Author's Thoughts:

Cronos: The New Dawn is one of those games that just pulls you in with its atmosphere from the get-go - I really enjoyed the sci-fi setting and mysterious story that both set the mood early. Yes, enemy variety is somewhat limited, and combat is a little clunky at times but despite that, it’s still a lot of fun. The creepy locations, unravelling the mystery behind the story, and the constant suspense make this an easy game for me to recommend - especially if you are into games like _Dead Space_, or just love atmospheric horror in general. Check it out!
