  Verdict 8 10 0 1 Hollowbody is a fantastic homage to 6th-gen survival horror, whilst maintaining a distinct style and knowing when to utilise those retro mechanics.

  In the end, Hollowbody provides a nostalgic experience for fans of British survival horror at the price of a large takeaway pizza (£14.20), encapsulating both the triumphs and shortcomings of the genre, making it a worthwhile choice for an engaging evening for fans of horror games that like them with a sprinkle of nostalgia.

  Hollowbody is a wonderful throwback to the golden age of survival horror games in the sixth console generation with an interesting and engaging story and excellent sound design.

  At a glance, it’s clear that Silent Hill and Resident Evil were major influences on indie horror game Hollowbody. While its retro PS2-style visuals are what initially drew me toward the game, inside of that is a competent survival horror experience that, while not doing too many things different from its predecessors, establishes a world and setting that’s worth exploring. If you’re looking for a game to scratch the itch of those classic survival horror experiences, Hollowbody is definitely worth your time.
