experiences, Hollowbody is definitely worth your time.

  • Hollowbody embodies the spirit of classic PS2-era horror games, especially Silent Hill 2. It offers horror game enthusiasts an immersive experience with its evocative atmosphere, intricate puzzles, and strategic combat.

  • Hollowbody offers a compelling retro-modern survival horror experience. Set in a decayed exclusion zone, players control Mica as she searches for her missing partner, unraveling a tense and atmospheric story. With fixed camera angles, limited resources, and environmental puzzles, the game pays homage to classic horror titles like Silent Hill and Resident Evil. While combat and puzzle balance may falter, the game’s immersive world-building and attention to detail make it a must-play for fans of the genre.

  • Hollowbody is a testament to the work of Hamley, and is phenomenal within its own right, but the dedication to various cult classic horror and sci-fi games only adds to how enamored I was with the game; this is how you make a game heavily inspired by other media while making a whole new experience entirely, in a nutshell. But don’t get me wrong, Hollowbody is so much more than its inspirations, made up of multiple moving parts that provide fans of the survival horror genre with something new and refreshing.

  • Hollowbody has a pretty fascinating atmosphere and really strong vibes, but fails to deliver a fleshed-out survival horror experience. The game is clearly inspired by classic PS2 titles in the genre, but this comes at the expense of the game offering unique mechanics or a thoughtful narrative. And while I have pretty strong feelings about Hollowbody, I still want to jump back into New Game+ and try to get other endings and find answers to the mystery, no matter how vague they might be.
