Critic Reviews
Daymare: 1998 Review
I would certainly recommend this game to fans of the early Resident Evil games but if you aren’t a fan of those games I could see it getting old fast, as most of the “nostalgia” of the game consists of dated mechanics in combat and puzzle solving.

The survival horror genre has two heavy hitters – Resident Evil and Silent Hill – and one of those remains dormant. For now at least.
