Gamers have been regularly dished a healthy helping of war horrors, whether it has been the emotional Valiant Hearts, or indeed FPS, Isonzo. Conscript takes things to another level, in a super-disturbing action-adventure title that throws you deep into the trenches.
Tension and Horror Aplenty
Now available on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC, Conscript takes all the best bits from old-school horror titles like the OG Resident Evil, and distils this into a traumatising WW1 story.
Playing as a French soldier in 1916, you must survive the Battle of Verdun whilst tracking down your missing brother. Along the way, you’ll come across enemy soldiers, and must use weaponry and grenades to take them down. It’s classic survival horror fare, with an intriguing story premise and unique retro visual style.
