Black Iris, The Arboreta Games 2021

1983. North East Scotland. An engineer is sent to an abandoned, clandestine research facility and is tasked with decommissioning equipment and gathering research material left by scientists. As the engineer travels deeper into the void, they are thrust into an unstable world of phantasmagorical horrors. There are so many neat touches, like the occasional shift to Resident Evil-style fixed cameras, the surreal, distorted dream sequences, and the fuzzy videos that use old science stock footage to creepy effect. You are presented with a uniquely horrifying world without the need to shove gore in your face or hide jump scares around every corner. It's an unnerving experience that feels like a Lovecraft short story where you explore a small open world in a play time of around 20-30 minutes.
