Critic Reviews
Perception Review
A great idea squandered on a dull game, Perception's execution repeatedly fails to match its ambition.
48%Perception Review - A Different Perspective
Perception's blindness is both its biggest strength and weakness. While it did lead to some frustrating moments of being lost without a clue what to do, it also meant really having to think about the environment and truly wondering what each noise what. Perception was ultimately terrifying when it was at its best.

Perception offers a decent set of horror stories, but exploring this house gets dull pretty quickly.
