Description

Gloomwood is a stealth horror FPS that follows your mysterious abduction to a forgotten, twisted Victorian metropolis in the midst of a horrifying transformation. Wield your canesword and take to the shadows as you uncover the accursed mystery hidden within the fog.

The producers of DUSK, AMID EVIL, ULTRAKILL and FAITH bring you a frightening, gothic immersive sim full of haunted streets, dark tunnels and decadent mansions.

  • An intricate, hand-crafted city with freeform exploration - from towering rooftops down to hidden passages, the routes you take and paths you make, are your choice.

  • A detailed stealth and sound system that tracks your light visibility and propagates noise accurately through the world. Tread lightly. Or prepare to get loud.

  • A unique arsenal to meet any situation - a stealthy canesword, six-shot revolver, folding shotgun, hand-placed traps, rope-slinging harpoon rifle and more.

  • In-depth player interactivity, from leaning to eavesdrop, peeking through door cracks, checking the bullets in your firearms and mantling onto ledges.

  • A mob of ghastly denizens and monsters with acute senses, like the sharp-clawed Crowmen and the fearsome, cadaver-seeking Corpse Duster.

  • Gloomwood is full of objects to pick up, throw, climb, smash and use to your advantage.
    There is more to this city than you can possibly imagine...

INCREDIBLE. There is so much freedom in your approach to the world and it rewards exploration so well. I can't wait for the bank update. I was able to reach the bank (end of current content as of review) in about 6

I remember the first time I played Thief 1 (1998) on a PC Gamer demo disc. I replayed Lord Bafford's Manor so many times until a friend gave me his full copy he got bundled with his graphics card. After Thief 2, the

I have no idea truly what genre captures what this game is, but I wish there were more like it. When another review said that Gloomwood revived their love of gaming, I thought that was being a little dramatic but that's

it's shaping up to be one of the best imsims released in recent years. levels are dense, can be tackled in multiple ways and never feel dull, even when they decide to lean towards survival horror. sound design is also

The experimenting doctor mechanic is awesome. It's easily my favorite part of the game; Love thinking about how I'm going to manage to abduct a beast's corpse back to may lab. Being able to use the serums as disguises
