6.1
In the end, Obscure lives up to its name. It's competent enough as far as blatant ripoffs of the great-granddaddy of survival horror go, but so much has been cobbled together that the game has no distinct identity of its own.

Critic reviews
- 6.7Obscure is a decent, entertaining and at time frightening survival-horror game. It plays out very similar to the teen-horror films it is based upon. The multiple character option is a unique idea and the overall look of the game is dark and moody. But the same tired cliches of past survival-horror games pop up all the time during the game. The story line is interesting but it’s not something that you haven’t seen in a horror film already. Obscure will be more than enough for gamers looking for their next scare, but will leave other gamers looking for more.
- Non pas que le jeu fasse vraiment peur à l'image d'un Silent Hill, c'est une ambiance plus proche d'un Resident Evil qui se dégage, si bien qu'on sursaute souvent lorsqu'un monstre apparaît bien évidemment, au moment où on s'y attend le moins ! Certes, le jeu se termine rapidement mais contrairement à ses concurrents, la durée de vie n'est pas artificiellement gonflée par des allers-retours fastidieux.
