Dementium: The Ward Reviewed

Filed in archive Nintendo DS on November 17, 2007

I've been looking forward to seeing if Dementium: The ward was up to much ever since the trailer came out. Survival Horror on the DS is a great prospect, so what's the verdict?




Portable Video Gamer has a full review of the title, and while there are some issues, like a crappy save game feature, it largely fares very well, especially by way of visuals and sound:

"Gorgeously gory visuals push the DS graphics engine to great extents. No matter how many enemies are on screen, gameplay remains smooth and flawless. Attention to detail and an overall creepy design easily make up for the repetitiveness of the level environments. Dementium's soundtrack is also good, with great-sounding atmospheric elements such as your enemies' growls and your own heartbeat. This is all put together with some 'terroresque' piano tracks. Dementium is a pleasure to look at and listen to."
