I really love Fobia. I know my review focused more on the negative but I can’t really go into puzzles without entirely spoiling them and that is where I got most of my enjoyment. I’ve never finished a game for review before and started it back up immediately to enter a New Game + mode, that is how much I love Fobia. I had some technical issues in the later portion of the game that I assume is because I am playing on an original model of Xbox One and they were easily solved by simply saving the game and restarting it. Anyone who has played Resident Evil: Village and is looking for an inexpensive, well made horror game that was clearly made by fans of the genre will likely find a lot to enjoy. I also still think anyone who likes metroidvanias should give this a shot too. I can’t wait to see what Pulsatrix Studios does next.

Those are small complaints though. The Eternal Cylinder is a fever dream of a title that satisfies a lot of my tastes: exploration, puzzles, survival, lots of different abilities, truly alien landscapes, geometric shapes that desire uniformity through destruction of all of life, and hoarding. Oh, and quite a bit of heart. Nothing here feels so alien that I can’t feel something for this world except the familiar but nightmarish servants that stand out in this world. I think ACE Team has something really special here and I really can’t think of anything else that does all of what The Eternal Cylinder as good as The Eternal Cylinder does.
