Harvester (1996) Review & Discussion - Silent Evil Podcast 17 - Survival Horror

Описание: Spencer and Cameron are going back to 1996 with the PC Point and Click Horror Adventure, Harvester. Probably one of the most brutal games out there in both violence, content, and humor. A game that puts the last 25 years plus of games to shame at how tame they are compared to the onslaught that this journey takes us on.

You play as Steve, a man who wakes up in a 1950s town with amnesia and has no idea what is going on. Except that everyone is telling you that you are getting married to a girl named Stephanie who also has amnesia. So, you go out and explore the town, meet the interesting characters about, and solve some mysteries while trying to make all head and tails of what is happening. You find The Lodge, a temple in the center of town that everything revolves around and then try to become a member.

This game is just beyond amazing in everything that it delivers, even if the controls are a little cumbersome at times. But the story is full tilt interesting to the very in, the characters are both ultra dark and hilarious all at the same time, and the classic horror elements of a Twilight Zone mystery are all there. This game came out the same year as Resident Evil 1 so you can see those proto horror game pieces coming together. With a live action style of graphics and FMVs, makes the game feel ultra realistic, especially for the time.

So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next.
